SA Client Library

The SA Client Library provides flexibility in searching for and displaying Ubuntu packages and metadata by Object ID, Created or Modified Date, operating system, and so on.

In the content pane, a dimmed package icon indicates that the package’s binary file has not been uploaded to the Library. After you upload the binary, the icon shows as Active. Use the column selector to control the columns of package metadata data that you want to display.

Because the Library is integrated with Ubuntu package metadata, you can review vendor information in real-time in the preview pane.

Ubuntu packages and metadata in the SA Client Library

Prerequisites - Patching a managed server

To patch an managed server, the following prerequisites must be met:

Ubuntu metadata must be imported into SA.
A compliance scan must be performed on the managed server after metadata import.

See the SA 10.5 Support and Compatibility Matrix for platform version support information.

Patch and patch policy search

In the SA Client, you can search for information about your operational environment by using the SA Client Search feature. The Search feature enables you to search for packages, patch policies, servers, and so on. See “SA Client Search” in the SA 10.51 Use section.
