Question: How to analyse software inventory

Dear all,

because we have compatibility issues with a specific type of software or the software from a specific vendor, I want to create a dynamic group containing all systems with that software (name of product) or all systems that contains any software from a specific vendor. I later want to apply special settings to that group.

I tried to deal with “value “CompanyName” of version block 1 of regapp”, but I was not able to finalize that, because of multiple results for the “regapps” object.

I am looking for somethink like

exists (CompanyName = “xyz”) of regapps

  • and -

exists (Productname = “xyz”) of regapps

which can be used to create a retrieved property with and/or create/control a dynamic group.

Thanks for help,

Rolf.

Rolf,

Something like this?

exists regapp whose ((exists value “CompanyName” whose (it = “Microsoft Corporation”) of it AND exists value “ProductName” whose (it = “Microsoft Windows Media Player”) of it) of version block 1 of it)

Hi Jesse,

great :slight_smile:

I really have problems with this “whose” clause every time I try to create a relevance on my own, but at the time of reading one everything seems to be very clear …

Cheers,

Rolf.
