You can run reports to gather Remote Management information from the Inventory database.
The Remote Management information is taken from the Inventory database you configure.
You can print or export the report as desired. Remember that any reports you generate are empty if you have not configured ZENworks 7 Desktop Management to start populating the Inventory database with the data you want.
This section covers the following sections:
Before running the inventory reports you must perform the following tasks:
Configure the Inventory database. For more information, see Section 77.1.1, Configuring the Inventory Database.
The Remote Management reports always use the Inventory database you configured as the data source for your reports unless you change it later as described in Section 77.1.1, Configuring the Inventory Database.
Before running the inventory reports you must make sure that the appropriate ODBC client for Sybase, Oracle, or MS SQL is installed on the machine running ConsoleOne. The ODBC driver is automatically configured on the machine when you invoke the Inventory report. For more information on how to configure the ODBC client, see Installing the ODBC Drivers
