Get Assettag from dell computers

[Orionbelt]

How can i get assesttag from dell computers. i got everything else, but couldn't find the way to get assettag...here is my script.
================================
Locator = ObjectOpen("WbemScripting.SWbemLocator")
Service = Locator.ConnectServer()
Security = Service.Security_
Security.ImpersonationLevel = 3
Class = "Win32_ComputerSystemProduct"
Instance = Service.InstancesOf(Class)
Enum = ObjectCollectionOpen(Instance)

Class1 = "Win32_NetworkAdapterConfiguration"
Instance1 = Service.InstancesOf(Class1)
hEnum1 = ObjectCollectionOpen(Instance1)
Obj1 = ObjectCollectionNext(hEnum1)


Obj = ObjectCollectionNext(Enum)
If Obj==0 Then Break
man = Obj.Vendor
model = Obj.Name
serial = Obj.IdentifyingNumber
varName = obj.Name
;ASSETTAG= obj.AssetTagNum

ObjectCollectionClose(Enum)
ObjectClose(Instance)
ObjectClose(Security)
ObjectClose(Service)
ObjectClose(Locator)
=====================================

Win32_SystemEnclosure class seems to contain a property called SMBIOSAssetTag that looks interesting. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa394474(v=vs.85).aspx

Code (winbatch) Select Expand

objLocator = ObjectCreate("WbemScripting.SWbemLocator")
objService = objLocator.ConnectServer(".","root/cimv2","","")
objSecurity = objService.Security_
objSecurity.ImpersonationLevel = 3
class =  "Win32_SystemEnclosure"
; query instances
query = "SELECT * FROM ":Class
colInstances = objService.ExecQuery(query)

; loop once for each instance
ForEach objInstance in colInstances
  ;Check if Object is EMPTY
  type = ObjectTypeGet(objInstance)
  if type=="EMPTY" then break
   ; obtain properties
   propCaption = objInstance.Caption
   ;propDescription = objInstance.Description
   ;propManufacturer = objInstance.Manufacturer
   ;propModel = objInstance.Model
   ;propName = objInstance.Name
   ;propSerialNumber = objInstance.SerialNumber
   propSMBIOSAssetTag = objInstance.SMBIOSAssetTag
   ;propStatus = objInstance.Status
   ;propTag = objInstance.Tag
   ;propVersion = objInstance.Version
   Pause(propCaption, propSMBIOSAssetTag)
Next

; close object handles
colInstances = 0
objSecurity = 0
objService = 0
objLocator = 0

I found a couple of resources online that said it was actually the "SerialNumber" property, but on my Dell optiplex960, none of these properties work.  Does "SMBIOSAssetTag" or "SerialNumber" work for anyone else?

Deana script works fine on all my dells. I don't have 960...but tested on precision, 790,780,7010,9010.. .......

This is the way I have always gotten the asset tag from Dell, HP, IBM, and Panasonic computers:

Code (winbatch) Select Expand


Asset = `N/A`
Model = `N/A`
Vendor = `N/A`
objLocator = ObjectCreate("WbemScripting.SWbemLocator")
objService = objLocator.ConnectServer(``,`root/cimv2`,``,``)
if objService <> 0
objSecurity = objService.Security_
objSecurity.ImpersonationLevel = 3
class =  "Win32_ComputerSystemProduct"
query = "SELECT * FROM Win32_ComputerSystemProduct"
colInstances = objService.ExecQuery(query)
if colInstances <> 0 then
ForEach objInstance in colInstances
type = ObjectTypeGet(objInstance)
if type=="EMPTY" then break
Asset = StrTrim(objInstance.IdentifyingNumber)
Model = StrTrim(objInstance.Name)
Vendor = StrTrim(objInstance.Vendor)
Next
endif
if colInstances <> 0 then ObjectClose(colInstances)
ObjectClose(objSecurity)
endif
ObjectClose(objService)
ObjectClose(objLocator)

Message(`Results`,StrCat(`Asset = `,Asset,@CRLF,`Model = `,Model,@CRLF,`Vendor = `,Vendor))

Good Stuff! Thanks for posting. It looks like the IdentifyingNumber property of the Win32_ComputerSystemProduct class seems to do the job.
