You can select the items that are to be acquired as device change logs according to management purposes.

Device change logs are acquired when inventory information is registered into the Asset Information Manager Subset database.

You can change the items to be acquired as device change logs from the Acquire Device Update Record Items window, which is displayed by clicking the Acquire Device Update Record Items job menu. The following figure shows the Acquire Device Update Record Items window.

Figure 10-84 Acquire Device Update Record Items window

This window lists the items that can be acquired as device change logs. If user-specific hardware information is used to manage the device information, you can also acquire a change log for the user-specific information. You can view the change log acquired based on the settings specified here using the Device Change Log job menu under Device Management and the Update Records page in the Device Details dialog box.

To acquire information about an item as device change log, select its Acquire check box and then click the Update button.

To remove an item from the device change log, clear its Acquire check box and then click the Update button.

Note

• In the Customize Managed Items job menu, if you hide the items that can be acquired as device change logs, the device change log is not acquired. They will no longer be displayed in this window.
• If the device change log is to be acquired for the item Network information.IP address or Network information.MAC address, a large amount of information about devices used in DHCP operation may be acquired.
• If the device change log is to be acquired for the item Network information.IP address or Network information.MAC address, the device change log for IP and MAC addresses is acquired using the MAC address as the key value. Therefore, if you set to not acquire the MAC address in the device change log, the device change log may be acquired even when there is no change to the IP address.
