When you run a stand-alone inventory package, you can use command-line
switches to modify default behavior.
See
"Stand-alone inventory package command-line switches"
If you had enabled the verbose logging or if any errors occur when running
stand-alone inventory, you can view the inventory events in a log.
The log is on the local computers and stored at the following locations:
InstallDir\Altiris\Altiris Agent\Logs folder as Agent*.log on managed computers
\Altiris\Altiris Agent\Logs folder as a*.log on unmanaged
%ProgramFiles%
computers.
You may have the package configured to access the Notification Server computer,
but when the package is run, it cannot access the server. If stand-alone inventory
fails to post the NSEs to the specified target (a folder or HTTP or HTTPS location),
it deletes the NSE, NSI, and BAK files from the Inventory\NSI and
Inventory\Outbox folders. The files are deleted so that the next time stand-alone
inventory is run, it will re-create the inventory. The NSI and Out box folders are
removed if they are empty. This procedure is done to make sure stand-alone
inventory reports correct inventory to the Notification Server computer even if
users are running stand-alone inventory packages with the
/SendChangedInventory command-line switch.
Unlike the software inventory on managed computers, the software scan in
stand-alone mode does the following functions:
Also reports inventory of Add/Remove programs
Does not follow the two-pass logic for reporting the file inventory, so basic as
well as detailed file inventory is reported for the files scanned

Running stand-alone inventory packages on target computers
Using one of the inventory methods explained, run the stand-alone inventory
package.
If you used the manual method, you must manually copy the inventory data
files to the Notification Server computer after running the package.
