To create a new retrieved property in BigFix, the following steps are required:

• From the BigFix Console, select Manage Properties from the Tools menu. The Manage Properties dialog is displayed.
• You can filter the properties by using the left filter panel to select a subset of the properties to view on the right. If you cannot find what you want in this list, create a new property: click Add New, then enter a name for the property and a valid Relevance expression. This can access hardware characteristics, registry entries, and even data in specific files on the client computers.
• After you define the new property, the Clients automatically compute the value of the corresponding relevance expression and return it to the Database. Click the OK button.
• The new property will be available in the column headers of computer listings, allowing you to sort and filter on its values. It can also be used to target Fixlet actions and generate Web Reports.

• The Site Administrator key is a private key that is used to perform site-level tasks such as setting global system options, editing mastheads, and administering Distributed Server Architecture (DSA)1.
• The Site Administrator key is generated during the installation of the BigFix Server, when the site administrator is prompted to enter a password to encrypt the key2.
• The Site Administrator key is stored in a file named license.pvk in the BigFix Enterprise\BES Server folder on the BigFix Server3.
• The Site Administrator key is required to run the BESAdmin.exe tool, which is used to manage the BigFix Server configuration and settings.
• The Site Administrator key is also required to create the masthead file, which is a file that contains the digital signature and configuration information of the BigFix deployment.
• The Site Administrator key is different from the Master Operator key, which is used to access the BigFix Console and create other operators.

• The download cache size on a relay or a server can be changed by using the Fixlet ID# 148 BES Relay/Server Setting: Download Cache Size, available from the BES Support Site.
• This Fixlet allows the administrator to specify the desired cache size in MB as a parameter of the action.
• To increase the cache size to 10 GB, the administrator needs to enter 10240 as the value of the parameter, since 1 GB = 1024 MB.
• The Fixlet will then create or modify the client setting _BESGather_Download_CacheLimitMB on the target relay or server, and set its value to the specified parameter.
• The Fixlet will also restart the BES Client service on the target relay or server to apply the new setting.
• The new cache size will take effect after the service restarts, and the relay or server will be able to store more downloaded files in its cache. References:

• The download size exceeds the maximum value set in the client setting
