InventoryType

FlexNet Manager Suite 2021 R1 (On-Premises)

Command line | Registry

InventoryType identifies the inventory type, either machine-based or user-based.

Note: User-based inventory collection is deprecated, and included only for backward compatibility. Specifically, no policy is generated in FlexNet Manager Suite for user-based inventory collection, so that the ndtrack component does not normally generate any user-based inventory. Furthermore, there is no guarantee of future operation of user-based inventory, and the recommendation is to convert any legacy systems to use machine-based inventory.
