Scheduling Inventory Jobs [Wizard]
The inventory schedule configuration is similar from the Configuration Wizard or from the Dell Management Center >
Settings option. The only difference is that the wizard provides an option to select if you want to run the inventory
immediately.
NOTE:
To make sure that the OMIVV continues to display updated information, it is recommended that you schedule a
periodic inventory job. The inventory job consumes minimal resources and will not degrade host performance.
To schedule an inventory job:
1. In the Configuration Wizard, in the Inventory Schedule window, do one of the following:
● To run inventory schedules, click On Selected Days.
● To not run inventory schedules, select Do not run inventory on Dell hosts.
2. If you select On Selected Days, then do the following:
a. Select the check box next to each day of the week that you want to run the inventory.
b. In the text box, enter the time in HH:MM format.
The time you enter is your local time. Therefore, if you want to run the inventory at the virtual appliance time zone,
calculate the time difference between your local and virtual appliance time zone, and then enter the time appropriately.
3. To apply the changes and continue, click Save and Continue.
