About HiScan command execution
Specifying the HiScan command configures Device Manager agents to send information to the server
on a regular basis. You can schedule HiScan for hourly, daily, or weekly execution.
NOTE:
If you specify once-a-week execution periods, you must also specify the day of the week you want
the scan to run.
If no HiScan execution periods are set, agents do not regularly send acquired information to the
server.
To reduce P9000 Command View Advanced Edition Software server loads when agents are installed
on multiple hosts, specify once-a-day or once-a-week executions and verify that multiple HiScans do
not run simultaneously.
For Windows, the batch file exeHiScan.bat with the HiScan settings is registered as a Windows
task.
