SYMPTOMS
The Last Software Scan date for a Windows NT client computer in Personal Computer Properties of Systems Management Server is not current or consistent with the Software Inventory Frequency set for the site. The Last Hardware Scan date is current.



CAUSE
If you do not have any Software Packages configured for Inventory, the Inventory Agent for Windows NT (INVWIN32.EXE) does not perform a Software Scan. This behavior does not occur with the Inventory Agent for MS-DOS clients (INVDOS.EXE).



RESOLUTION
To work around this problem, force the Inventory Agent for Windows NT (INVWIN32.EXE) to scan for software. To do this, configure at least one package for Software Inventory.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Systems Management Server version 1.1. The problem has been fixed in Systems Management Server version 1.2
