Are you running that on servers? Software inventory has a timeout value that 
tends to get exceeded on servers.

Subject: [mssms] file extension not working for software inventory

I have added a *.vmdk to my client settings so that we can find machines that 
have this file.

I have tried it in 2 ways: I put in the actual path the files are supposed to 
be stored in, and I left it as All client hard disk.

I have let the policy run (currently set to 2 days) then went to reports and 
ran computers with a specified file typed in *.vmdk and nothing, then I type in 
*.exe and nothing.
If I run all inventoried files on a specific computers, I see all the .dll and 
.exe's on that computer, but when I do a find for .vmdk it finds nothing.

Am I missing something? I want to make sure that this file gets inventoried as 
I am asked to run reports on who has this on their machine.

Any ideas where I am going wrong?

Thanks,

Kevin Johnston
