that's not really the intention of a monitoring engine and the gui 
status/historical layer to be a CMDB as well.
ofc i understand the need for this somehow but the past has proven that 
everyone got it's one CMDB (mostly already existing internals) and then 
fiddles that with notes_url, comments and other config generation.

for large system management, people tend to speak of puppet or chef. but 
my personal experience is relatively none with those.

inventory or configuration management?

check_mk with it's inventory *could* meet the topic requirements, but i 
doubt that this is fully the inventory type you've been describing 
especially for the gui layer.
