VM inventory was available only as an on-demand download. It can now be
scheduled weekly or monthly as CSV, emailed or saved on the Pulse
server. Each attempt exports all current VMs in the organization,
including newly discovered VMs, through the existing exporter.
Historical performance-report limits and windows remain separate.
The schedule uses existing delivery configuration checks, persisted
success/failure/uncertain states, bounded retries and deliberate
recovery controls. Pricing, feature gates, retention entitlements and
existing customer grants are unchanged.
Live checks also reproduced two unattended inventory defects: reporting
retained a stopped monitor after configuration reload, and canonical
snapshot reads relied on dashboard reads to publish polled VM inventory.
Reporting now receives reload replacements through an atomic manager
reference. Canonical snapshot reads reuse the existing publication
boundary, including its freshness fast path, provider/mode fences and
nonblocking warm reads.
Validation:
- 105 focused frontend tests; full type check, lint, production build
and bundle budgets.
- Race checks for reporting, inventory, reload, publication and
organization isolation; clean private runtime build.
- Current runtime browser checks on `/settings/support/reporting` and
`/alerts/notifications` at 1440×1000, 820×844 and 390×844, with actual
pixel review. The first inventory read exports 61 normally polled VMs;
real MIME CSV matches the download; a newly discovered 62nd VM enters
the next export.
- Local SMTP acceptance, 451 retry across a real restart, permanent
rejection, uncertain acknowledgement and deliberate recovery; disk
delivery, edit/reload, disable, details and delete.
- Staged status, registry, contract, completion and exact-content
browser guards pass. Regression proof is registered against the specific
runtime paths it covers.
