Will provide Windows client support for the new Process datatype, which contains information about cpu usage, memory usage, I/O and process elapsed time - for selected processes. This patch requires Patch481 to be installed on the server. You must specify which processes to account for, since this functionality is rather costly in terms of system resources. To specify processes, edit the appusage_process_rules_rel.conf file on the server, which is then distributed to the clients. Also, this patch introduces selective module logging. You need to install patch #493 on the server, to enable this option. To specify modules, edit the appusage_modpoller_rel.conf file on the server, which is then distributed to the clients. Windows Application Usage (AppUsage) would log a value of 1 in the 'count' measurement field for each record, and multiple records could be logged for the same application (if it ran for long enough). This could result in a 'count' of more than 1 when records for the same application were added on the server. After this patch, subsequent redcords will be logged with a 'count' of zero. This will make the sum total 1 on the server when multiple records for a single application are added. (But a side effect is that some records may show a 'count' of zero, when not added. Records with zero count must be interpreted as 'count' = 1, but they started prior to the report period.

Upgrade to patch 1056, with corrected data type (Process accounting) details.
AppUsage has been partly rewritten to better conform to Microsoft standards (which is important with respect to accuracy and for running on 64 bit). Also, this patch introduces selective module logging. You need to install patch #493 on the server, to enable this option. To specify modules, edit the appusage_modpoller_rel.conf file on the server, which is then distributed to the clients.

Unpack the zip file anywhere on the machine to patch. Run the InstallPatch.exe application. Once the patch has been installed, you may delete the unpacked patch directory. NOTE: The patch will reset debug level for AppUsage to 0. NOTE: The patch must be installed by a user with administrator rights.
