The information supported by Asset Information Manager Subset is created and updated on the basis of inventory information.
If information is to be collected also from devices on which JP1/Software Distribution Client has not been installed, the available information is limited. For details about the information that can be acquired from a machine on which JP1/Software Distribution is not installed, see 10.9.1(1) Asset information that can be acquired from a machine on which JP1/Software Distribution is not installed and 10.9.2(1) Hardware information that can be acquired from a machine on which JP1/Software Distribution is not installed.
The following table describes the correspondence between the information that is created and updated, and the inventory information that is assigned.
