ldms_client question

Posted by Jack Coates Sep 18, 2008

ldms_client currently stores email information like this:

"Computer"."Email"."PST Files".$name_of_file."File Location" = location

"Computer"."Email"."PST Files".$name_of_file."File Size" = size

"Computer"."Email"."PST Files"."Total File Size" = size.

 

That makes it easy to do a query for "systems where there is lots of PST file space taken up", which would be something like "Computer"."Email"."PST Files"."Total Disk Size" > 1000 MB.

 

It is however impossible to query "a list of all PST files and their sizes and locations."

 

Are there many people who want that sort of a listing? Changing the behavior at this point is likely to break something for existing installs.

This is a centrally managed client inventory extension tool... it gathers a bunch of information that the base LDMS client doesn't. Currently, that means battery, netstat, nic duplex, landesk policy status from the client's perspective, PST file sizes, broker configuration mode, and the domain members of local groups. Here's a screenshot of the administration tool:

 

 

 

 

 

In the future, it will also include a startasuser.exe-powered HKCU key fetcher. I'm also thinking of produkey support and OSX support.
