ID for tracking 481981

Workaround 1: Upgrade the SFS plugin systems to 7.4.0. The issue is resolved once the plugin system is upgraded to 7.4.0. 

Workaround 2: Add the following defaults line in the policy server sudoers file so that all the joined plugin agents will pick up the change.

Defaults  rlimit_fsize = 1073741824

Example steps:

/opt/quest/sbin/pmpolicy checkout -d /tmp
** Validate options [ OK ]
** Checkout to /tmp/policy_sudo

** Create directory [ OK ]
** Check out working copy [ OK ]
** Checked out revision:8
** Copy files [ OK ]
** Perform syntax check [ OK ]

Then edit the file using 'vi' or whichever editor you use:

vi /tmp/policy_sudo/sudoers

And add the line:

Defaults  rlimit_fsize = 1073741824

Then commit the policy.

# /opt/quest/sbin/pmpolicy commit -d /tmp
** Validate options [ OK ]
** Commit copy in directory:/tmp/policy_sudo

** Check directory [ OK ]
** Perform syntax check [ OK ]
** Verify files to commit [ OK ]

Within 30 mins the plugin systems should have the new revision with the fix.

Fix: This will be fixed in a future version of SFS. Product Defect ID 481981
