Each status message has a type with a unique set of properties. Currently only the Software Distribution messages, SoftwareDistributionPackageEvent and SMS_SofwareDistribution_Event are fully documented.

You use ISmsMessaging::Post Method to pass the message to the software inventory manager endpoint, StatusReceiver. You set the target endpoint with ISmsMessage::SetTargetEndpoint Method.

The software inventory report header is passed in the Post.pRequest parameter.

The following security flags can be applied to the message:

Security Mode	Required	Optional
Mixed	MPAPI_SECURITY_FLAG_MIXED_MODE	None.
Native	MPAPI_SECURITY_FLAG_NATIVE_MODE MPAPI_SECURITY_FLAG_SIGN_MESSAGE	MPAPI_SECURITY_FLAG_ENABLE_CRL_CHECKING

Use ISmsMessage4::SetSecurityFlags Methodto set the security flags for the message.
