Hello,
Today I've faced a problem when I tried to setup rules and automatic
links between computers in OCS & GLPI.
1 - Computers that are in stock are manually encoded and stored in a
specific entity. When the computers is delivered by the supplier, we
have no idea where it's going to be dispatched.
2 - The computer is the put in service and the OCS Inventory or
FusionInventory agent is installed and send his inventory in the OCS Server.
3 - The GLPI synchronization process detects a new computer in OCS : it
goes through the rules engine and a target entity is assigned. Then GLPI
try to find a computer with, in my case, the same serial number. Of
course it won't find anything, and will create a new computer => so we
get doubles into GLPI :(
My idea will be to extend the link process and be able to specific in
the OCSNG Mode configuration an entity in which GLPI will try,
alternatively, to look for the computer :
1 - GLPI synchronization process detects a new computer : it goes
through the rules engine and a target entity is assigned
2 - GLPI try to find a computer with the same serial number
3 - not computer found : run the same search but on the alternate entity
configured in OCSNG mode
4 - computer found in this entity : transfer the GLPI computer first in
the target entity and the link the 2 computers
What do you think about it ?
We may try to make it more configurable, to handle shared stocks for a
set of entities (for a shared stock for a group of entities).
Walid
