All the interfaces deleted when importing data generated with --no-category=network

[st3rk]

Hello,

I'm trying to use fusioninventory-agent to automatically fulfill some information in GLPI.

Everything works fine, but not the networking part. We already have an up to date inventory. We've created manually the interfaces and linked it to the network equipment they're connected to.

I'd like to keep this information, so I'm using fusioninventory-agent with the parameter --no-category=network. I checked the XML file, there isn't any network information. However, the fusioninventory plugin deletes all the preexisting interfaces.

Steps to reproduce:

• create manually an interface on a computer in GLPI
• on the same computer, run fusioninventory-agent with the parameter --no-category=network
• notice the deletion of the interface created step 1 in GLPI

Alternative:

• run fusioninventory-agent on a computer, without the parameter --no-category=network
• check on GLPI the new network interfaces created
• on the same computer, run fusioninventory-agent with the parameter --no-category=network
• notice the deletion of the interfaces

It seems to be the only part were the fusioninventory plugin acts that way.

Seems not normal, interfaces created manually must not be deleted

Do you think it's a bug? Can we help by providing any additional information?
