At times, it may be necessary to determine what commands were executed and what data was gathered by Inventory Solution on a Unix, Linux or Macintosh client. To collect this information from a Unix, Linux or Macintosh (ULM) machine, please do the following:

1.On the client side insert the following line at the end of the /opt/altiris/notification/nsagent/bin/aex-env file. The “cache”, or output directory & filename, can be modified as desired.

AEX_LAUNCHER_HOST="sys://localhost?mode=sys&cache=/tmp/cache.out"

export AEX_LAUNCHER_HOST

2. Restart agent using the command:     aex-helper agent restart

3. Run an appropriate inventory task from NS.

4. Review the cache/output file. It will be in xml format and contain the command executed and the data returned by the command. If requested, send the output file to Symantec technical support.
