Client Management Suite

I have exe file to deploy to all the workstaton, but I need to setup the detection rule for this

if machine already install then it will said "detected", I found the key in the registry key like

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\{7C0242A3-8B66-35D1-9FE0-13B426ACB609}

MsiExec.exe /X{7C0242A3-8B66-35D1-9FE0-13B426ACB609}

 

how can put this info in the software delivery?

 

Thanks

You can open your .exe file in SMP Console and create own new "Detection Rule" - "Registry Key Exists" from "Rules" tab:

Then you will add this .exe file in Managed Delivery policy -> choose your new "Detection Rule" for this package and enable "Perform software compliance check using:"

 

Thanks,

Hi,

You may add this key as detection rule in the software release which you should use in the Managed Delivery Policy to deliver and install on client. Detection ruler will works only with Managed Delivery Policy.

For more details you may read Software Management best practices 

How to create Inventory Rulealso  have been described in Software Component management best practices.

In this particular case it looks like your .exe is a wrapper for a Windows Installer (.msi) package. So you could follow Igor's instructions but select "MSI Product Code" and put in 7C0242A3-8B66-35D1-9FE0-13B426ACB609. When you create a Software Resource by Importing a Windows installer (.msi) package it will create this Detection Rule for you.

so you already have the .exe you need to deploy in Altiris setup to roll out?

then edit the software package... on Rules Tab...

I have one setup... I also use 2 as 32bit and 64bit

it also goes deeper to verify if a certain version is installed...
