3.1.5 Collecting information from hosts

You can collect host information about specified hosts. Execute this processing immediately after you have registered a host or when information about a host or the installed software has been updated for a reason such as the following:

The OS has been replaced

The IP address has changed

Software has been replaced

Software was installed or uninstalled

Software was upgraded

Once you collect host information, the profile lists are cleared. When the Display/Edit Profiles window is opened after host information has been collected, the most recent profile lists are collected.

To collect host information from the IM Configuration Management database:

In the IM Configuration Management window, click the Host List or IM Configuration tab.
The Host List page or the IM Configuration page is displayed.

From the tree area, choose a host.
If the chosen host has lower hosts, you can also select hosts from the Lower Host Information list that is displayed by clicking the Lower Host Information button. In this case, you can select multiple hosts at the same time.

Use one of the following methods to collect host information:

From the menu bar, choose Operation, then Collect Host Information.

From the pop-up menu that is displayed by right-clicking, choose Collect Host Information.

When a confirmation message asking whether you wish to collect information about the selected host or hosts is displayed, choose Yes. Information about the selected host or hosts is collected. In the case of multiple hosts, you can check the execution results in the Execution Results window.

You can use the Host List page to check a host's status after host information has been collected. If collection of a host's information has failed, the host icon is displayed in gray in the tree area on the Host List page. To display the detailed information, click the Basic Information button in the node information display area on the Host List page.
