/TITLE=title-string None.

restrictions


Parameters

assessment-name

Name of the assessment.

Description

Start the collection of security data from tributary nodes.

Qualifiers

/AFTER=absolute-time

/NOAFTER (D)

Requests that the specified assessment not be made until the specified time. If the specified time has already passed, the assessment is started immediately.

You can specify either an absolute time or a combination of absolute and delta times. See the VMS documentation for complete information on specifying time values.

/INTERVAL=delta-time

/NOINTERVAL (D)

Requests that the specified assessment be re-run at regular intervals. See the VMS documentation for complete information on specifying delta time values.

If you specify both /AFTER=absolute-time and /INTERVAL=delta-time, the first assessment will be made at <absolute-time> and after that subsequent assessments will be made every <delta-time>.

When specifying /INTERVAL=delta-time you should ensure that <delta-time> is long enough to allow one run of an assessment to complete before the next run of that assessment is to start.

/METHOD=(ALL)

/METHOD=(AUTOMATIC_TESTING)

/METHOD=(COMPENSATING_CONTROLS)

/METHOD=(INTERVIEW)

/METHOD=(INVASIVE_TESTING)

/METHOD=(MANUAL_EXAMINATION)

/METHOD=(QUICK)

Specifies the assessment methods to be used for one or more nodes in an assessment, overriding that assigned by the MODIFY ASSESSMENT command: This qualifier can accept a list of methods inside the parentheses, such as:


/METHODS=(QUICK,INVASIVE_TESTING) 
If only one method is being specified, the parentheses are not required.

/TITLE=title-string

Specifies the title-string that should be used on reports from this assessment.

Example


$ LJK/SECURITY RUN MY_SPECIAL/AFTER="21:00"
      

Run assessment MY_SPECIAL today at 9 pm.


$ LJK/SECURITY RUN WEEKLY_FULL/AFTER="TOMORROW+0-03"/INTERVAL="7-"

None.

Although this command is available for explicit use, there are no particular circumstances in which SHUTDOWN is recommended by LJK Software.


Qualifiers

None.
