The fastest new release ever! Shortly after releasing 4.1 I got an email from a user with some good improvements. Thus, we have OCS Mac agent for OCS Inventory, version 4.2. This release adds the following features:
- The script can now take an input file manually. Normally the agent uses System Profiler to generate an XML file with system info. Sometimes, however, a mac will refuse to generate the file or it will be corrupt. If that’s the case you can manually generate it from the command line and feed it the file with the -i switch.
- No more PEAR dependencies! The script still uses PEAR libraries, but they are all included in the script. This solves the problem where some machines (for no apparent reason) came without PEAR installed.
