How the Software Catalog is used with the Organization component

How the Software Catalog is used with the Organization component

Each appliance has a single Software Catalog. If the Organization component is enabled on your appliance, all organizations use the same Software Catalog that is installed on the appliance. In addition, Locally Cataloged applications are available to all organizations.

Uncataloged applications, and settings such as metering and license configuration, however, are organization-specific. For example, if you enable metering for an application in one organization, it is enabled only for that organization. You enable metering and other settings separately for each organization.

Similarly, Discovered applications are also organization-specific. Applications are marked as Discovered only if they are found in the inventory of the organization.

How Software Catalog information is localized

How Software Catalog information is localized

The application categories in the Software Catalog are localized to match the appliance locale setting. However, application names, such as Microsoft Excel, are not localized.

How you can help improve the Software Catalog

How you can help improve the Software Catalog

The Software Catalog is continually updated as new information or new applications become available and as cataloging requests are received. You can help improve the catalog by sharing your appliance inventory information with Quest KACE and the ITNinja community.

The Quest KACE catalog team uses this information to identify new applications and standardize application names and versions. See Configure data sharing preferences.

Differences between the Software page and the Software Catalog page

Differences between the Software page and the Software Catalog page

Both the Software page and the Software Catalog page use the application information reported by managed devices. However, the two pages represent separate inventory systems, and the way you perform software management tasks differs for each system.

For more information about managing information on the Software page, see Managing applications on the Software page. The following table compares the Software page and the Software Catalog page:

Task

Software page

Software Catalog page

Inventory collection process

Uses the classic inventory collection process available in version 5.4 of the appliance. Managed devices that are running Agent version 5.4 and lower report inventory only to the Software page; they do not report inventory to the Software Catalog page.

Managed devices that are running Agent version 5.5 and higher report inventory to both the Software page and the Software Catalog page.

Uses an inventory collection process introduced in version 5.5 of the appliance. This process gathers information about every executable installed on managed devices.

Managed devices must be running Agent version 5.5 or higher to report inventory to the Software Catalog page.

Viewing software inventory information

The Software page displays information about all of the applications found on managed devices or added to appliance inventory manually or through WSAPI.

Software inventory information is presented on the Software Catalog page as:

•
Discovered: Applications installed on managed devices that match application information in the Software Catalog.
•
Not Discovered: Applications in the Software Catalog that are not installed on managed devices.
•
Uncataloged: Applications that are installed on managed devices but that are not in the Software Catalog.

Inventory information added to the appliance manually or through WSAPI is not available under the Software Catalog page.

Metering applications
