Hi. I’m trying to apply a filter to a delta report, but it seems to time out or otherwise fail.
Situation: There are two reports from one scan task that I want to compare and then only show results that are new in the last report or that occurred in the first report, but don’t appear in the last report anymore (marked with [+] and [-] in the result list).
The delta report is shown, but when I try to apply the filter “delta_states=ng first=1 rows=100 sort=name apply_overrides=1”, there’s no visible effect on the results list - number of results stays the same, there’s no blinking logo that indicates any activity. I can see one CPU core go to 100% with postgres, run at max load for some time and then return to a normal state, but the results display doesn’t change, which seems to point to some kind of timeout maybe?
The filter I try to apply also is not displayed as the “Applied filter” at the end of the results list on each page, this simply continues to show the default filter string. It also makes no difference if I enter the filter manually or as a stored filter.
There’s no entry in any of the log files in /var/log/gvmd/ during any of this.
Am I misunderstanding how this is supposed to work? If this is really some kind of timeout, is there a way to increase it?
Thanks,
Marc
Bonus question: If I configure a filter with filter expression delta_states=ng first=1 rows=300 sort=name
and apply that to the result set of a delta report, entries with [=]
and [~]
are still shown, while the status line displays (Applied filter: apply_overrides=0 min_qod=70 delta_states=ng first=1 rows=300 sort=name)
. Why is the delta_states=ng
not used?
