11.2.4 List scanned computers
GFI LanGuard maintains a global list of scanned computers for licensing purposes. Any computers in
excess of what is specified in the licensing information are not scanned.
GFI LanGuard enables systems administrators to delete scanned computers in order to release
licenses that were previously utilized.
To delete computers previously scanned:
1. Click Configuration tab > Database Maintenance Options > Manage list of scanned computers.
2. Select the computers to delete and click Delete selected computer(s).
IMPORTANT
Deleting computers from the database is a one–way operation that will also delete all
computer related data from the database. Once deleted, this data is no longer
available.
11.2.5 Configure advanced database maintenance options
GFI LanGuard enables you to repair and compact the Access
™
database backend automatically to
improve performance.
During compaction, the database files are reorganized and records that have been marked for
deletion are removed. In this way, you can regain used storage space. During this process, GFI
LanGuard also repairs corrupted database backend files. Corruption may occur for various reasons. In
most cases, a Access
™
database is corrupted when the database is unexpectedly closed before records
are saved (for example, due to a power failure, unresponsive operations forced reboots, and so on).
