OK, it's not beautiful but I would do the following:
M$ offers a tool named MSINFO32 that returns a lot of information about a
server.
You can gather information from a remote server - provided you have enough
rights on
the remote machine.
I got the following - localized - information from one of our Wintel boxes:
Systeminformationsbericht erstellt am: 06/26/07 11:17:17
Systemname: PC5008
[Systemübersicht]
Element Wert

If this processor information is enough to generate the numbers you need for TSM
licensing then it shouldn't be too hard to create a script that does the
scanning
of your servers.
