Spec is available in the OBS project: https://build.opensuse.org/package/view_file/home:linuxbuild/hw-probe/hw-probe.spec?expand=1 2) The -get-inventory-id option creates a new inventory id (or 'group') to mark new probes by this id. You've created too many inventory ids per day and received an error when trying to create more. Usually it's enough to have only one inventory id. bf0a7f04b4 is a probe id (10-digit), not the inventory id. Your inventory id is 8557d9ad (8-digit). Just use it to mark all your future probes with the help of -inventory-id option: sudo hw-probe -all -upload -inventory-id G It's enough to mark each unique computer once. The command: hw-probe -inventory-id G does nothing without -all and -upload options. The command: hw-probe -get-inventory-id creates a new group/inventory id (G) each time.
