Versions Effected: LDMS 9.6 and newer
Problem/ Scenario/ Question:
In LDMS 9.6 Software Packages will be downloaded on managed nodes in folder %ProgramData%\LANDESK\ManagementSuite\SDMCache.as opposed to
%Programfiles(x86)%\LANDesk\ldclient\SDMCache.
Erroneous Location
Correct Location
Cause:
This is caused by the file located here:
C:\ProgramData\LANDesk\TMCDownload\downloadermulticastconf.xml
The download location in the file is pointing towards the ProgramData location as opposed to our default one
Solution:
This has been identified as an 'engineering request' and has been resolved in LDMS 9.6 SP1.
Workaround:
The file that points towards this location is located here:
C:\ProgramData\LANDesk\TMCDownload\downloadermulticastconf.xml
To resolve this now you can either delete it or change the path under the 'Cache' Directory entry. Run vulscan on the end machines and this will point back towards the original location.
