Do you have SCORCH? From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Augustine, Greg Sent: Wednesday, September 13, 2017 2:20 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [mssms] Automated Software Removal
We are trying to use a process to remove software that is not used in so many days. The current process we have a collection of machines that we consider for removal because we know they have had hardware inventory run in the last 7 days and a history of at least 60 days of HWI. We use this collection to limit the collections for removal. The collections for removal query the following for example chrome.exe SMS_G_System_INSTALLED_EXECUTABLE.ExecutableName SMS_G_System_SoftwareFile.FileName And also queries SMS_G_System_CCM_RECENTLY_USED_APPS.ExplorerFileName SMS_G_System_CCM_RECENTLY_USED_APPS.lastusedtime We seem to have issues of it removing software that was just recently installed and then not used right away since the install date is not always accurate in ARP. How does everyone else handle software removal for unused applications? Greg Augustine Office of Administration Information Technology Services Division - State Data Center (573)-751-4714
