  • 1.  How can you just rerun the compliance check for a policy?

    Posted May 18, 2012 09:05 AM

    I have a software policy that I have sent to all of my PCs.  A handful of PCs have required manual remediation to get the update to run.  Once the root problem was resolved, I used RAAD2 to rerun the program successfully. While the PC is now compliant, the Software Compliance by Managed Delivery report still shows these manually remediated PCs as non-compliant.  I know I can add another schedule to the policy to get the entire policy to rerun for everyone, but I would prefer to selectively rerun the compliance check on just the PCs that I touched.

    Is this do-able?  Is there a better way to remediate individual computers so the policy reruns just on PCs where it is not compliant?

    Thanks!

    Hi MargeE,

    You may create custom search by using Installed software filter:

    After that you may use this filter in custom target for your policy:

    To rerun a policy on only some clients i have this ideas so far:

    - run them manually from the agent ("user can run")

    - stop the agent, delete the policy files and start the agent (all policies will rerun!!!)

    - remove the clients from the target. Give the agents time to update and remove the policy (only works for managed delivery). Add them to the target again.

    Did your original Managed Software Delivery run once, or on a schedule?  If you have a schedule, it should re-run on the non-compliant systems, changing them to appear compliant.
