This class contains information about the client computer’s video adapter and monitor. This class is included in a default hardware inventory operation.
Table C.60 Video Attribute Class (SMS_G_System_VIDEO)
| Property (Bold if collected) | Data type | Example | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| ActualColorResolution | uint32 | 24 | |
| AdapterChipType | string | "Mach64: Rage I" | Indicates the name of the adapter chip. |
| AdapterCompatibility | string | "ATI Technologies" | Key. |
| AdapterDACType | string | Indicates the DAC type of the adapter. | |
| AdapterDescription | string | "ATI Rage/Rage II PCI (ati_m64)" | Indicates the descriptive name of the video adapter. |
| AdapterRAM | uint32 | 2048 | Kilobytes. Indicates the video adapter memory size in bytes. |
| AdapterType | string | Indicates the type of video adapter. | |
| BitsPerPixel | uint32 | 8 | Indicates the number of bits per pixel. |
| ColorPlanes | uint32 | 4 | Indicates the number of color planes. |
| ColorTableEntries | uint32 | 256 | Indicates the number of color table entries. |
| DeviceSpecificPens | uint32 | 3 | Indicates the number of pens. |
| DriverDate | datetime | See “Date and Time Formats” at the beginning of Appendix B. | Indicates the date and time of the currently installed video driver. |
| GroupID | uint32 | 2 | Within one ResourceId (one SMS client), GroupID distinguishes one instance of a class from another. Objects with the same ResourceId and GroupID are “deltas” of one another, describing the same hardware inventory instance at different points in time. This is not a collectable property. |
| HorizontalResolution | uint32 | 640 | Indicates the horizontal resolution of the display. |
| INFFilename | string | "C:\\WINNT\\ SYSTEM32\\ DRIVERS" | Indicates the path to the INF file. |
| INFSection | string | Indicates the section of the INF file where the Win32 video configuration information resides. | |
| InstalledDisplayDrivers | string | "ati_m64.drv" | Indicates the name of the installed display driver. |
| MonitorManufacturer | string | "(Standard monitor types)" | Indicates the manufacturer of the video adapter. |
| MonitorType | string | "(Unknown Monitor)" | Indicates the type of monitor. |
| Name | string | "Current Video Configuration" | Key. Indicates the name of the video adapter. Maximum length of the label is 256 characters. |
| PixelsPerXLogicalInch | uint32 | Indicates the number of pixels per logical inch along the horizontal direction (X axis) of the display. | |
| PixelsPerYLogicalInch | uint32 | Indicates the number of pixels per logical inch along the vertical direction (Y axis) of the display. | |
| RefreshRate | uint32 | 72 | Indicates the video adapter’s refresh rate in Hertz. |
| ResourceId | uint32 | 42 | Key. Inventory items with the same ResourceId were all discovered on the same SMS client. The ResourceId identifies the SMS client.
A ResourceId is an integer generated for the sake of SQL; it is not unique outside the site and should be used only for short-term querying purposes. It is not a collectable property. |
| RevisionID | uint32 | 1 | Objects with the same ResourceId and GroupID are deltas, differentiated from one another by RevisionID number. The highest number is the most recent update. This is not a collectable property. |
| ScanMode | string | Indicates the video adapter’s scan mode. | |
| ScreenHeight | uint32 | 127 | Indicates the height of the display screen. |
| ScreenWidth | uint32 | 169 | Indicates the width of the display screen. |
| SystemPaletteEntries | uint32 | 256 | Indicates the number of system palette entries. |
| TimeStamp | datetime | See “Date and Time Formats” at the beginning of Appendix B. | Indicates when the information in this object was last revised. This is not a collectable property. |
| VerticalResolution | uint32 | 480 | Indicates the vertical resolution of the display. |
