Full OS Version with Patch level report

[Greg Thomas]

I've been tasked to find the full OS build version in our environment by our security team. I can get to the Build number but can't find the patch level, like 17763.1935, I can't find the 1935 part.


Any assistance would be appreciated.

Hi GregST!

You can use this example sql query how to get full OS build number and how to decode this value (Note that this can be done starting from 8.6 RU1 release where you should have SMP 8.6 RU1 and SMA 8.6 RU1 on client computer which sent own basic inventory)

Here is a mention about this in 8.6 RU1:

https://techdocs.broadcom.com/us/en/symantec-security-software/endpoint-security-and-management/it-management-suite/ITMS/Release-Notes/IT-Management-Suite-86-RU1-Release-Notes/Whats-New-in-This-Release-ITMS-86-RU1.html

Full operating system version and full operating system build number of the clients.

The AeX AC Identificationpage in Resource Manager now shows full operating system version and full operating system build number. You can also add this data to your customized reports.

This works. Thank you

If your environment isn't yet 8.6 RU1 version, then you could try to use a custom inventory.

Here is created example to get "Update Build Revision" number from managed Windows client computers using custom inventory data class, powershell task and custom report to see "Update Build Revision" number from custom inventoried windows computers.

Client task gets UBR (Update Build Revision) value from Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\

Download attached .xml files and then import them one by one

1. Import "Win Update Build Revision.xml" custom data class

2. Import "Update Build Revision_ number only from custom inventoried Windows computers.xml" custom report

3. Import "Get _Update Build Revision_ from Windows computers for custom data class _Inv_Win_Update_Build_Revision_.xml" custom task

Schedule imported custom task for windows clients, after this check custom imported report in step #2 above

Thanks,
IP.

Hello Igor,

We still must use his recommendation, or do the last ITMS versions offer this result without using a custom class?

Kind regards,

Hi Jose Roberto,

It depends on the ITMS Version:

Take a look at this KB: https://knowledge.broadcom.com/external/article?articleNumber=231798

Hello Jose Roberto!

1. If ITMS version is 8.6 RU1 or higher, then this information will be available in AeX AC Identification data class.
2. Johannes Bedrech already provided answer for this question, if your environment is ITMS 8.6 RU1 or higher version.

Best regards,

[Jose Roberto]

Yep!

Less one custom data class :)

Kind regards

Hi GregST,

Here is another example very similar to Igor´s custom inventory...
