Content packs are meant to give you a leg-up in creating distributable content and are also a great way to learn by example! Each content pack is meant to be a "whole solution", putting together all of the pieces of FileWave to accomplish a goal. This FileWave Content Pack is built to report on battery health and power use settings for macOS and Windows clients. It is comprised of all of the contents listed below: ## What You Get in this Content Pack This content pack provides: #### Custom Fields: "Custom Fields" are a terrific way to extend the "inventory attributes" of your devices. In this content pack we have included: - - - **Battery Name:** Typically the "model name" of the battery - **Battery Manufacturer:** The maker of the battery - **Battery Serial Number:** The serial number of this specific battery - **Battery Cycle Count:** The number of times a battery has been fully charged/discharged (only some batteries support) - **Battery Capacity:** Battery Capacity is represented as a percent of charge the battery can take compared to its original capacity. A lower percentage means degradation of storage ability. - **Display Sleep Setting:** The amount of time (in seconds) before the display is configured to go to sleep after idle - **Disk Sleep Setting:** The amount of time (in seconds) before the hard drive is configured to go to sleep after idle - **System Sleep Setting:** The amount of time (in seconds) before the entire system is configured to go to sleep after idleNote that the battery information collected above does not try to account for multiple batteries, so you may want to adjust if you have that scenario in your environment.
#### Reports (aka Inventory Queries): Reports are a great way of measuring the effectiveness of distributing content, and can be used for all sorts of compliance purposes as well. Trust, but verify is what reports are all about. In this pack we have included the following reports: - - - **Battery Report:** Includes information on devices and their batteries - **Low Battery Capacity Report:** Includes information on v=batteries that are lower than 30% capacity...you can modify this threshold by modifying the report criteria - **Power Scheme Report:** Includes information on devices and their power saving settings for display, disk and system #### Dashboards: Dashboards build upon reports and are an incredibly powerful tool for showing aggregated data in charts and graphs. This pack provides the following dashboard(s): - - - **Power/Battery Dashboard:** This dashboard breaks down most of the important power savings and battery utilization information for your environment ## Ingredients - FileWave Central Admin & Credentials - Base64 API Token| **Windows Content Pack** | [Windows Content Pack Download](https://kb.filewave.com/attachments/398 "Download Pack") |
