I'm having a problem with manually added (non-Altiris managed) computer resources. I'm manually adding them to Resources\Configuration Items\Asset Types\IT\Computer. When I open the resource from this location, nothing but the computer name displays. No system number, Serial, Manufacturer, etc. However, this was manually entered about a week ago. It's almost like it was overwritten. Almost.
However, if I go to the Incidents tab, click assets from the left pane, then find asset, two appear. One is blank, and the other has the Serial number & asset number, etc. However the status is marked as Inactive. But when I run the report that shows all inactive computers, this is shown as active.
I checked the properties of the resource and it shows a creation date of 2:12am. modified by my service account. This tells me something ran and overwrote what was manually entered. I can't find anything that is set to do this. Can someone point me in the right direction? The Audit log shows a new action and then a modify actaion at 2:12am the same day and that's it. The data for this was enetered a couple weeks prior to this.
All I need is this. Items can be manually added as a resource that dont have the Altiris agent on it. If/when the altiris agent is installed on it, it merges and updates the information, leaving the existing inforation such as PO, cost, etc. in tact. This used to work, but something has gone bad.
Any thoughts, suggestions, or a point in the right direction?
