Notifiy Admins about unsynct/outdated HW/SW Inventory data on Master Site
In a distributed setup, a lot of inventory data is synchronized in the background between the master site and the remote sites. Occasionally it can happen that this synchronization fails unnoticed.
Often you only notice such errors when you search for certain information and cannot find it because it is missing. Missing Data can also have a negative impact on filters, views and dashboards that use inventory data.
The master should report if the inventory data is no longer available or is out of date. Something like this irritates the users and should not go unnoticed.

Stefan MühlingI haven't found anything in the documentation how this even works.
Master + Remote (with liveproxyd enabled):
Case 1: Some inventories are up-to-date at master (1 hour old)
Case 2: Some inventories are outdated at master (sometimes for years)
Case 3: Inventory data never arrives at master
Same applies for inventory_archive and the delta trees.
