The question states “You discover that a group of client computers fails to report software inventory data”. As per the above definition, dataldr.log is used for the processing of MIF files and Hardware Inventory.
It should be B, Since it ” states The client computers report hardware inventory data” and “Configuration Manager can deploy Applications to the group of client computers.”.
It happens in my real production enviroments sometimes the inventory data size is exceed the limits or corrupted, so the inventory data is collected but can not be proceeded, you can read dataldr.log to troubleshoot.
Which I did solved our problem in production env.
Actually ABD all apply.
Oh no, Indica is right,B should not be used here.
