ACC Agents :: Collect Installed Software OnDemand

[Ryan Zulli]

Use case/Context ::

• To enable the enduser to run the installed software policy onDemand - not having to wait the default 24hrs.
• Standalone Installed Software policy created to avoid grabbing large payloads each time Enhanced Discovery policy was run.

Issue ::

• At the initial ACC agent deployment :
  
  • ACC-V plugin configured, collect host discovery (enhanced discovery policy) runs
    • software installed policy is set to run every 24hrs
    • users have to modify policy schedule to retrieve installed software quicker

Whats Included ::

• The included update set contains a new UI Action and Script Include (Collect Software Installed / RunInstalledSoftwareCheck). Special thanks to @Severin Launiau for working with me on this effort!
  • UI Action located on Agent record ::

• Check Recent ECC Queues to ensure the policy has triggered ::

Notes ::

• Some of the values are hardcoded - feel free to make/modify to fit your usecase

Line number 22 on the script include is hardcoded. Is this something we need to change and pass the value dynamically?
