The {{Checkmk HW/SW Inventory}} service builds up the inventory tree and if {{Do status data inventory}} is configured in the ruleset {{Do hardware/software inventory}} the {{Checkmk}} service builds up the status data tree. Latter one also saved the inventory tree as the {{Checkmk HW/SW Inventory}} service does. This may result in flapping inventory history entries.
Now the inventory tree is only saved by the {{Checkmk HW/SW Inventory}} service and the status data tree is only saved by the {{Checkmk}} service if {{Do status data inventory}} is configured.
Both the commandline {{cmk -vii HOST}} and the {{Checkmk HW/SW Inventory}} service also run inventory hooks.
