You can configure
inventory schedule using the Configuration Wizard or OpenManage Integration
under
.NOTE: To make sure that the OMIVV continues to display updated information,
it is recommended that you schedule a periodic inventory job. The
inventory job consumes minimal resources and will not degrade host
performance.
NOTE: Chassis gets discovered automatically after the inventory for all
hosts is run. If the chassis is added to a chassis profile, then the
chassis inventory automatically runs. In a SSO environment having
multiple vCenters, the chassis inventory runs automatically with every
vCenter when the inventory for any vCenter is run at a scheduled time.
To schedule an inventory job:
In the Configuration Wizard, in the Inventory Schedule window, select Enable Inventory Data Retrieval if it is not enabled.
By default, Enable Inventory Data Retrieval is enabled.Under Inventory Data Retrieval Schedule, do the following:
Select the check box next to each day of the week that you want to run the inventory. By default, all the days are selected.
In the text box, enter the time in HH:MM format.
The time you enter is your local time. Therefore, if you want to run the inventory at the virtual appliance time zone, calculate the time difference between your local and virtual appliance time zone, and then enter the time appropriately.
To apply the changes and continue, click Next to proceed with the warranty schedule settings.
