Does Mend Have the Ability to Scan When Offline and then Upload the Scan Results when Online?

It's possible to save the output of the scan into a file instead of sending it directly to Mend by HTTPS. This approach is useful in case there is no connectivity (or limited connectivity) while scanning.

By changing the configuration file to offline mode, any execution of the Unified Agent will store the current configuration and metadata in a JSON txt file named update-request.txt, located in the newly-created 'whitesource' directory. It is located under the current working directory ($pwd or %cd%). This file can later be manually uploaded to Mend from the Admin Console or via the command line.
