*Published Sites:*
CIS Checklist for IBM DB2 12.1 on Linux, site version 1
(The site version is provided for air-gap customers.)

*Details:*


●      Total Fixlets in Site: 166

●      This checklist supports multi-instance. It dynamically identifies
all instances and validates compliances.

●      This Checklist supports DB2 12.1 installed in RHEL 7, 8, 9 and
Ubuntu 20, 22, 24.

●      Both analysis and remediation checks are included.

●      The Environment Setup task utilizes atomic result refreshes,
ensuring that existing results remain available until new results are
generated. Results now also include a collection timestamp for better
tracking and auditability.

●      The Applicability Fixlet includes additional validation, ensuring
that the Environment Setup Task log file exists, is not older than 90 days,
and that results of files are present. This ensures Fixlets are reported as
Not Applicable, and that the Measured Value (MV) correctly indicates that
the Environment Setup Task has not been executed.

●      Some of the checks allow you to use the parameterized setting to
enable customization for compliance evaluation. Note that parameterization
requires the creation of a custom site.

*Actions to take:*

●       To subscribe to the above site, you can use the License Overview
Dashboard to enable and gather the site. Note that you must be entitled to
the BigFix Compliance product, and you must be using BigFix version 10 and
