Dell EMC OpenManage Enterprise Version 3.3.1 User's Guide

Managing device inventory

NOTE: To perform any tasks on OpenManage Enterprise, you must have necessary user privileges. See Role-based OpenManage Enterprise user privileges.

By clicking OpenManage Enterprise > Monitor > Inventory, you can generate a device inventory report to better manage your data center, reduce maintenance, maintain minimum stock, and reduce operational costs. By using the Inventory Schedules feature in OpenManage Enterprise, you can schedule jobs to run at predefined time, and then generate reports. You can schedule inventory jobs on the 12th generation and later PowerEdge servers, networking devices, PowerEdge chassis, EqualLogic arrays, Compellent Arrays, and PowerVault devices.

NOTE: On the Discovery and Inventory Schedules pages, the status of a scheduled job is identified by Queued in the STATUS column. However, the same status is indicated as Scheduled on the Jobs page.

To preview a job information, click the row corresponding to the job. The right pane displays the job data and the target groups associated with the inventory task. To view information about the job, click View Details. The Job Details page displays more information. See View an individual job information.
