IJ04197 9.2.11 When License Metric Tool cannot download data from the BigFix server for a specific endpoint, software detected on that endpoint may be marked as uninstalled, even though it is still present. As a result, the software might not be reported for this endpoint, or can be duplicated on the Software Classification panel. The fix prevents the issue from reoccurring. The duplicated entries remain, as they do not have negative impact on the license usage. In case the discovery is missing, applying Force Reupload of Software Scan Results fixlet will resolve the issue.
IJ03008 9.2.10.1 After upgrading to License Metric Tool 9.2.10, all instances of components that were suppressed are reassigned to default products. Depending on the license metric that the default product uses, the reassigned components might contribute to license metric utilization that is reported on the All IBM Metrics report. Components that were suppressed before upgrading to version 9.2.10 are suppressed again. If you confirmed the suppression in the past, verify that it is still confirmed after upgrading to version 9.2.10.1. If not, confirm the suppression.
