Unfortunately, the size of the initial request sent to Agents for which patch assessment data exists in the
Collector causes problems. The size of this initial request can cause the ListenerWorkerDaemon and Agent
processes to grow to over 500 MB each. To protect the Agent machine from excessively large VCM
processes pre-5.0 Agents are set up to shut themselves down when they exceed ~150MB; post-5.0 Agents
are allowed to grow to ~380MB.
Directories Created During an Inspection
The Collector specific data model
When a Collector first contacts the Agent, it will replicate its data model to the Agent. The Agent will store
this as a Birdstep database as a sub-directory of the DtmDB/RDM directory. The directory will be named
with the name of the Collector. Note that is a direct child of the RDM directory.
If this directory is deleted, the next collection will fail. The subsequent collection will re-replicate the data
model.

The Collector specific inspection directory
When an inspection occurs, a sub-directory of /opt/CMAgent/data will be created for the Collector.
/opt/CMAgent/data/DVSUP-INSTALL:
drwxrwx--- 2 nobody cfgsoft 4096 May 20 14:11 Master
drwxrwx--- 2 nobody cfgsoft 4096 May 20 14:12 Package
The Master directory contains the inspected data and is used when performing deltas. There is 1 .mfl file
per data class collected. If these files are deleted, the next collection will act as a full collect.
