Running into a strange feed sync issue.
So with everything running I execute the nvt sync command.
su -c “greenbone-nvt-sync” gvm
Which runs, no errors, but when looking in GSA I only have 188 NVT’s which are mostly of severity log.
Looking at the plugins directory there appear to be a complete list.
Did you run it interactively ? What is the output ? IDS/IPS/Firewalls did interrupts sometimes a Sync due to some false interpretation of some Signatures some NVTs might match.
