Viewing Hardware Inventory History

To view an SMS client's hardware inventory history with Resource Explorer, navigate to a collection containing the client. In the details pane, right-click the client whose information you want to view, point to All Tasks, and then click Start Resource Explorer. A new window for Resource Explorer opens and displays information about the selected client. The hardware inventory data is under the Hardware History node. Nodes for each date and time that inventory was run are under nodes for the inventory classes that are configured to keep historical data. The most recent data is under the Current node.

Data that has not changed does not have a node under Hardware History, because there is no history to display.
