Basic Inventory
Basic Inventory (Initial, Windows) and (Initial, macOS) are scheduled to run at a client's initial start-up after the agent is installed. The cause of the policy's trigger is the task creation.
The common Basic Inventory is scheduled to run daily at a set time.
For Windows systems the policies instruct the agent on the client system to report the following WMI classes to the server:
- Win32_ComputerSystem,
- Win32_ComputerSystemProduct
- Win32_OperatingSystem WMI
