Client Management Suite

Open SMP Console - > Settings -> All Settings -> Discovery and Inventory -> Inventory Solution -> Manage Custom Data Classes -> New data class -> Office 365 Update Channels 

Create a Custom Data Class 

Add a Attribute with the following Parameters:
Name: O365_Update_Channel
Data type: String 
Maximum size: 100 
Key: No 

Create a new Task 

Open SMP Console - > Manage -> Jobs and Tasks -> right click and select New -> Task -> Run Script

Create a "New Schedule" to run the Task on all Clients Computers!

Check if the Data exists on a Client Computer

In this example it is the: O365 Semi-Annual Channel 

Here is a list of Office 365 Update Channels 

Create Filters for the different Channels 

Open SMP Console - > Manage ->Filters -> create a new Folder or use an existing on -> right click -> New -> Filter -> Name the new Filter for example: Clients with O365 – Semi-Annual Channel (Targeted) ->switch Filter Definition to Query Mode: Raw SQL 

-> under Parameterized Query paste the following SQL Query:  
select vc.[guid] from Inv_Office_365_Update_Channels ic  
join vComputer vc on vc.[guid] = ic._ResourceGuid  
where ic.[O365_Update_Channel] = 'http://officecdn.microsoft.com/pr/b8f9b850-328d-4355-9145-c59439a0c4cf' 

Repeat the steps to create a Filter for all Channels 

• Semi-Annual Channel (Targeted) (already created) 
• Monthly Channel 
• Monthly Channel (Targeted) 
• Semi-Annual Channel 

Monthly Channel 

select vc.[guid] from Inv_Office_365_Update_Channels ic  
join vComputer vc on vc.[guid] = ic._ResourceGuid  
where ic.[O365_Update_Channel] = 'http://officecdn.microsoft.com/pr/492350f6-3a01-4f97-b9c0-c7c6ddf67d60' 

Monthly Channel (Targeted) 

select vc.[guid] from Inv_Office_365_Update_Channels ic  
join vComputer vc on vc.[guid] = ic._ResourceGuid  
where ic.[O365_Update_Channel] = 'http://officecdn.microsoft.com/pr/64256afe-f5d9-4f86-8936-8840a6a4f5be' 

Semi-Annual Channel 

select vc.[guid] from Inv_Office_365_Update_Channels ic  
join vComputer vc on vc.[guid] = ic._ResourceGuid  
where ic.[O365_Update_Channel] = 'http://officecdn.microsoft.com/pr/7ffbc6bf-bc32-4f92-8982-f9dd17fd3114' 

Filters can also be used to change the Channel later if nessessary! 

Create a Report for O365 Update Channels 

Open SMP Console - >All Reports ->create a new Folder or use an existing one -> right click and select -> New ->Report-> SQL Report -> give the Report a name for example O365 Update Channel Version -> under Parameterized Query paste the following SQL Query 

select vc.name, vc.[ip address], vc.[os name], ic.[O365_Update_Channel],
case
when ic.[O365_Update_Channel] = 'http://officecdn.microsoft.com/pr/492350f6-3a01-4f97-b9c0-c7c6ddf67d60' then 'O365 Monthly Channel' 
when ic.[O365_Update_Channel] = 'http://officecdn.microsoft.com/pr/64256afe-f5d9-4f86-8936-8840a6a4f5be' then 'O365 Monthly Channel (Targeted)' 
when ic.[O365_Update_Channel] = 'http://officecdn.microsoft.com/pr/7ffbc6bf-bc32-4f92-8982-f9dd17fd3114' then 'O365 Semi-Annual Channel' 
when ic.[O365_Update_Channel] = 'http://officecdn.microsoft.com/pr/b8f9b850-328d-4355-9145-c59439a0c4cf' then 'O365 Semi-Annual Channel (Targeted)' 
else 'no Channel found' 
End as 'O365 Channel' 
from Inv_Office_365_Update_Channels ic  
join vComputer vc on vc.[guid] = ic._ResourceGuid
