Linux domain source

[Smitty986]

Hi,

Quick question - on my Wintel devices .ndi file I can see (in WMI evidence) I can see the Domain ID

Is there a corresponding field in the Linux .ndi file?

Thanks

The installed agent on Unix-like operating systems does not report a domain in inventory by default.

The domain that the agent reports against is configured in the ComputerDomain agent preference. See the following page as a starting point for information about this preference, including how it can be configured at the time the agent is installed: https://docs.flexera.com/fnms/EN/GatherFNInv/index.html#SysRef/FlexNetInventoryAgent/topics/PMD-Domain.html

Also see the following thread for some discussion and exploration around the subtleties of domain details on Unix-like operating systems: https://community.flexera.com/t5/FlexNet-Manager-Forum/Domain-name-in-Inventory/m-p/218880/highlight/true#M13868

Related to this thread, check out the following page which provides some more detail around the FlexNet inventory agent gathering domain information on Unix-like operating systems: Known Issue: Computer domain is blank by default and does not reflect output from hostname/domainname commands in inventory & usage data returned by installed agent on Unix-like operating systems (IOJ-1832862)
