  • 1.  Activity Center: New Computers Saved Searches Filter

    I don't know if I'm the only one experiencing this or not, but I'm curious if there is a fix out there for it without modifying the xml directly and reimporting it back in.  My new computers default container shows all my systems and the date is defaulted to April 5, 2010.  The documentation I found on this stated that this particular filter was supposed to show what was new within the last 5 days.  We've been running SMP 7.1 SP 2 since mid December.  Therefore, clearly if everything in our environment is showing up it is not showing just what is in the last 5 days.  My xml doc for this filter shows the following: 

    <value type="DateTime" position="1">2010-04-05T15:45:59</value>

    I would think this particular piece of code for the xml would need to look something like:

    <value type="DateTime" position="1">2012-02-08T15:45:59</value>

    but even then it's going to keep the current date of February 8, 2012 instead of automatically updating.  Any suggestions or fixes for this that I may be unaware of.  I would at least like it to reference the current year if nothing else.  Otherwise I have to either browse through several months or select the current year or manually type the date.  This should be automated somehow to set to the current date and look back over the last 5 days to determine new systems compared to their create date.  Is anyone elses doing this same thing.  I'm not finding much if any documentation related to this and I do not want to create a new saved search because I will still have to manually change the date to keep it current.  I would like the modifications made to the original New Computers filter if possible.

    Thank you,

    Misty

    I was just looking for the same thing. No luck yet. I was going to just export it and edit the XML file if there wasn't a way to change it.
