or automatically collected by HP SIM during identification, contract and warranty data will
not be collected.
• Monthly contract and warranty collection This task collects contract and warranty data every
month. If the required system properties are not entered for a system or automatically collected
by HP SIM during identification, contract and warranty data will not be collected.
If you want to run the Contract and Warranty Collection task immediately for an updated system,
select Options→Contract and Warranty Data Collection. Collecting Contract and Warranty
information is limited to once a day.
IMPORTANT: Running the contract and warranty collection task more than once a month is not
recommended or needed since the data does not often change.
