Some Hardware inventory values get translated/localized to local language of the workstation

Hi all,
I am doing hardware inventory in SCCM 2012 R2, I have included the OSArchitecture (actually displayed as "OS Architecture") property for the "Operating System" class (the Win32_OperatingSystem WMI class actually). The data gather correctly
- from Windows 6.x+ while there is nothing from Windows XP/2003, which is correct according to documentation of the WMI class. That is OK. So inventory works fine.
My problem is different - for some workstations, the value is localized. Normally, there should be just "64-bit" or "32-bit", but on some of my Czech workstations, the value is "64bitovy" or "32bitovy". This indicates
the WMI values are obtained as localized.
Though, if I try to query WMI on the problematic workstation from PowerShell, the value is in English, so the WMI can produce the English value as well, if necessary.
How can I switch SCCM Hardware Inventory to gather non-localized WMI values from all workstations?
thank you!

hello, yes, the caption is also localized.
it appears like the Display Language of the Operating System account makes the difference. If I install English language pack for OS (not SCCM client) on the client machine and switch the Display Language for the operating system profile, the hardware
inventory changes to display English 64-bit value.
It works exactly the same when querying Win32_OperatingSystem from PowerShell. If the user has his display language set as Czech, powershell returns value of "64bitovy", if the user changes his display language to English, PowerShell displays the value
as "64-bit".
So as the SCCM client runs under System account, it just queries Win32_OperatingSystem and returns what it gets to SCCM server.
One solution would be to change system display langauge to English on all workstations, but this seems like impossible.
Isn't there a method by which I would make all my SCCM clients query in English locale instead?

  • Can we get a output in different languages for the same configuration

    Hi All,
    Can we get a output in different languages for the same configuration done in NACE. or it is language specific.
    They have symbols which have values both in german and english. But when we run the transaction we are getting the output only in german language.We want the out put in english
    language.
    Thanks in Advance.

    A Smartform can be maintained in many languages other than the language that it is created. Translations for the texts have to be maintained for this purpose.
    To maintain the translations:
    Go to transaction SE63 in R/3.
    Go to menu Translation->R/3 Enterprise->Other Long Texts
    Select the object type in the pop up. Smartform(SSF) object type is found under Forms and Styles(FS).
    Enter the name of the Smart form and choose the source and target language. This would open a screen with the Smartform code in Source language on the top and an editor with the same code in the bottom.
    Find the text for which you need to maintain the translation and insert the translation in that place. As usual after required texts are maintained Save and Activate.
    To see the translated Smartform create an output type and assign the smartform and the driver program to this output type. In the transaction that sends output to this smartform, select the output type and select the language in which the smartform has to be displayed (translations have to be maintained in this lanuage).This will give the smartform in the required language.

  • R2 CU2 Software/Hardware Inventory updates taking very long to show up in the console after CU2 update

    I have recently updated my ConfigMgr 2012 R2 infrastructure from CU1 to CU2 prior to a large migration from 2007 R3. I ran a bunch of tests prior to the migration with the CU1 update and didn't notice any major issues with clients reporting in initially. 
    I am noticing with CU2 that the initial hardware and software inventory coming from the clients is significantly delayed.  I am seeing processing take 2-3 days to show up and register in the admin console.  I have a colleague at a consulting company
    that is noticing the same thing after applying CU2.  I depend on some file information and OS inventory (x86-based PC/x64-based PC) information that is gathered for collections and this post-CU2 delay is causing some frustration.
    I am migrating my 2007 R3 clients via WSUS/SUP migration via site level group policy and all of them are getting the RTM 5.00.7958.1000 client with no issues at all and I am trying to ensure they get the CU2 client 5.00.7958.1303 update afterwards via the
    join to the collection based on hardware/software inventory but again, this delay is obscene.
    I am running one primary parent server and a bunch of secondary servers in local offices, all running on Windows 2012 R2, SQL Standard 2012 SP1 CU8 (primary parent server) and SQL Express 2012 SP1 CU8 (secondary site servers).
    What is interesting is that the workstations and servers are getting the appropriate policies (client and Endpoint) from the ConfigMgr infrastructure and the UI on the workstations/servers reflects this but the Admin Console is not reflecting these
    updates/changes as they get applied, the delay mentioned above.
    Has anyone noticed the same thing with CU2?  If so, any suggestions?  Any help would be appreciated.

    I see it successfully process in a normal amount of time in InventoryAgent.log.  It is taking it's time from the MP to the primary.  Right now, I have 1712 machines migrated and only 91 of them have processed hardware/software inventory and is
    reflecting in the admin console on the primary site server since I started migrating Monday evening. Something is up or has changed with CU2. I never saw this much of a delay with CU1. 

  • How can I get a local path of the local disk with swf

    Since FileReference.download() doesn't download multiple
    files, I want to download files with php ftp_get by FTP.
    I need to pass the local path of the local disk where I can
    download the files from a remote serveur. How can I get a prompt to
    have a user choose a folder on his computor (local disk), if any
    way possible?

    OK, at least 3 is working.
    I don't know how you have a Tape Recorder icon on your Home Screen. I cannot add one myself. But, I am running Holo Launcher in replacement of the default LG "Optimus" User Interface. It's much better in my opinion.
    Try long pressing the icon and select Edit and maybe you can change some attribute of the icon.
    Another thing you could do, is long-press an empty area of your desktop, to add an icon. Select Shortcut, then Select Contact, and scroll through your contact list and choose the contact that you added for *86.
    You realize if you have voice mail you haven't heard, there is a tape recorder icon in the notification bar, which you touch and pull down, then press it to dial voicemail.
    If that functionality doesn't work, you MIGHT want to consider doing a factory data reset on your device, but that is going to nuke all your personalizations and cause you work to set up again.

  • How to get current locale / language

    Hi,
    I am trying to change the default startup settings for a CDE session, and I need to edit the file
    /usr/dt/config/lang/sys.session
    There are two possibilities:
    /usr/dt/config/C/sys.session
    or
    /usr/dt/config/en_US.UTF-8/sys.session
    How can I find out what is my current locale so that I can edit the correct file?
    Also, I am troubleshooting the problem from a remote VNC connection (su to user and start vncserver). Will the locale from the VNC connection differ from the local X session?
    Thank you in advance.

    The default locale is normally set in /etc/default/init , but you can normally view them by running the "locale" command, or simply by checking your environment using the "env" command.

  • Inventory Value Item Group

    What is the best way to get the inventory value by item group?
    We currently use the standard valutation method.
    I have seen the Stock Valuation Report, but this only gives us the option of Moving Average / FIFO / Pricelist.
    I have also seen that I could do it with the Stock Posting, but this will not let me select the stock by posting date.

    Hello,
    If you have G/L method by item group then you have mapped accordingly in Chart of Account in Asset drower so when you run trial balance report .in this report you should only select these ledger which you want to group amount .
    You can also prepare financial template only for live stock.
    I think it will help you otherwise you should go for report part.
    Thanks

  • Hardware inventory for windows 8.1 SCCM 2007

    I have SCCM 2007  primary site with SP2/R3 installed.
    I have also installed KB for windows 8 and for windows 8.1
    I only stood up two clients with windows 8.1. For one reason or another each time I try to get hardware inventory I get the following.
    failed to retrieve the requested  schedule 80041002
    failed to send schedule 80041002.
    The MP has received the software inventory and does process it  according to MP_SINv but Hardware fails.
    I have reset the wmi repository recreated guid keys  standard wmi practices.  One of the bigger issues is the fact that wmidiag is not supported by windows 8.1 has any one ran into this issue?

    It's actually silly I forgot to update my MOF update collection to include 2207 sccm client version. After the collection update and sms_def.mof and configuration.mof files got copied to user's computer hardware inventory ran as scheduled

  • Inventory value increase

    Hi,
    (Initially wrongly posted this in BI and hence repeating here)
    Is there any way I can post a transaction to increase the inventory value ?
    We have a requirement.
    After the product is manufactured it (Wine)
    is kept in warehouse for curing purpose . ( Temp on and off at cost including handling charges)
    The curing cost is paid every week.
    The cost has to be increased to the inventory cost instead of keeping under expenses.
    ie These are charges are to be capitalized .
    End of it every Day Ithe system should pasa accounting as
    Dr Inventory
    Cr accrual
    End of the week on paymnet to vendor by ivoice payment
    Dr accrual
    Cr vendor
    How do I push the expenses to Inventory ?
    Thanks in advance
    Chitras

    Thanks Guys. I was on vacation for 3 weeks .
    My doubt is how to handle the requirement of adding the warehouse charges on weekly basis to the price of the FG so the inventoy price has to go up on weekly intervals.
    What should be the best approach.
    is it that Every wek change the price by MR21 or any other  alternate apprioach available
    Thanks, Chitras

  • LSMW: What are Fixed Values and Translations for?

    Hi,
    I'm working with LSMW and I don't know what are Fixed Values and Translations for? They are on the "Maintain Fixed Values, Translations, User-Defined Routines" step.
    Thanks in advance,
    Gerard

    this is the step,we can process the reusable rules of a project.
    <b>Fixed value:</b> Here you can specify length, type, flag for lowercase/uppercase and value in addition to the description.
    this is nothing but CONSTANTS in your report programs.
    <b>Translation:</b> Here you can enter information on the source field and the target field.
    for example, your input file language value will be 2 characters and we need to send only 1 for LANG in SAP.
    so here we have to do the translation of 2chars to 1 char.
    so, we will give these set of values in this step.

    this value as to come in <h:outputText id="deminimisLabel" value=" should come value from java script" />

  • New Install - What hardware will I get?

    We're moving to Pittsburgh and have an install date of 8/6. I want to do my homework and see what TV "should" be connected to what device. If there are any gotchas on setting up my home network, etc... So any ideas on what hardware I'll get?
    If it matters I ordered the FiOS Triple Play with Ultimate HD, Digital Voice and 35/35 Internet. We picked the Multi-Room DVR package with one DVR and two Set Top Boxes.
    Sorry if I posted this in the wrong place...
