The version (e.g. Lin:8.1) corresponds to the version of the IEM product (8.1) in which the inspector was introduced in the client on that platform.
The version number is not shown if it is less than 8.0.
These are the keywords associated with properties that can be inspected while BigFix Actions are being executed.
actionCreation Methods| Declaration | Description | Platforms (?) |
| action | Returns the action currently being parsed. | Win, Lin, Sol, HPUX, AIX, Mac, WM, Ubu:8.1 |
| action <integer> | Returns the action matching the <integer> id. | Win, Lin, Sol, HPUX, AIX, Mac, WM, Ubu:8.1 |
| active action | Returns the action currently executing. | Win, Lin, Sol, HPUX, AIX, Mac, WM, Ubu:8.1 |
| relevant offer action of <site> | Returns the list of relevant actions that are offers for the specified site. This Inspector could be useful in a client UI dashboard listing the current set of relevant offers. | Win:8.0, Lin:8.0, Sol:8.0, HPUX:8.0, AIX:8.0, Mac:8.0, Ubu:8.1 |
Properties| Declaration | Return type | Description | Platforms (?) |
| active of <action> | <boolean> Plural: actives | Returns TRUE if the action is currently running (active). | Win, Lin, Sol, HPUX, AIX, Mac, WM, Ubu:8.1 |
| active start time of <action> | <time> Plural: active start times | Returns the time the action started. | Win, Lin, Sol, HPUX, AIX, Mac, WM, Ubu:8.1 |
| complete time of <action> | <time> Plural: complete times | Returns the time the action completed. | Win, Lin, Sol, HPUX, AIX, Mac, WM, Ubu:8.1 |
| constrained of <action> | <boolean> Plural: constraineds | Returns TRUE if action is unable to run yet. | Win, Lin, Sol, HPUX, AIX, Mac, WM, Ubu:8.1 |
| exit code of <action> | <integer> Plural: exit codes | Returns an integer corresponding to the exit code of the specified action. This value will not exist if the action has not yet produced an exit code. | Win:8.0, Lin:8.0, Sol:8.0, HPUX:8.0, AIX:8.0, Mac:8.0, Ubu:8.1 |
| group leader of <action> | <boolean> Plural: group leaders | Returns TRUE if the action is a group action and the action component is the group leader. When you deploy a mult-action from the BES Console, it constructs a group action with a group leader to control the overall behavior of the action. This inspector is used internally to manage the progress of the group action. | Win, Lin, Sol, HPUX, AIX, Mac, WM, Ubu:8.1 |
| id of <action> | <integer> Plural: ids | Returns the numeric ID associated with the specified Action. | Win, Lin, Sol, HPUX, AIX, Mac, WM, Ubu:8.1 |
| last change time of <action> | <time> Plural: last change times | Returns the time when the action state last changed. | Win, Lin, Sol, HPUX, AIX, Mac, WM, Ubu:8.1 |
| offer accepted of <action> | <boolean> Plural: offer accepteds | Returns TRUE when users indicated they want to run the action by accepting the offer presented by the BES Client UI. When an offer has been accepted, the Client evaluates its constraints and runs as soon as conditions allow. | Win, Lin, Sol, HPUX, AIX, Mac, WM, Ubu:8.1 |
| offer of <action> | <boolean> Plural: offers | Returns TRUE when the Action is presented as an offer (as indicated by the header "x-offer: 1"). | Win, Lin, Sol, HPUX, AIX, Mac, WM, Ubu:8.1 |
| origin fixlet id of <action> | <integer> Plural: origin fixlet ids | Returns the Fixlet id that contained the action. | Win, Lin, Sol, HPUX, AIX, Mac, WM, Ubu:8.1 |
| parameter <string> of <action> | <string> Plural: parameters | Returns the value of parameter <string> for the active Action. Parameters only live as long as the action is active. Among the inspectable parameters is the 'action issue date' that is added to each Action by the BigFix Console at issue time. | Win, Lin, Sol, HPUX, AIX, Mac, WM, Ubu:8.1 |
| pending login of <action> | <boolean> Plural: pending logins | Returns TRUE if the specified action included an 'action requires login' command, and a login has not yet occurred since the action has run. | Win, Lin, Sol, HPUX, AIX, Mac, WM, Ubu:8.1 |
| pending of <action> | <boolean> Plural: pendings | Returns TRUE if action is available to run. | Win, Lin, Sol, HPUX, AIX, Mac, WM, Ubu:8.1 |
| pending restart of <action> | <boolean> Plural: pending restarts | Returns TRUE if the specified action included an 'action requires restart' command and a restart has not occurred since the action has run. | Win, Lin, Sol, HPUX, AIX, Mac, WM, Ubu:8.1 |
| pending time of <action> | <time> Plural: pending times | Returns the time the action became pending. | Win, Lin, Sol, HPUX, AIX, Mac, WM, Ubu:8.1 |
| status of <action> | <string> Plural: statuss | Returns one of the following strings: Running = when the action is currently active. Executed = no longer relevant and action has completed. Not Relevant = action was not relevant. Waiting = action is relevant, but waiting to run. Not Executed = action is relevant, unconstrained, but has not yet started. Failed = action is relevant, unconstrained, has completed, but is still relevant. | Win, Lin, Sol, HPUX, AIX, Mac, WM, Ubu:8.1 |
| waiting for download of <action> | <boolean> Plural: waiting for downloads | Returns TRUE if client is waiting for mirroring server to have downloads required by the action. | Win, Lin, Sol, HPUX, AIX, Mac, WM, Ubu:8.1 |
