Issue/Introduction

 

Resolution

By default RTCI will try to dynamically resolve host names for tasks and 1:1 management. It is possible to change this behavior with specifying non-zero value for this key. In this case IP address for host will be taken from database. This can greatly improve performance for tasks with thousands resource targets and fix some problems with invalid DNS configurations. This is only available in RTCI 7.1 and above.

Create a new registry value in the KEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Altiris\eXpress\RTCI key.

UseDatabaseIP (DWORD) and set it to a non-zero value.
