Hello,
I'm unsure how exactly to display the version of Symantec Endpoint Protection 12.x in my Inventory.
I'm guessing I need extension attributes to accomplish this and I have a few that I hacked together or was given, yet I'm unsure how to exactly form the necessary script for SEP.
Thanks for any assistance.

I don't use SEP, but if it's a normal application bundle, look inside for an info.plist and then read out the CFBundleShortVersionString. This is what I use to report my McAfee Security.app



#!/bin/sh

#

############################################################################

# Extension Attribute to display Security for Mac application version.

# 

############################################################################

McAfeeSecurityVersion=`/usr/bin/defaults read /Applications/McAfee Security.app/Contents/Info CFBundleShortVersionString `

echo "<result> v$McAfeeSecurityVersion </result>"



exit 0

Excellent. Now I know where to look.
Thanks.

This is what I came up with.



#!/bin/sh

#

############################################################################

# Extension Attribute to display Security for Mac application version.

#

############################################################################

SEPVersion=`/usr/bin/defaults read /Applications/Symantec Solutions/Symantec Endpoint Protection.app/Contents/Info CFBundleShortVersionString `

echo "<result> v$SEPVersion </result>"



exit 0


Added to Inventory search and it's working fine.



Thanks again.
