RayVentory Scan Engine offers a schedule for automation of operations.
The following tasks and operations can be scheduled:
•Remote OS Inventory
•Oracle Inventory
•vSphere / ESX Inventory
•Discovery (with automatic inventory option)
•Inventory Upload
During the setup of RayVentory Scan Engine, the schedular is installed as a service. It executes scheduled tasks in the background even if the RayVentory Scan Engine application is not running.
During the start-up of the RayVentory Scan Engine application, if no running scheduling service is found and if the scheduling service cannot be installed with the permissions of the currently logged in user, a warning is shown in the Notification Center and an instance of the scheduler is run within the RayVentory Scan Engine application itself. This instance of the scheduler will be stopped if the RayVentory Scan Engine application is closed. Therefore, the execution of the schedule will also be stopped when exiting RayVentory Scan Engine.
In the Schedule screen it is possible to create and edit the schedule. The Schedule screen can be opened by clicking on the Schedule tile which is located on the dashboard. The tasks which are listed in the schedule can also be triggered manually.
