CA DSM Agent + Basic Inventory plugin 14.5

CA DSM Agent + Basic Inventory plugin, developed by CA, Inc., is a lightweight endpoint component that collects essential hardware and software details from desktops, laptops, and servers. Designed to work as part of CA’s desktop and server management ecosystem, it provides accurate, up-to-date inventory data to your central management server for asset tracking, license oversight, and reporting.

By automating baseline and periodic inventory scans, the agent helps IT teams maintain visibility across their environment with minimal impact on end-user performance. Collected data supports audits, compliance initiatives, and informed decision-making for lifecycle management and procurement.

Key capabilities include:

• Comprehensive asset inventory: CPU, memory, storage, BIOS, serial numbers, OS version and patch level, installed applications, services, and network configuration.
• Scheduled and event-driven scans with delta updates to reduce network and processing overhead.
• Secure, authenticated communication with the management infrastructure.
• Centralized reporting and export to support asset management and compliance workflows.
• Silent deployment and policy-driven operation for streamlined administration.
• Broad endpoint coverage across common enterprise operating systems (availability may vary by version).

This solution gives organizations a reliable foundation for accurate IT asset visibility, enabling better control, planning, and compliance across the endpoint landscape.
