I’ve been asked a lot of questions about the various ways of using queries and there are almost no limits to what you can do with a query and of course, you can then go on and use these queries for creating collections or just to supply you with the information you require.
I have created some very basic queries so far on previous posts that are available below:
Last logged on user query – All Systems
Find system by last logged on user – Using a Username prompt
Another variation on these basic queries that I’ve been asked to provide is to prompt for a computer name (in this query I’ll be using the NetBIOS name) which can be entered to provide the last logged on user and other information for that machine.
The query to do this is below:
select distinct SMS_R_System.LastLogonUserName,
SMS_R_System.Name,
SMS_R_System.SMSAssignedSites,
SMS_R_System.Client,
SMS_R_System.IPAddresses,
SMS_R_System.IPSubnets,
SMS_R_System.MACAddresses,
SMS_R_System.OperatingSystemNameandVersion,
SMS_R_System.ResourceDomainORWorkgroup,
SMS_R_System.LastLogonUserDomain,
SMS_R_System.AgentName,
SMS_R_System.AgentSite,
SMS_R_System.AgentTime,
SMS_R_System.SNMPCommunityName,
SMS_R_System.SystemRoles,
SMS_R_System.SMSUniqueIdentifier,
SMS_R_System.ResourceId,
SMS_R_System.ResourceNames,
SMS_R_System.ResourceType,
SMS_R_System.NetbiosName
from
SMS_R_System
where
SMS_R_System.NetbiosName = ##PRM:SMS_R_System.NetbiosName##
Again, there is a lot of junk information that will be provided but I have put that in so that you have a choice on the information you want. If there is anything in there you do not want, just remove it from the query.
