Limitations

Each generated OVAL Definition document can contain only one Definition. And only one DSA can be specified in a single execution of the Generator.

OVAL Interpreter on Debian GNU/Linux

Since ovaldi version 5.4.2 does NOT support "-a" option, all the XML resource files MUST be located in "ovalfiles" directory under the current working directory.

OVAL

OVAL Schema version 5.6
- Several part of the OVAL Schema is NOT implemented or abbreviated.
