FusionInventory Agent has given way to GLPI Agent as the official inventory solution. If you're still using FusionInventory, it's time to migrate.

Why migrate

• FusionInventory is not compatible with GLPI 11
• GLPI Agent is officially maintained by Teclib
• Native integration without the need for a plugin
• Better performance and compatibility with recent hardware

Migration plan

1. Preparation

• Inventory all equipment with FusionInventory active
• Document the server URL and tags used
• Download the GLPI Agent version corresponding to your OS

2. Batch deployment (Windows)

Use GPO or PowerShell script to uninstall FusionInventory and install GLPI Agent:

# Uninstall FusionInventory
msiexec /x {PRODUCT-CODE} /qn

# Install GLPI Agent
msiexec /i glpi-agent-1.x-x64.msi /qn SERVER=https://glpi.suaempresa.com

3. Batch deployment (Linux)

# Remove FusionInventory
apt remove fusioninventory-agent -y

# Install GLPI Agent
curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/glpi-project/glpi-agent/main/tools/linux-installer.sh | bash -s -- --server https://glpi.suaempresa.com

4. Verification

After deployment, check under Administration > Inventory > Agents that the new agents are reporting.

Troubleshooting

• Duplicate asset: configure linking rules by serial number under Administration > Rules
• Agent not connecting: verify that the FusionInventory plugin in GLPI has been deactivated (it conflicts with native inventory)
