Description

As we got new informations from inventories in 2.5 we don't need to add some informations anymore.

we should remove the promises adding virtual machines informations

Depending on the version used for inventory, we should not add cpu informations anymore.
we may check the fusion inventory version used before computing those informations
( using fusioninventory-agent --version returns the version used to make inventories)

The inventory parser is already capable treating case where the informations is provided but useless,
but it will less things to process for the agent

Above which version exactly should we not include CPU information?

virtual machines could be removed (due to the use of option --scan-homedirs in fusion)

for cpu informations we should match if version on fusion inventory used is >= 2.2.1.
If not then run cpu informations

#10

Updated by Vincent MEMBRÉ over 11 years ago

Target version changed from 2.4.0~beta3 to 2.4.0~beta4

Using old promises is not a problem as inventory endpoint will handle the case where useless content has been added, so it's not blocking for 2.4.0 beta3 but i think we have to handle it before release of 2.4.0 (need to check fusion inventory version before execution promises / remove useless promises)

then we can change it to beta4
