Environment

NetIQ Secure Configuration Manager 5.9

Situation

This hotfix includes a new stored procedure, SPDeleteServerAgentAttribute, that enables you to

remove custom attributes from the properties that define the agents and systems in your asset map. For example, you might have added a property that specifies the department to which a system belongs, and you no longer want to use that property.

Resolution

Download and apply Hotfix 7011293 from www.netiq.com
 
This stored procedure must be executed in a query e.g.: (where xxx is the name of the user defined server or agent attribute to be deleted.)

use VigilEnt
exec spdeleteserveragentattribute 'xxx'

Cause

No process to remove custom added properties existed in SCM.
