  • 1.  Looking for documentation on Inventory for Server solution

    Posted Jan 08, 2014 06:11 AM

    I'm looking for as much detailed documentation as I can get on Inventory for Server solution ........ and specifically for Database (MS SQL, MySQL and Oracle) inventory.

    I already have the Inventory Solution 7.1 User Guide and the Inventory for Server 7.1 Release Notes but these do not go into any level of detail that we would need to grow the use of this product. 

    In summary what I need to know is what level of inventory detail the solution CAN return and what specific credentials I would then need to set up at database level to ensure that this data is returned. 

    Any KB links to custom solutions to complete this requirment would also be much appreciated.

    Thanks all but there's nothing in the DB schema for inventory solution and it's not custom inventory we're looking at in this scenario - it's OOTB Inventory Solution for Server documentation we're looking for.

    I have to agree that although the Inventory Solution UG does mention the Server Inventory product, it unfortunately does not spend any time with it (Previous versions did have their own UG).

    If you go to the "All Settings > Notification Server > Resozrce and Data Class Settings > Data Classes > Inventory > Server" folder, you will be able to select each data class in turn to see what information can be obtained.
