A Domain Inventory is an XML document, persisted in the Guardian Workspace, that describes the products in your domain. The Domain Inventory editor in the Document Pane allows you to interact with the Domain Inventory to better understand how BEA Guardian evaluates your domain.

A Domain Inventory is created when you activate a domain and a new one is created each time you evaluate a domain. You can also create a new Domain Inventory with the Inventory Wizard. The Inventory History folder in the Domain Explorer contains all the Domain Inventories for a domain.
You can open a Domain Inventory editor in any of the following ways:
Activate a domain, or inventory a domain. Then click the OK button in the Progress View.

General Information - the domain name and date and time the Domain Inventory was created.
Servers - the number of servers in the domain, the number of servers active at the time of the inventory, a list of the servers, and information about each server. Please note that if a server is down at the time of an evaluation, it could mask some signatures from being detected.
When you click on a server in the list, the following server information is displayed. Information on the first server in the list is displayed by default:
Server Details - the server's name and WebLogic version, whether the server is the Administration Server or not, and whether the server is in production mode or not.

Operating System Details - the operating system name, version, and processor architecture.
JDBC - the number of JDBC connection pools, a list of the JDBC connection pools, and details about each JDBC connection pool.
When you click on a JDBC connection pool in the list, the following JDBC connection pool details are displayed. JDBC connection pool details on the first JDBC connection pool in the list are displayed by default:
the JDBC connection pool name
the JDBC data source name
the database product name and version
the JDBC driver name and version
Source - provides the actual XML source for the Domain Inventory. It can be copied to your paste buffer or printed with the context menu. You can access the context menu by right-clicking inside the Domain Inventory.

When the Outline View is open and the Domain Inventory editor is active, you can use the Outline View to control what the Domain Inventory editor displays. Clicking the Overview, Source, and Report nodes in the Outline View brings the corresponding tab of the Domain Inventory editor to the forefront. Expanding the Outline View's Source node allows you to select specific XML tag names, causing the Domain Inventory editor to jump to those tags and hightlight them.
