Unable to do remoteinventory

vogll · 2022-10-13 10:32:36

Hi,
I just register remote system to inventory, but I can't do the remote inventory from the agent.

root@Glpi:/# glpi-remote list
index deviceid url target Next run date
1 pve-2022-10-13-08-55-16 ssh://root:****@192.168.12.5 server0 on next agent run

It seems to be disabled on the server side. I investigated the documentation with no success. Here is part of the agent log

Oct 13 10:21:20 Glpi glpi-agent[46707]: Remote inventory task execution disabled: no remote to inventory

Hi vogell,

it is disabled on server-side as this is not actually directly supported by glpi. So don't take care of the related messages, the agent will simply run the remoteinventory if it decides it's time to.

When running on the commandline, you still can force the inventory to start with the "--force" option.

Here as you have the message "Remote inventory task execution disabled: no remote to inventory", this just means something is not right in the relationship between your "remotes" and your "targets". I see you have a "local0" target and a "server0" one. Maybe you have mixed up something.
Anyway are you running the remote inventory manually or expect the service does it at expiration ?

Thank you for the explanation. I changed target to the local0 and inventory file had been created.
Then I ran glpi-injection from command line.
I understand that there is no way to manage remote inventory from the WWW interface of the Glpi server.

There will be an interface in GLPI in the future. But this is not scheduled for now.
There will be also an interface with GLPI Agent, via the ToolBox plugin, probably for next month. There's actually a prototype in nightly build but it just mimics glpi-remote command. I'll try to enhanced it for glpi-agent v1.5 release next month.
