I was going through the Scanned Item Intervals to adjust timings, and I ran across WMI entries that have been depricated/obsolete since Server 2003. It might be nice to have some kind of popup information or color indicator that these are depricated/obsolete.
Specifically: Win32_DisplayConfiguration, Win32_DisplayControllerConfiguration
An additional item for the wishlist (that I last saw on these forums in 2009!) is the ability to ADD a Custom WMI scan.
Scanning hardware driver versions through WMI is a simple process, and it would be nice to know which machines need a driver update due to a security issue.
The WMI scan I'm using currently is done through powershell to a text file export, but I'd like to be able to use the reporting in LanSweeper to organize the data.
GWMI Win32_PnPSignedDriver | select Friendlyname,devicename,driverversion
Based on unfiltered reports from 40+ machines, the only data required from the Win32_PnPSignedDriver are the following:
ClassGuid
CompatID
DeviceID
DeviceName
DriverDate
DriverName
DriverProviderName
DriverVersion
FriendlyName
HardWareID
InfName
IsSigned
Manufacturer
PDO
Signer
Any other data is either duplicated on every device, or is empty.
