Hi,
I've been task to come up with a report using Ivanti to report on the below.
| Weekly report for workstations ON 1803 that have not security updates for 8 weeks. |
| Weekly report for workstations NOT ON 1803 that have not security updates for 8 weeks. |
I have a had a play around with query's and cant seem to get it working, would any one people able to point me in the right direction?
We are using Ivanti 2017.3.2 and I'm trying to distribute the Adobe Flash upgrade to laptops and workstations.
Some of the machines returned the following return code:
RunPackageInstall: stop on returncode=8db50005 of package=Adobe Flash Player 31.0.0.122
processing of package is complete, result -1917517819 (0x8db50005 - code 5)
All our packages are wrapped with a vb script that is creating a detailed log on the machine.
80% of the machines already processed the task successfully, but only 20% are returning this error code.
I have different packages that they behaved the same. I do know for sure that is not the package it self, because have been tested before deployment and only some of the machines return this code.
I could not find any information about this error on the Community.
Any suggestions ?
So this may help you some --> Getting started with Patch Reporting (SQL, Tables & such) .
As long as you're patching with EPM, this shouldn't be too hard to do ... if you let people patch their own machines (some companies do, I don't quite understand how / why), then things will get a bit more complicated.
Did you include "I have a browser / flash running" during your testing?
That tends to be the #1 reason why updating Flash fails usually -- open browsers.
The release is now available.

Hi,
I am an inexperienced user needing to move Landesk Management Suite 2016 (ver 10.0) to a new server. It currently resides on a win 2008 r2 server in our subnet (where the client computers reside) and I need to move it to a new server (with newer OS) in a different subnet.
What are the steps in moving the Landesk suite to a new server? What server OS would be best to put it on?
So far, we are just using inventory, remote control and want to push policies using landesk.
Thank you
Depending on what you have running/doing in your core, if you are only doing what you mention, If it was me, I would install a new core (on server 2016 Standard), create a new Agent and then use the "Old" core to push it.
You'll end up with a brand new, and clean core.

Just as a note to my fellow comrades, I would wait at least a couple of weeks to upgrade, or and, verify that the feature you use are working 100% fine, in my experience, there are always some issues that start surfacing after a new release, and by Murphy's law, it is what YOU needed. It already happened to me a couple of times.
This has official accepted as a bug ( 473782 )
>3 customers allready reported with that Issues (during it was only accesible to a closed audience)
Although the update is agent breaking, it was released anyway. Have fun out there!
I really can't understand that the first clue is always.
"You should better wait and see"!
What does that say about the quality of Ivanti EPM development? I don't think, anything good!
I distribute hundreds of patches and updates for software every week. Some of these updates have a deep impact on the client's operating system. And what happens? Nothing! It runs.
But what happens if I install an Ivanti update or releases? In the worst case, you are standing in front of a huge pile of broken clients.
Warning - Do not install 2017-3_SU5
I've been a customer for several years now and have always "waited" and always done well with it. But if you have serious problems with EPM, Support will always refer you to the updates. And when you install them immediately, everyone asks you: "Why did you install that new patches *head shaking*?
Instead of always giving EPM Development a carte blanche for bad updates through our reticence, we should insist on getting updates that work!
Kind regards, Marco

Servus Marco, (Servus is an Bavarian Word for Hello my friend)
Personally, I think that the quality of "first touch releases" has been really good in recent years.
Yes, there are differences between service updates and major releases like 2018.3.
From my point of view, it is NEVER wrong to have a small test environment. Here Ivanti is one of the few manufacturers who do not need any additional licenses or keys herefor.
Alternatively you have a good partner who is always up to date with the new versions :-) and you always can ask your Consultant.
Kind Regards Markus
Hello Markus,
yes I know, I can ask you if I need help.
But I'm really tired of it right now. It's always the same game with EPM (LDMS).
EPM agent or server have dramatic problems, support says install this or that service update.
What happens? All agents have to be deployed again. (Even if only 5 files have changed. )
And then, "hey what a surprise" - the bug is still there. The problem starts all over again.
I just say:
Issuser.exe (100% CPU) High CPU Usage by ISSUSER.exe
tmcsvc.exe (Multicast Storms in the network) Targeted Multicast Client Service Executable - tmcsvc.exe has very high CPU on all clients
mbbscanner.exe (error message on the user desktop) Re: MBBScanner has stopped working
Duplicated Device listings (by a mysterious entry in the "dbo.landesk"-table)
I could live with all that, if there where at least one working simple update mechanism and not always just the answer - REDEPLOY ALL AGENTS
(yes I know the option via patch manager - and I really like that and used it in the past - But no EPM Consultants that I met trust that thing)
Regards, Marco
I have experience with EPM and LDMS for 8 years and totally agree with Marco.
The lag of stability of agents and overall software quality is still painful and does not meet modern standards.
best regards
Nils

Hi ,
by default I have custom data configured on the Landesk console which makes PCs not up to date on Xtarction .
what are they used for? Can i delete them ?
Those are used (I imagine) for some of the reports that also come by default.
If you don't need any of those values, then yes, you can delete them.
You can always do a backup (export) and import them back if you need them.

carlos i had delete them but i see them always on my xtraction repos !!!
