Running Inventories
The WLSE automatically runs scheduled inventories (see About Scheduled
Inventories, page 6-24), and you can run immediate inventories of all devices or
of selected devices.
When you select Administration > Discover > Inventory, the following options
for running immediate inventories appear:
• Run Inventory Now—Use this option to collect complete inventory data
from selected devices (see Immediate Inventory of Selected Devices,
page 6-25).
• Inventory All Devices—Use this option to collect inventory data from all
devices—see Immediate Inventory of All Devices, page 6-26).
You can view details on the last 15 inventories—See Viewing Inventory and
Discovery Task History, page 6-27.
About Scheduled Inventories
The WLSE runs 3 types of inventories on a regularly scheduled basis:
• Basic inventories that collect all the information required by the WLSE to
populate displays, such as reports, and to place devices in system-defined
groups. This inventory runs hourly by default.
In the inventory history listing, these inventories appear under the name
Inventory.
• Client inventories that only collect information about associations of clients
to access points. This inventory runs every 5 minutes by default.
In the inventory history listing, these inventories appear under the name
ClientInventory.
• Performance inventories that only collect the performance attributes used in
trend reports for access points, bridges, and AAA servers. This inventory runs
every 15 minutes.
In the inventory history listing, these inventories appear under the name
PerformanceInventory.
