A virtual machine is considered for Azure SQL compliance only when the SqlAHBEnable attribute value is true and the SqlServerLicenseType attribute value is either Enterprise or Standard.

SKUs 

Stock keeping units are created based on the imported data and relations to the corresponding computers are set.

Matching keys: SPSAssetClassBase.ManufacturerName AND SPSStockKeepingUnitClassBase.Model. If no match is found, a new stock keeping unit is created.

Additional values set for virtual machines by the data provider

  • Organizational unit is set on creation according to the value set in the configuration.
  • Management type is set to "Azure Inventory" on creation.
  • Asset status is set according to the configuration on creation or if machine is no longer imported.
  • Relation to domain is saved as GUID in the database, but a domain name is used as source data. The workflow matches it to existing domains by using  SPSComputerClassAD.Domain.DomainName OR SPSComputerClassAD.Domain.NT4Name. If no match is found, a new domain is created.
