Title: HW/SW Inventory: Do not save inventory tree if Checkmk service calculates
status data inventory
Component: HW/SW Inventory
Level: 1
Class: Bug fix
Version: 1.7.0i1
The {{Checkmk HW/SW Inventory}} service builds up the inventory tree and if
{{Do status data inventory}} is configured in the ruleset {{Do hardware/software
inventory}}
the {{Checkmk}} service builds up the status data tree. Latter one also saved
the inventory tree as the {{Checkmk HW/SW Inventory}} service does. This may
result in flapping inventory history entries.
Now the inventory tree is only saved by the {{Checkmk HW/SW Inventory}}
service and the status data tree is only saved by the {{Checkmk}} service if
{{Do status data inventory}} is configured.
Both the commandline {{cmk -vii HOST}} and the {{Checkmk HW/SW Inventory}}
service also run inventory hooks.
