SUMMARY
If an inventory package is created and a directory path is defined with the
file, the file will never be located and/or collected from the client.
MORE INFORMATION
To create an inventory package:
- Open the Packages window and choose "New."
- From the Package Properties window, choose "Inventory." This presents
the Setup Package For Inventory window.
- Check the Inventory This Package box and choose "Add AND..." to
present the File Properties window.
- Define the file name of the file you want to inventory on the client.
For example, Autoexec.bat.)
- Check "Collect This File" if you want SMS to retrieve a copy of the file
to the server.
- Click "OK" until you return to the Packages window.
NOTE: There is no job required to distribute inventory packages to clients;
this is done automatically.
In step 4, if a directory path is included with the file name (for example,
"C:\Autoexec.bat"), the file would not be found or collected by the SMS
Client when inventory was collected.
