Report of System Images deployed to machines
Hello,
I saw that you can see when and what image was deployed to the computer at "C:\ProgramData\Quest\KACE\k2000_deployment_info.conf"
I was hoping that there was a report we could run that pulls up this information sorted by deployment_name. It would be awesome to see what labs need to be redone with what images without having to manually check each one. I tried creating a report with the wizard, but could not find that field.
Am i missing it or is this something that has to be done in SQL?
Thank you,
Rex H.

I want to know what the current image applied so if I had a bug in a particular image I can track it.
Quest places a file on the imaged machine to give you a reference about the current image.
k2000_deployment_info.conf
I also wanted some other info so I add a reg entry to my images when I sysprep. This entry comes into the SMA as a software item. So you can track the history thru the SMA of images by changes in that software item.
I run this file when I sysprep:
Dism /Online /Export-DefaultAppAssociations:c:\temp\AppAssoc.xml
start /wait notepad.exe C:\Windows\w2d\tmccimageversion.reg
start /wait regedit /s C:\Windows\w2d\tmccimageversion.reg
cd\windows\system32\sysprep
sysprep /generalize /oobe /shutdown /unattend:c:\windows\system32\sysprep\adminw10x64.xml
This is the tmccimageversion.reg file contents
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\TMCC IMAGE INFO]
"Comments"="Source 1809LTSCx64"
"Contact"="SMal"
"DisplayVersion"="W10LTSC 062019"
"HelpTelephone"="57800"
"Publisher"="WIM ad062019"
"DisplayName"="TMCC Admin Image"
Then on the SMA you create CIR to read quest info.
for the reg file I use it shows like this

-
then use the report writer to create reports and use the filter rules to tune - SMal.tmcc 5 years ago
-
the names of the tmcc file has changed some over the years the files are the month day year coded so I have been doing this since 2012
This has been a major saving of complaints. the student workers go image and I then check the software items for this years images, I can tell immediately when they put the wrong image in a room - SMal.tmcc 5 years ago
