Avalanche: How to report the name of the device with an avalanche package

Environment:

CE 6.0 device

Avalanche 6.1

What does this package do:

• Will report the device name as seen in the System Properties Page
• Will warmboot your device after downloading the package

Results:

In your device properties, you will have a property group "Reg" and the value will be the Device Name.

You can use this as a column header in the device inventory if you want to report on your devices this way:

Logic within the _RegProps.prf (which is main part of the package):

# Wavelink property file.
reg.prop.count=1
reg.prop.0=Reg.Name
reg.prop.Reg.Name.key=HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\Ident
reg.prop.Reg.Name.name=Name

NOTE: It's important that there are no blank lines or else your script might not work
