SMS SOFTWARE INVENTORY PROCESSOR Errors

[Bunny007 0]

I have been getting lot of sms software inventory processor errors. I turned off the Software Inventory from client settings but that hasn't fixed the issue, I still keep getting these error messages.

BADSINV folder is getting filled up with huge number of files, the size of the folder has reached 25 GB now.

Error message is:

Software Inventory Processor failed to process software inventory file "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Configuration Manager\inboxes\auth\sinv.box\abc.SID," and has moved it to "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Configuration Manager\inboxes\sinv.box\BADSinv\xyz.SID."

Is there any solution for this? It was all working fine and just started happening few weeks ago. I can see on what date we started getting these errors, I didn't make any changes on that day. There is other SCCM Admin but he's not sure what might have lead to this as he's been making lot changes.

Also, how do I clear the BADSINV folder?

Thanks,

Bunny

What is unclear with the error messages? You have exceed the size limit and computer doesn't existing within the db. On top of that It is NOT recommend to enable SW inv. there are just far too many problems and it is NOT reliable. https://www.enhansoft.com/sccm-software-inventory/
