Events Inventory Reports

Events reports list any changes or discrepancies found in an inventory scan as compared with the inventory data stored in the database.

Table 25 describes the type of inventory events that occur when JUNOScope scans device inventory.

Table 25: Events Types

Event

Description

CREATE

Initial discovery of an inventory item.

ADD

Inventory item added to a device although it was previously associated with the same or a different device (applicable to hardware inventory items only).

DELETE

Inventory item removed from a device.

UPDATE

Change in an inventory item attribute.

UNKNOWN

Unable to store inventory item in the database due to a missing serial number, licensed feature name, or software package name.

Note: Physical Interface Cards (PICs) and Flexible PIC Concentrators (FPCs) are tracked during an inventory scan by their containing chassis and slot position within the chassis. Therefore, if you move a PIC from FPC 0 to FPC 1 within the same chassis or to a different chassis, a DELETE event is generated with the old location and an ADD event is generated with the new location.

Table 26 describes the type of JUNOScope inventory event reports that are available. To view inventory reports, see Viewing a Report.
