Forgive me for asking something that may already exist but I have spent some time looking and have been unable to find it. Does anyone have an Extension Attribute to determine the version of CrashPlan? Thank you in advance.

    Tested this out and seems to do the job. 

    #!/bin/sh
# Find CrashPlan version if installed. 

crashplanInstalled=`cd /Applications/ && ls | grep "CrashPlan.app"`
if [ $crashplanInstalled ]; then
    crashplanVersion=`defaults read /Applications/CrashPlan.app/Contents/Info CFBundleShortVersionString`
    echo "<result>$crashplanVersion</result>" 
else
    echo "<result>Not Installed</result>"
fi
exit 0

    Howdy,

    Has anyone here noticed that since the 4.6.x upgrade, the client still reports to the JSS as 4.3.4? When the app is running, it reports as version 4.6.0 in the CrashPlan interface, but the CFBundleShortVersionString still reports the app as being version 4.3.4.

    This seems to be specific to clients that were upgraded directly via the server. We had one machine that we directly installed 4.6.0 and it is reporting correctly.
