Missing Directory May Cause Memory Leak on UNIX and Linux Clients
0 Votes |
Description
BES UNIX and Linux clients previous to version 5.0.11.8 have a potential memory leak if the directory used for uploading files does not exist. This directory is not created by the client until at least one file has been uploaded from the client. BigFix recommends upgrading your UNIX and Linux clients to version 5.0.11.9 or later by using the appropriate upgrade Fixlet messages in the "BES Support" Fixlet site. If you do not want to upgrade your clients yet, you can use the action below to create the appropriate folder on your clients.
