Step 1- Preparing for Inventorying Unconnected Devices
Before you can collect data from devices never connected to your organization's network, you must prepare a USB key, via which the data collection is executed and which will transport the data to any other device of the network. For this, you need a USB key on which the tool provided by BMC Client Management - Inventory is installed. You can find it in the downloaded installation archive in the form of a .zip
file under the directory tools/UnconnectedDevices
.
- Go to directory
tools/UnconnectedDevices
of the downloaded installation archive. - You will find one
.zip
file per operating system, that is, one for Mac OS, and one each for 32 and 64 bit Windows and 32 and 64-bit Linux. Select the zip file matching the operating system of the unconnected device. - Copy the file to the USB key and extract it in its directory.
- You can put more than one version of the tool on your key, because you can collect the data of more than one unconnected device on a key. The number is only limited by the size of the key.
