How to View Configuration Manager Client Agent Settings

Applies To: System Center Configuration Manager 2007, System Center Configuration Manager 2007 R2, System Center Configuration Manager 2007 R3, System Center Configuration Manager 2007 SP1, System Center Configuration Manager 2007 SP2

In Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager 2007, you view the client agent settings on a Configuration Manager client by using the resource manager (UIResourceMgrClass) object GetClientAgentSettings to get a ClientAgentSettings object.

To view the Configuration Manager client agent settings

  1. Get the Configuration Manager client resource manager object (UIResourceMgrClass).

  2. From the UIResourceMgrClass object, call GetClientAgentSettings to get a Programs collection of available programs.

  3. Display the ClientAgentSettings properties.

Example

The following example method displays a list of client agent property values.

For information about calling the sample code, see How to Call Configuration Manager COM Automation Objects.

Sub ClientAgentSettings

    ' On Error Resume Next.

    Dim oUIResManager 
    Dim oAgentSettings

    Set oUIResManager = createobject("UIResource.UIResourceMgr")

    If oUIResManager Is Nothing Then
        Wscript.Echo "Couldn't create Resource Manager - quitting"
        Exit Sub
    End If

    Set oAgentSettings=oUIResManager.GetClientAgentSettings()

    If oAgentSettings Is Nothing Then
        Set oUIResManager=Nothing
        Wscript.Echo "Couldn't get software distribution information - quitting"
        Exit Sub
    End If
                                
    ' Display client agent settings.
    WScript.Echo "Day reminder interval: " & _
           FormatNumber(oAgentSettings.DayReminderInterval/60,0) + " minutes"

    WScript.StdOut.Write "Display new program notification: " 
    
    If oAgentSettings.DisplayNewProgramNotification = 0 Then
