[Q&A] different Inventory Frequency for a few clients

Yes, I read it

Describe your problem

Is there a way to change the inventory frequency of the GLPI agent for a few clients different from the server value of 24 h? I know, that I can use scheduled tasks running inventory and injectory, but it would be easier to use the agent.

Hi @AndiMb

this is a global value set on server-side.

The only way I can this of (skipping the scheduled tasks solution you still aware of) is to use a glpi-agent proxy to collect inventory and send it server with a scheduled task.

As explained in proxy-server-plugin documentation, you can set a specific prolog frequency in the case the proxy is not directly configured to submit inventories to GLPI (local storing case). But you'll still have to run a schedule task to inject collected inventories into glpi. Also this means you'll have another server url, even if finally you're using only one glpi server.
