The Workstation Scan log reports the status of the latest scan done at the inventoried workstations associated with the selected Container. For example, you view the Workstation Scan log to determine whether the latest scans were successful for the inventoried workstations or whether the Storer has stored the inventoried workstation .str files in the database. The inventory components (Scanner and Storer) write the scan information in the Status log.
You can also choose whether to display error, warning, and informational status messages of the inventoried workstations.
The following table lists the details of the log:
You can export the file as a .csv or tab-delimited file.
If the scan is disabled in the Inventory policy, the Scanner does not log any status messages in the Status Report log.
To view the Workstation Scan log window:
In ConsoleOne, click the container, click Tools, click ZENworks Inventory, then click Workstation Scan Log.
Click the message severity type, then click OK.
To export the Workstation scan log to files, click Export.
Choose the file type, then specify the filename.
Click OK.
When the Scanner creates a .str file of an inventoried workstation and the Selector processes this file, the inventory components also log the status of the scanning in the Workstation Status log. It is possible that at the same time, the Storer is processing the .str files of another inventoried workstation. Meanwhile, the Scanner continues scanning and updates the Workstation Status log for the next scan.
