Snapshots and R_Inventory view?

[david cheng_2]

Hello. In Insight Manager 7, I pull server data from R_Inventory into a home-grown database/application and it works fine.

I'm looking at the SIM 4.x table structure and I see a SnapshotID column in R_Inventory now. I also see there's a Snapshot feature that seems to store previous config information for a server.

Thus, it seems like there could be multiple rows in R_Inventory for a single server. Does anyone know if this is the case? If so, it's going to cause problems for my application.

thanks
david

As long as you are using 'Single Instance Data' as the setting for Data Collection you should be fine...
