h-inventory is a software tool that offers web-based inventory management for hardware and software of Windows, Linux, and BSD machines. This tool assists users in monitoring and maintaining their IT assets with ease.
The H-inventory project is a software application that was developed to specifically cater to the needs of a training center of network administrators. The main challenge faced by the center is that their stations are redeployed every week and not linked to active directory, which means that they are renamed each week. This makes it difficult to identify machines effectively. To tackle this problem, the software is designed to be based on the concatenation of all the MAC addresses of the machine.
This latest version of the software comes with a host of new features that make it even more effective. These include an inventory quick search that allows for multiple editions of extra fields, cron synchronization, default location, and auto location by script. Statistics can now also be filtered by locations.
The incident management functionality now comes with a quick search option, edition and deletion capabilities, archiving, and multiple incident types and subtypes.
The software has also been equipped with a new monitoring feature that allows for automated monitoring and audit through Cron.
There is a new knowledgebase module added to the application, making it an all-encompassing solution for the training center's requirements.
Deployment of the software is now easier with the interface and database improvements. The new installation method comes with version 0.2 of the client.
Admin maintenance is now a breeze, thanks to the ability to tar XML files to obtain some space. The latest version also comes with a new installer and reviewed interfaces.
In terms of development, the software now comes with full PHP5 object and bug corrections, making it easier to extend the application. Code commenting has also been added, and the software is now Xhtml 1.0 strict compliant. Overall, the H-inventory project is an excellent addition to any network administrator's toolbox.
