My company uses Altiris Console 6.5 to scan our computer inventory. We have upwards of around 2,000 computers and most of them scan fine. However there are a couple that dont scan correctly. 7 of the computers come back with the following when searching serial number.
Serial Number System Manufacturerer Computer Model Name Source of Serial Number
Not Found Data Not Accessible Data Not Accessible Not Found
In addition to those seven there is 3 that have the following error.
Serial Number
GENERIC HP FAILURE
I am trying to find out why they are not scanning correctly. They are all HP computers but most of our computers in our building are HP and they scan fine. Also about 1/2 of the ones that dont work are laptops and others are desktop. And again we have lots of other Laptops and Desktops that scan fine.
I was wondering if there was maybe a patch that we need, or if there is something we need to do different on these specific computers to get them to scan correctly.
