Additional Information

How to Limit the number of the Vulnerabilities and packages in your SQL Database

This TID explains how to limit the size of your Vulnerabilities database (and, as a result, the number of emails you receive about new packages) by receiving only the Vulnerability Reports which apply to your network configuration.

By default, the local ZENWorks Patch Management PatchLink Server (PLUS) receives vulnerability reports for the Operating Systems that you have purchased a subscription for. These include all languages. If your current environment does not contain all of these languages, Follow the step in TID 3117120 to implement language filtering.

If your environment changes in the future, and you wish to add or remove Operating Systems from your ZENworks Patch Management Subscription. Please contact Novell Sales.
