Filesystem scan configuration
If you are using the PCI DSS checklist for AIX 7 or AIX 6, you can further configure the range of filesystems and directories to be included in the property file used for relevance evaluation.
Some of the AIX Fixlets verify attributes and ownership of various subsets of files on local
drives, including the property file that is created by the Environment Setup
Task. This property file denotes the list of files that are used by the Fixlets in the
checklist for AIX. It contains a list of all local and regular files with the exclusion of remote
filesystems and special filesystems such as /tmp or /dev.
BigFix provides the globalfind feature to help prevent multiple scanning of local filesystems, which in turn provides better performance results.
