During a VSEL installation, an update task is created. This update task can be turned off through the VSEL Web-UI. If the Web-UI is not accessible, or is not installed, nailsd.db must be modified to remove the update task using the following steps:
- Open a terminal session locally from the client.
- Type the following command:
/opt/NAI/LinuxShield/libexec/sqlite /var/opt/NAI/LinuxShield/etc/nailsd.db
This loads the database into SQLite so changes can be made to the database file.
- Type the following command to ensure nailsd.db is listed as the loaded database:
.databases
- If nailsd.db is listed, run the following commands to make the output easier to read:
.header on
.mode column
- Type the following command to see what updates are scheduled in the database:
SELECT * FROM schedule;
All scheduled update tasks will be listed.
There should normally be only one update task, but if any new ones have been added they can be removed as well. Make a note of the i_taskId value. This the value used to delete from. Each update task will have a value of 1, increasing by one for each task. The default created i_taskId is 1.
To delete any of the tasks:
- Run the following command:
DELETE FROM schedule WHERE i_taskID=1;
(where 1 can be each taskID you have)
- Press CTRL+D to exit the SQLite section.
NOTE: If at any time the commands do not work, press CTRL+D to escape, and then start the process over.
