Description

     This Article describes how to build a query that will return device that have been Updated by Inventory within X. Where X can be specified within hours. In this example I will show examples for the last 24, 12 and 6 hours.

 

GetDate():

The Get-Date cmdlet gets a DateTime object that represents the current date or a date that you specify. It can format the date and time in several Windows and UNIX formats. You can use Get-Date to generate a date or time character string, and then send the string to other cmdlets or programs.

 

Query Builder:

Depending on your use case you can either choose a Greater Than ">" statement to show results within the desired length of time or "<" Less Than"  for results outside of the desired time frame.

 

Build Your Query:

    1. In the Windows console right click on My Queries and click New Query.
    2. In the Machine Components section scroll near the bottom and select the attribute labeled: Last Updated by Inventory Server
    3. In the Relational Operators section select the Greater Than symbol >
    4. In the Display Scanned Values section, we will determine our time range by using the variable GetDate() with a switch that turns the variable a time in the past. For Example GetDate()-1would indicate today's date and time minus one day.

 

    • Last 30 days
                    • GetDate()-30

      • Last 36 Hours
                      • GetDate()-1.5

        • Last 24 hours
                        • GetDate()-1

          • Last 12 hours
                          • GetDate()-0.5

          Note the use of a decimal to depict the time in hours. If GetDate()-1indicates one day or 24 hours then GetDate()-0.5would indicate 12 hours or  GetDate()-1.5 would indicate 36 hours and so on...
