Note
If you are working on a software IPM Edition then only Network Conversations and Isilon Conversations* can be viewed in Inventory. To view other conversation types (FC, NFS, SMB, iSCSI) the IPM hardware probes must be installed.
*Requires the Isilon integration to be installed and configured. See the Isilon Integration User Guide for a list of Isilon entities.
