HCL-BF-PRO-10 Exam Dumps - HCLSoftware U Certified Professional-BigFix Platform 1

According to the BigFix Platform documentation, the upgrade Fixlet in the Support site does not upgrade a remote server correctly. You must run the full BigFix server installer to perform the upgrade. Remote database setups might encounter problems during upgrade and require resetting database connection settings after manually running the BigFix Server installer1.

The upgrade procedure is as follows:

• Upgrade the Server Installers using the Support Fixlets.
• Run the Server installer as a user that has DB Owner or SA permissions to the database server. The installer recognizes that the Server is at an earlier version and asks if you want to upgrade to the latest version.
• Run the BigFix Administrator Tool (BESAdmin.exe) to update the remote database tables; you will be prompted for the site admin password. Note: The BESAdmin.exe should be run automatically, if your account has the DB Owner or SA privileges to the remote database.
• The BigFix server is now correctly upgraded.

The other options (A, B, and C) are not correct because:

• Running the server installer as a local administrator does not guarantee that the user has the appropriate database permissions.
• Using the upgrade Fixlets from the console does not work for a remote server setup.
• Upgrading the server installers and using the upgrade Fixlets from the BigFix Console is redundant and unnecessary.

• A Non-Master operator can create a Retrieved Property by creating an Analysis, which is a collection of properties and relevance expressions that can be evaluated on a set of computers1.
• To create an Analysis, the operator needs to have the Create Custom Content permission and the Read permission on the site where the Analysis will be created2.
• To create an Analysis, the operator can follow these steps3:
• After creating the Analysis, the operator can activate it by right-clicking on it and choosing Activate from the context menu. The Analysis will then be evaluated on the computers that match the relevance expression and the property values will be reported to the server4.
• The operator can view the property values by selecting the Analysis from the Analyses list area in the Console and then selecting the Results tab. The property values will be displayed in the columns corresponding to the property names.
• The operator can also use the property values as filters, sorts, or targets in other Console features, such as computer listings, Fixlet actions, or Web Reports.
