SMS Software Inventory Processor

The following counters pertain to SMS Software Inventory Processor.

SINVs Processed/minute

The number of software inventory records (SINVs) that Software Inventory Processor processed during its most recent minute.

Total Bad SINVs Processed

The total number of ill-formed or otherwise invalid SINVs that Software Inventory Processor processed during its current session.

Total SINVs Enqueued

The number of SINVs waiting in Software Inventory Processor’s input queue (the last time Software Inventory Processor scanned the queue), minus each SINV processed.

There are two types of SINV records: software inventory complete (.sic) files and software inventory delta (.sid) files. When .sic files are enqueued, Software Inventory Processor is not aware of the count of waiting .sid files. Therefore, .sid files are not included in this count.

Because this count is the count at the time the queue was scanned, if many SINV records are being written to the input queue, this count can lag behind the actual number waiting to be processed.

Total SINVs Processed

The total number of SINVs that Software Inventory Processor processed during its current session.
