We recently shut down all of our servers for a scheduled power outage in our building. When reviewing the LastBooupTime0 column, I see servers that definitely went down and came back up. The generated list of computers in this query is over 25% of our inventory, and I didn't see many scan errors, so not sure why there are so many. Here's the query I'm using (borrowed from another thread). Thanks. Select V_R_System.Name0, v_GS_OPERATING_SYSTEM.LastBootUpTime0 From V_R_System Inner Join v_GS_OPERATING_SYSTEM On v_GS_OPERATING_SYSTEM.ResourceId = V_R_System.ResourceId Where v_GS_OPERATING_SYSTEM.LastBootUpTime0 <= (GetDate() - 30) order by name0Dan

I’m not sure what you are looking for but.. It will be as valid as: · How often you do hardware inventory · How healthy your clients are http://www.enhansoft.com/

I didn't realize this field was related to hardware inventory, but makes sense now that you mention it. The hardware agent only runs every 7 days, which explains a lot of those entries. Thanks. DanDan

Recommendation: set Hardware Inventory to daily. Hinv is very lightweight. daily hinv is supportable in every environment I've ever heard of.Standardize. Simplify. Automate.

I was wondering how big a hit this was, so thanks for the info, I'll give it a try.Dan
