Overview

This article contains the attribute mapping for the Windows Inventory Data Provider. It lists all attributes of the Computer configuration item that are imported or updated by the inventory.

Matching

  • The Windows inventory can be run only for existing computers of Matrix42 Enterprise Service Management. It does not import any computers in the system.
  • Computers to be scanned must be explicitly added on the Included Computers page of an active Data Provider configuration.
  • The Windows Inventory Data Provider creates fingerprints and installations for inventoried applications.

Stock keeping units can be created during the data import. They are matched by the ManufacturerName and Model attributes. If no match is found, a new record will be created. The Configuration Item and Type fields are filled in if the corresponding source information is available.
