Want to know which computers aren't communicating back to Notification Server? Better yet, want them to change to a different status (Like Missing) so you can create reports and track down these machines? Well, here you go.

This is a CMDB rule that will look for any machines whose client config request interval date is older than 21 days. It will then change their status to Missing.

This is useful for machines who have been shut off for a while but not put back into stock or for machines that may have their Altiris Agent disabled or broken.

To install, you must have Connector Solution installed, then import the xml into the "CMDB Rules" folder under Configuration->Solution Settings->Connectors->CMDB Rules. You can edit the the SQL if you want to shorten or lengthen the time of the config request interval.

Enjoy!

Helpful Tip

This is very useful tips, because if in case some computers having damaged Agent, some kind of crash in the Altiris Components, it needs to be repaired to get the solution working in full. We can use this with the minimized duration to get wired always.

Thanks,
Sundaram
