Info

The validation of 'git.exe' and 'p4.exe' is no longer mandatory in CxSAST when defining the 'Path to GIT client executable' and the 'Path to Perforce command-line client executable' parameters.

  • Path to P4 command line client executable - Set the Perforce client executable path (e.g. C:\Program Files\Perforce\p4.exe)

    Info

    If you haven't already done so, download the P4 command line executable (HELIX P4: COMMAND-LINE) from: https://www.perforce.com/downloads/helix, run the .exe file making sure the installed files are placed into a directory that CxSAST can access (i.e. C:\Program Files\Perforce)". Use this same directory to fill the Path to P4 command line client executable parameter field.


  • Maximum number of concurrent scans - Set the maximum number of concurrent scans a CxManager can run. This cannot exceed the licensed number of concurrent scans. Reducing the number of concurrent scans below the licensed amount can help to prevent the CxManager out of resources. The default is 2. CxScansManager service must be restarted before any changes to this setting will go into take effect. 
  • Time remaining until task completion (min) - Set the time remaining until task completion (timer)the task is complete.
  • Web Server Address - Set the web server address in order to access links in generated report from outside the organization.
