Host Inventory Data Grid

The data grid provides all host inventory information collected on the hosts. View this information at the Host Management node (the Host Master Table) or at individual host list nodes. See the Hosts Lists topic for information on host lists.

Host Inventory Data Grid

The icon for each host entry is an indicator of its inventory state:

IconInventory State
Idle inventory state iconIdle
In Queue inventory state iconIn Queue
In Progress inventory state iconIn Progress

The Name, HostStatus, and InventoryState grid columns are fixed by default. If desired, you can move these columns to the scrollable section of the table.

Use the horizontal scrollbar at the bottom to view the host inventory data, which includes:

  • Name – Unique host name

  • HostStatus – Status of the host during the last time it was queried for host inventory collection

  • InventoryState – Last known status of the host inventory query (Idle, In progress, or In queue)

    NOTE: If the Access Analyzer application is stopped during host inventory collection, hosts queued for inventory retain the InventoryState of In queue within the Host Management node data grid, as this is the last known state of inventory. It retains that state until the next host inventory collection is executed against the host.

  • IPAddress – Last known IP Address for the host from host inventory collection
