Hi, thanks for the hint. We know the tool but the idea was to use one tool for Linux and AIX.
AIX has another great option - PowerSC - which You can use for Reporting and setting baselines. But You still habe to do a lot on the command line. I'm testing this at the moment.
But first of all we have 300 AIX LPAR's and 600 Linux systems - and while the number of AIX images is decreasing, Linux is becoming more and more.
The other thing is that the staff responsible for those AIX and Linux installations was reduced. We are now 5 experienced admins and another one is new and still learning.
And because we also manage the disk subsystems, the SAN infrastructure and the backup infrastructure (Spectrum Protect), we want to keep that as simple as possible.
Another option we evaluate at the moment ist Nessus. Works fine for Vulnerability Management but it seems to has a bug for compliance scans regarding our SSH/sudo configuration.
Thanks

Hi,
Thanks for the information.
I will have a look from time to time on the openscap project site - maybe they will consider a better integration with AIX.
Thank You
Martin

Hi Martin,
We have looked in past for porting openscap on AIX but encountered some Linux specific code in packages.
Hence it is difficult to port this packages.
Right now we do not have plan to pursue it further because of Linux specific requirement from package.

Hi,
could You imagine to provide us with openscap for AIX?
On Linux this tool generates great reports which I need for external crontrollers.
Thanks
