Step-by-step guide

Strategies can be disabled in the iQSonar Service configuration file

(Default location: C:\Program Files\iQuate\iQSonar ScanEngine 4.0\bin\iQuate.iQSonar.ScanEngine.exe.config)

Add values to the DisabledStrategies XML element. “<ProductAdapterName>:<StrategyName>”. Values are comma separated.


For Example:

To disable to disable the "Oracle Discovery Unix (Folder)" and "Oracle Discovery Unix (Install Logfile)" strategies in the "Oracle Database" product adapter you would use the following:

<add key="DisabledStrategies" value="Oracle Database:Oracle Discovery Unix (Folder),Oracle Database:Oracle Discovery Unix (Install Logfile)" />



Ensure there is only one DisabledStrategies XML element in the config file
