Enabling/Disabling NG-bridge Data Updates

The Code Insight System Administrator or the database administrator can use these procedures to enable or disable the internal NG-bridge data update facility that downloads and processes the updates. By default, this update facility is initially disabled. Your site does not need to enable the facility if the scans at your site do not perform exact-file matching or if the CL is not installed.

Enabling NG-Bridge Data Updates

The Code Insight System Administrator or database administrator can use this procedure to enable the NG-bridge data updates to establish the automatic download and processing of the digest-match data used by Code Insight.

To re-enable internal NG-bridge data update facility, do the following:

In the PAS_GLOBAL_PROPERTIES table in the Code Insight database, change the enable.ngbridge property to true.

Disabling the NG-Data Bridge Updates

This procedure disables the internal NG-bridge data update facility. Disablement might be necessary to control the cadence at which digest match data is updated in Code insight or to accommodate changes in your site’s scan requirements (for example, exact-file matching is no longer used during scans).

info

If you intend to manually download the NG-bridge data updates, do not disable the internal NG-bridge data update facility. You will still need to have this facility enabled to process the manually downloaded data file for digest-match data.

To disable internal NG-bridge data update facility, do the following:

In the PAS_GLOBAL_PROPERTIES table in the Code Insight database, change the enable.ngbridge property to false.
