Non Resident Inventory

The Non Resident Inventory (NRI) solution provides a simple way to inventory a Windows, Linux, or UNIX computer without having to deploy the CA IT Client Manager agent (DSM agent) to it.

The NRI solution is based on existing CA ITCM inventory components, and it provides the same robust discovery capability that the installed agent-based discovery does, but works on computer systems without any CA software installed prior to or after the inventory scan has been performed.

Three different levels of discovery capabilities are provided, with each level accessible through the installed NRI web-site that you should visit in order to inventory your systems. The NRI agent can, however, also be executed through login scripts.

The NRI solution is customizable and offers you the capability of creating your own levels or packages to suit your needs.
