Ok, i've upgraded my main GLPI installation to 0.80.X, and so installed FusionInventory 0.80+1.5, and i'm starting to propagate agents, for now on a little subnets.
Still i've found some trouble, expecially on import rules. Probably i'm missing something, or i've not understood how rules work, but seems to me there's no way to prevent the autocreation of monitor, printers and peripherals if they have no serial. After some test with the existing rules, i've added two more rule, as: + Filter inexistent S/N Criteria Assets to import : Serial Number does not exist Yes Actions To be unaware of import Assign Yes + Filter empty S/N Criteria Assets to import : Serial Number exists Yes Assets to import : Serial Number is empty Yes Actions To be unaware of import Assign Yes immediately after the 'computer' rules; anyway monitor, printers and peripherals with empty/nonexistent S/N are imported. Another trouble came from the scarce flexibility of S/N match. OK, S/N match have to be precise, but i think that have to be taken into account the fact that some manufacturers print on S/N lable a code that have some chars more that the effective S/N: eg, samsung print on monitor a S/N that really is part number + s/n, some other add a char at the end. I think that another match have to be added, looking for (exact) substring. Also, is common when you add item to your inventory by hand, to do some mistakes: eg, mix 'O' and '0'. I think that in the next FI version a feature can be added: some sort of ''staging'', eg peripherals (monitor, printers, devices, ...) does not got imported automagically, but can be checked by hand (could be also with some hints, like ''the S/N sounds like of that device'') and then imported.
