SMS_G_System

SMS_G_System is an abstract base class that represents the contents, composition, and state of individual SMS client systems. Through the use of associated attribute classes, this may include software and data files, hardware information, and configuration settings. SMS_G_System is derived from SMS_Group. It has no properties of its own.

Note SMS gives the administrator direct control over the items to be included in a hardware or software inventory. You can switch various types of inventory items on or off by editing the SMS_def.mof file. The switchable items are described in Appendix C, “Hardware Inventory Classes.” The process of altering the SMS_def.mof file and collecting inventory is described in Chapter 10, “Customizing Hardware Inventory.”
