Performing an Inventory Scan

To perform an inventory scan, follow these steps:

1. In the JUNOScope main window, click Inventory Management > Scan. The Scan—Select Device and Time dialog box appears.
2. Select the devices you want scanned. Select either the Group (default) or Selected Devices option button.
3. Click the down arrow to select the group or device(s) that you want scanned. You can select multiple groups or devices by Shift or Control-clicking each device name that you want.

   Note: The Inventory Management System scans the inventory on both the TX Matrix platform and attached T640 routing nodes. The TX Matrix routing platform consists of the TX Matrix platform (also known as the switch-card chassis [SCC]) and the attached T640 routing nodes (also known as line-card chassis [LCC]).

4. Select when you want the inventory scan to occur:
   • Now—(Default) Performs an inventory scan immediately after you confirm it.
   • Save Operations as text box—Lets you save the inventory scan operation with a unique name so that you can combine it with other operations to run on devices.
   • Selected Schedule—Click an option button to schedule when you want inventory scanning to occur.
5. In the Comment text box, type an optional descriptive comment about the inventory scan that you want to perform.
6. Click Next. The Scan—Confirm Selections dialog box appears.
7. Click Finish to confirm the scan inventory operation. If you selected Now in Step item, inventory scanning occurs immediately and the Scan—Wait for Operation to Complete message appears.

   If you selected a predefined schedule, inventory scanning occurs when that schedule is specified to run.

   When the scan inventory operation is complete, the Scan—View Operation Status dialog box appears displaying the status of the operation.
