    Hello All,

    I have been asked to prepare a report that would show all the computers that are Pending Reboot, after Patch Installation. The columns that are required are:

    1. User ID
    2. Computer Name
    3. OS
    4. User Name (Display Name)
    5. Reboot Required (y/n)

    The preconfigured report in Altiris does not provide the additional information that I need, any help / suggestion would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks in advance

     

    Wert.

    Hello Raju123.

    Thanks for your reply and the links, the first link does provide sql query to get the computers requiring reboot but this only does half the job for me is there a way that we can tweak the query to get the additional information such as, User ID, OS, User Name to this query, (I am just a beginer in sql) any suggestions, guidance would be much appreciated. 

     

    set rowcount 0;
    select DISTINCT
     cn.Name as [Computer Name]
    from Inv_AeX_SWD_Execution_Summary ex  
     join ItemReference ir on ex.AdvertisementId = ir.ParentItemGuid
      and ir.Hint = 'swu' 
     join dbo.vSoftwareUpdateInventoryRuleAssociations ira on ir.ChildItemGuid = ira.SWUGuid    
     join dbo.vRM_Computer_Item cn  on ex._ResourceGuid = cn.Guid  
      and cn.OwnerNSGuid = (select tns.Guid from dbo.vThisNS tns)
     inner join vPMCore_ComputersPendingRebootByPackage prp on prp._ResourceGuid = ex._ResourceGuid
       and prp.PackageId = ex.PackageId 
    where ira.SupersededBy is null  
    order by cn.Name 

     

     

    Regards
