21427 Server-side matching algorithm for processor brand If a few entries from the processors table have the same brand but different number of sockets, the enhanced algorithm looks for the smallest PVU row that has the number of sockets greater than the number of discovered sockets. For example: the discovered processor is Intel Xeon CPU X7560 @ 2.27 GHz. The following three entries exist in the processors table.
  1. Xeon, 2S - model X7560
  2. Xeon, 4S - model X7560
  3. Xeon, 8S - model X7560
Based on the brand and the closest number of sockets, processors are matched in the following way.
  • Processor with one or two sockets are matched with the first row.
  • Processors with three or four sockets to the second row.
  • Processors with five, six, seven, or eight to the last row.

20189 PVU matching algorithm for sockets An enhanced algorithm matches all configurations that have the number of sockets equal to or lower than the number of sockets that is defined in the PVU table. If an exact match is not possible, the algorithm looks for the smallest PVU row that has the number of sockets greater than the number of discovered sockets. For example: three sockets are discovered. Their models, types, and vendors are properly matched in the PVU table, but there is no match for the number of sockets. However, the following three entries are found in the PVU table.
  1. PVU entry 2S, 70 PVU
  2. PVU entry 4S, 100 PVU
  3. PVU entry 8S, 120 PVU
The algorithm looks for the first entry with the number of sockets greater than the number of discovered sockets. Thus, it selects the second row with four sockets and 100 PVUs.

The algorithm is also supported on VM managers as it gathers all necessary data.

18493 AIX agent installer improvement To fulfil compatibility requirements and AIX guidelines for software installation, changes were made to AIX agent native installer that significantly changed the way in which the agent is installed.
  • New packages are by default installed in the /opt/itlm and /var/itlm directories. It is no longer possible to install an agent in a custom location. Environmental variable ILMT_INSTALL_PATH is no longer supported.
  • To move an agent to a custom location, AIX relocation mechanism that is based on User Specified Installation Location (USIL) can be used. To install an agent in a location other than the default one, -R option must be added to the installp command. For example, to install an agent in /custom_location:
    1. Create the custom_location directory: 
      mkdir /custom_location
    2. Make the directory your User Specified Installation Location (USIL): 
      mkusil -R /custom_location
    3. Install the agent in this location: 
      installp -R /custom_location -acgXd full_path_to_the_installation_package_dir
      ILMT-TAD4D-agent-7.5-aix-ppc ILMT-TAD4D-agent

IV63635 IP address 127.0.0.2 is discovered instead of the actual IP address of the agent on SUSE Linux. The problem occurs if loopback addresses different than 127.0.0.1 are discovered. Loopback addresses are not contained in the scan output. The proper IP address of the agent is displayed. 2.7.0.2044
IV63716 Hardware scan reports more processors platforms than actually exist. The problem occurs on the x86 platforms that run on the AMD processor. The problem occurs because the chip ID and core ID values are incorrectly calculated. After you install the fix, the values are properly calculated and the correct number of processors is reported. 2.7.0.2044
280777 Common Inventory Technology scanner is unable to classify drives that are mounted with automounter as local or remote. It causes that some remote shares are unnecessarily scanned. It can in turn cause degradation of the scan performance or high CPU utilization. Common Inventory Technology scans automounter configuration to avoid situations in which some remote shares are unnecessarily scanned. 2.7.0.2042
