OCS Inventory NG Integration

OCS Inventory NG  is an open-source inventory management system. An integration with OCS Inventory NG allows ]po[ to import inventory information as configuration items, allowing helpdesk and other support groups to associate tickets and other information with physical devices, software etc.

Details

The interface code is included in the intranet-confdb package in the folder "ocs_inventory". Core of the integration is the "ocs2pg.perl" PERL script that converts a OCS MySQL database dump into a format suitable for importing into the ]po[ PostgreSQL database.

A number of GUI portlets associated with configuration items will show the OCS Inventory NG information for each configuration item.

The data from OCS inventory are NOT referenced by any other ]po[ object (and should not in the future). This way it is possible to delete the OCS data completely or even to delete the tables.

Status and Download

The interface code is included in the intranet-confdb package which is part of the ]po[ standard distribution, so that you do not have to download any additional sofware.

The OCS Inventory NG integration link is working stable at one ]project-open[ customer at the moment. However, manual configuration is required to install the integration link so please contact us for support unless you have an experienced system administrator in your team.
