<p class="MsoListParagraph">If on a BigFix server there is an active action based on ‘Initiate Software Scan’ fixlet in version 10.0.12.0, the action should be stopped, and a new action should be scheduled based on ‘Initiate Software Scan’ in version 10.0.12.0.2
to synchronize the fixlet output with the analysis. <o:p></o:p></p>
