76.1 Viewing the Servers Deployed for Inventory

Using ConsoleOne®, you can view the Inventory servers and databases that you configured for collecting inventory.

To get a complete Inventory tree view:

  1. Log into all the Novell eDirectory™ trees that contain Inventory servers present in your inventory tree.

  2. In ConsoleOne, select a container, click the View menu, then click Complete Tree View.

    All the Inventory servers within the container are displayed in the Complete Tree View.

To view a complete tree view if your inventory deployment involves roll-up of information between Inventory servers that are situated on different Novell eDirectory trees:

  1. In ConsoleOne, select NDS Tree.

  2. Click View, then click Complete Tree View.

  3. Select the eDirectory trees or containers within the tree that contains the Inventory servers.

  4. Click OK.

To view all Inventory server from the selected Inventory server to the highest-level server:

  1. In ConsoleOne, right-click the Inventory Service object (Inventory Service_server_name), click View, then click Up Tree View or double-click the Inventory Service object.

If your inventory deployment consists of a single eDirectory tree, an Up Tree View displays all the Inventory servers from the selected Inventory server up to the highest level (Root Server).

If your inventory deployment involves roll-up of inventory information across Inventory servers located on different eDirectory trees, the Up Tree View displays all the Inventory servers from the selected Inventory server up to the highest level server to which you have logged in.

NOTE:You cannot collapse the inventory tree using the shortcut keys.
