Landesk process ldiscn32.exe taking up 99% cpu on startup
Landesk process ldiscn32.exe taking up 99% cpu on startup. I want to write a script that will change the runtime of this process. I found a resolution but not quite sure how/where to run the script locally on my PC. How do I use the start command in XP? It also suggests a local script can be created and added to a local scheduler, would this be a better option?
Problems/Symptoms:
The vulnerability scanner can use a lot of processor time. This can cause a large delay on workstations. The vulnerability scanner can be configured to run in a lower process priority class to make the scanner's activity more transparent to the user.
Fix:
This can be done with the "START" command that is built into Microsoft* Windows operating systems. The start command allows you to run a process in a different priority class than the default 'Normal' one.
Create a new custom script using the example below. A local scheduler script can also be created, and added to the local scheduler on clients.
EXAMPLE SCRIPTS. ************************** ********** ********** ********** ********** ********** **
FOR A SCHEDULED VULNERABILITY SCAN
[MACHINES_WIN]
REMEXEC01=cmd /c start /BELOWNORMAL "%LDMS_CLIENT_DIR%\Vulscan .exe" /AgentBehavior=1, STATUS
************************** ********** ********** ********** ********** ********** **
FOR A LOCAL SCHEDULER TASK
[MACHINES_WIN]
REMEXEC01=<qt/>%LDMS_CLIEN T_DIR%\Loc alSch.exe< qt/> /del /range=%quote%1001|2000%qu ote%
REMEXEC1001=<qt/>%LDMS_CLI ENT_DIR%\L ocalSch.ex e<qt/> /exe=%quote%cmd /c start /BELOWNORMAL %LDMS_CLIENT_DIR%\vulscan. exe /AgentBehavior=1%quote% /cmd=%quote%%quote% /taskid=1001 /freq=86400
