I have a virtual machine running GLPI and OCS Server. I've setup GLPI to import from OCS frequently (every hour or so). For the Linux machines, I use puppet to control the OCS agent. For Windows, there's a script that is run on all machines (via Group Policy) to control the OCS agent. We have about 100 machines (mostly Windows) in the inventory. There are a few problems, but overall everything works well. Machines setup by Japanese users tend to have the serial number show up in the wrong character set, which is a bit of a pain. There are a few workstations we have from a smaller manufacturer whose serial number, model, etc. wasn't properly set in the BIOS. For those machines that don't have the serial number set correctly, problems arise differentiating them programatically. Authentication into GLPI and all the user information in GLPI is pulled from an Active Directory. That wasn't the easiest thing to setup, but once it was done correctly, its been good. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
