In an attempt to output more useful data to our management teams, I would like to create a new computer property that will show a count of relevant fixlets/tasks [components] from a specific baseline. I am still learning my way around relevance. Anyone know of how to do this?
I am assuming this is possible, as you can select a computer, open the Baseline Component Applicability Tab and select the baseline to show the applicable component count.
This should be possible with Session Relevance. (Console, WebReports, etc…)
I don’t think this would be possible with a (client) computer property.
Do you just need to run a report? Does it just need to be for a single computer for a specific baseline? Multiple computers for a single baseline? Multiple computers for multiple baselines?
Yes we just want to show this information in reports. Multiple computers against multiple baselines.
We have a number of baselines that contain a whole bunch of different fixlets from a number of external sites. For example:
Baseline 1 would have a number of MS Patches in it, which we want to find out how many of those MS Patches a single endpoint or a whole computer group of endpoints, requires.
Baseline 2 would have a number of software packages in it, again we would like to know a count of how many of those software packages a single endpoint is missing or the compliance of a computer group against that baseline; Computer Group1 has 40 endpoints, with 20 of them NOT compliant with Baseline 2 and 30 of them not compliant with baseline 1.
expanding on that, I am sure we can dig deeper and find out information like things like; 20 endpoints in computer group 1 are missing 4 fixlets from baseline 1…
You have to use the “session relevance” as advised by Jgstew. The following example will return the list of computer and fixlets relevant for a specific baseline named “Custom Baseline”:
(( name of it) of elements of applicable computer set of it as string, names of it as string) of components of component groups of bes fixlets whose ( baseline flag of it = true and name of it = “Custom Baseline”)
