Comprehensive IT-related asset inventory, including identifying all WinXP systems. And now includes printers.

Research groups

Note

Ensure we identify any instruments which have Windows-based operating systems embedded in the instrument equipment itself. These will thus not look like computers, per se, so a separate spreadsheet will be a good way to record them.

 Examples:

  • Apparently the Dichtel group has 2 instruments which have WinXP embedded. Are they off network? (In general, it's OK for them to be networked to a dedicated computer, so they may have a (private) IP address).
  • In other groups, there may even be WinNT embedded!

Mostly just for ChemIT staff

Helpful Tips & Notes

  • Printing full records is easier for correction
    • When printing, omit records for 248 Baker & possibly personal machines
  • Bring the label maker to label machines
  • Pay attention to multiple MAC addresses - virtual ones are not important
  • IP addresses are not crucial unless they begin with something other than
    • 128.253
    • 10.253
    • 132.236
    • 10.236
    • 192.168 (some - check w/ Roger or Michael for group router range. Systems not on group router need to be recorded)

Inventorying Macs (Mostly a reminder for Jeannie - because I am somewhat unfamiliar with Macs):

  • (1) IP Address & (2) MAC (media access control, or network card) Address
    • System Preferences -> Network -> Advanced -> Hardware
    • Check MAC addresses for other networks (if there are any)
  • Computer Name
    • System Preferences -> Sharing
  • Serial Number & OS Version
    • About this Mac -> Double click "Version" text

Oliver has talked to Tito and Kenney. Provided Kenney CU AD list of systems.
Alex did a walkabout with Kenney. Updated list with what was and was not found. Kenney is working on figuring out where the rest (a significant amount) is. All updates are being done on a Google Doc. Upgrades will begin as soon as Kenney gets back to us.

And other faculty we should connect with, but not with a group (don't thus have an IT Rep):

Burlitch, Fay, Ganem, Lee, McLafferty, McMurry, Meinwald, Sogah, Usher, Widom, Wilcox, Zax

Most have just their own computer (or two), unless otherwise indicated.
