Oval Scan: Prevent unneeded definition files from being loaded onto the client?

Hi everyone,

for the OVAL scan, KACE SMA stores over 1 GB of definition files on each client. In "C:\ProgramData\Quest \KACE\kbots_cache\packages\kbots\9\definitions"

these files are saved:

com.redhat.rhsa-RHEL7.xml

com.redhat.rhsa-RHEL8.xml

com.ubuntu.bionic.cve.oval.xml

com.ubuntu.focal.cve.oval.xml

com.ubuntu.xenial.cve.oval.xml

macos.os.cve.oval.xml

microsoft.windows.10.xml

microsoft.windows.7.xml

microsoft.windows.8.1.xml

microsoft.windows.8.xml

microsoft.windows.server.2008.r2.xml

microsoft.windows.server.2008.xml

microsoft.windows.server.2012.r2.xml

microsoft.windows.server.2012.xml

microsoft.windows.server.2016.xml

microsoft.windows.server.2019.xml

suse.linux.enterprise.server.12.xml

suse.linux.enterprise.server.15.xml

windows_i.xml

windows_p.xml

windows_v.xml


Is it possible that only the required definition files such as "microsoft.windows.10.xml" are saved on a Win10 client?


Thank you very much

All definition files are included in a zip file will be extracted on the endpoint. There is no option to exclude at this time.
