BigFix Iventory: detect Inventory changes

Usage and Config BFI
1

Hi everyone,

I was wondering if BigFix Inventory is able to detect attribute changes (Hardware/Software) and save them.
Let’s suppose that John Doe has changed his RAM capacity from 8Go to 16Go; Is there any option to display the changed value or alert the administrator in any way ?

I dont there is out of the box solution for that, but you could pull data from API and do some comparison on the side with some script.

I agree, it would be very nice to have some out of box functionality that would alert on changed software or hardware metrics. Currently we export reports each month to an archived location and we compare the new month against the previous.

I suggest to open RFE for such feature. I can advocate it to development once you open such request.
