SonicWALL Scrutinizer 9.0.1 Release Notes
P/N 232-000861-00 Rev A
Can Scrutinizer run in VMWare?
Yes, but as with any virtualized environment, you may experience sharp declines in performance when your
server's resources are divided between many sessions.
How do I exclude Scrutinizer in Symantec AntiVirus?
1. From within Symantec, expand the "Configure" option from the tree menu and select "File System."
2. Click the "Exclusions" button.
3. Click the "Files/Folders" button.
4. Find the Scrutinizer directory and check the box next to it.
5. Click "OK" to finish.
How do I setup integration between Scrutinizer and WhatsUp Gold?
Visit the WhatsUp Gold Integration page for instructions on setting up WhatsUp Gold v12/v14 and Scrutinizer to
work together.
Why are my IPs not resolving, even though I have configured my DNS properly in Windows?
In certain situations, Scrutinizer may not be able to properly resolve IP addresses. This usually happens when
there are multiple DNS servers with disparate records. To deal with this, Scrutinizer allows you to specify your
DNS servers in a file rather than get the settings from the Windows Registry. The steps are outlined below:
1. Create a file in the \scrutinizer\html directory called dns.conf.
2. Open this file with a text editor like Notepad.
3. Create a list of DNS servers in the file in the format below.
• nameserver 192.168.1.1
• nameserver 166.186.184.2
• nameserver 224.39.1.171
Now that you have created this file, you should now be able to go into the Scrutinizer web interface and do
lookups properly.
I'd like to change the MySQL "scrutinizer" user password from the default to something more secure. Is
there anything else I need to do other than set the password in MySQL?
Update MySQL Root password via CLI using scrut_util.exe located in the [HOMEDIR]\Scrutinizer\bin\
directory. There is a two-step process, resetting the password then updating the plixer.ini file.
Options:
-reset_mysql_password
Changes the MySQL root account password.
-update_plixerini_mysqlroot
Use this command to update the plixer.ini database root user password. Scrutinizer and the database root
password must be in sync.
Usage Example:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Scrutinizer\bin>scrut_util.exe -reset_mysql_password
Changing Password for MySQL Root Password. Press <ENTER> to abort.
Note: On Windows 2008 and Windows 7, you must run this command from the Administrator Dos Prompt
New Password:
Verify Password:
Attempting to login with new password ... PASS!
Password Updated for MySQL Root ... DONE!
