  • 1.  Asset Management Agent Scheduling

    Posted Jul 15, 2016 07:17 AM


    Hi guys, can't seem to find a good guide on AM agent scheduling. been looking at this one:

    but it doesn't explain hints mode. I have a requirement to run certain asset jobs every hour.

    Here is a doc. about hint mode:

    TEC464426

    What does 'Run the UAM agent in USD Hint Mode' configuration policy do?

    Thanks Henry! My servers only have the AM Agent so i guess I should just changed the UAM schedule to run every hour with a configuration policy

    If you change the AM Agent to run every hour to support this requirement I strongly suggest you change your hardware inventory modules schedule to limit to once a day otherwise you will be flooded with data. Consider doing the same to any other modules and AM jobs you may have.

    Thanks Stephen, yes I already have my hardware inventories running once per day and my software scanners once per week during a maintenance window.

    Yes, also this doc may be useful if you want to make a separate scheduled task:
