Collection Modules

Asset management provides various collection modules that you can configure to collect specific or additional inventory information. Use the Inventory Detection Modules folder to customize the hardware inventory modules and the Inventory Template Modules folder to create or modify the user-defined template modules.

Note: The asset management agent starts the scan at the scheduled time and collects the information with Local System Account (Windows) or root (Linux/UNIX). When a user logs on, the agent starts collecting the user-related data such as network connections and user template inventory.
