Exporting the single device inventory
You can export inventory data of only one device at a time to only the MS-Excel format.

A Donut chart indicates the device status in the working pane. See Donut chart. A table lists the properties of devices selected. See
Device list.
2. In the devices list, select the check box corresponding to the device, and then click Export Inventory.
3. In the Save As dialog box, save to a known location.
NOTE: When exported to MS-Excel format, some of the data displayed on the GUI is not enumerated with a
descriptive string.
Devices list
The list of devices displays the device properties such as IP address and Service Tag.
NOTE: By default, the Devices list displays all the devices considered while forming the Donut chart. To view a list of
devices that belong to a specific health status, click the corresponding color band in the Donut chart, or click the health
status symbol. Devices that belong only to the selected category are listed.
• Health indicates the working state of the device. The health statuses—OK, critical, and warning—are identified by respective color
symbols. See Device health statuses.
• Power State indicates if the device is turned on or off.
• Connection state indicates whether or not the device is connected to OpenManage Enterprise–Tech Release.
• TYPE indicates the type of device—Server, Chassis, Dell Storage, and Networking switch.
• IP address indicates the IP address of the iDRAC installed on the device.
• Managed State column indicates whether or not the device is onboarded. See Onboarding devices.
To filter data in the table, click Advanced Filters or the Filter symbol. To export data to HTML, CSV, or PDF file format, click the Export
symbol in the upper-right corner.
NOTE:
In the Devices list, click the device name or IP address to view device configuration data, and then edit. See
Viewing and configuring devices.
NOTE: The working pane displays the Donut chart of the selected device group. By using the Donut chart, you can view
the list of devices that belongs to other health statuses in that group. To view devices of other health status, click the
corresponding color band on the Donut chart. The data in the table changes. For more information about using the
Donut chart, see Donut chart.
