The inventory collection function of Systemwalker Desktop Patrol contains the inventory collection plan of the PC where the CT is installed and the methods of automatically and manually sending inventory information to the upstream server.
The procedure for manually sending inventory information from CT to the upstream server is as follows:
Choose Start > All Programs > Systemwalker Desktop Patrol CT > Inventory Collection, or Apps > Systemwalker Desktop Patrol CT > Inventory Collection.
The CT sends inventory information to the upstream server.
Verify that the information is sent based on the value of Inventory collection status on the Status tab page on the Environment Setup page. For details about the Status tab on the Environment Setup page, refer to "2.6 Verifying the Operation Status".
Note
If the name of the upstream server for receiving the collected inventory information is incorrect, collecting Inventory information will fail.
To verify that the CS or DS server name for receiving the collected inventory information is correct, choose Start > All Programs > Systemwalker Desktop Patrol CT > Environment Setup, or Apps > Systemwalker Desktop Patrol CT > Environment Setup, and view the information in Connection Server on the Server Switch tab page.
Point
The method of manually sending inventory information is recommended in the following scenarios:
The CT user is modified, or the PC management information is modified.
The current asset information needs to be affirmed based on inventory check.
