Hi All,
I am looking a custom report that can show total computer affected by may patches.
Example,
Patch May 001 having total 60 computer affected
Patch May 002 having total 80 Computer affected
But total affected PC is not 60+80 and is actually 83 affected only.
Are the patches deployed through a baseline?
Either fixlet or baseline, both also can.
It should be relatively straightforward to get all computers affected by a baseline.
It would be much more complicated to get the list of computers affected by various fixlets without knowing which fixlets should be checked for computers that were affected by them. The only way I could think to do this would be to define some criteria, like all fixlets in a particular site that are new within the past 30 days, then check those fixlets for affected computers.
This would need to be done using Session Relevance, and should be possible.
May i know how to get the list of computer affected by baseline in IEM?
This is how you get all baseline actions:
names of top level bes actions whose(baseline flag of source fixlet of it)

This is what you are looking for: (though not put together the way you want)
(name of computer of it, status of it, retry count of it) of results of top level bes actions whose(baseline flag of source fixlet of it AND name of it contains "May" AND name of it contains "Patch")The result how action result and it look great.
