identify GPT and UEFI in CM

Brass Contributor

Hi fellow technical pros

 

Quick question I have.

 

I have large estate (approx. 7000 clients), using HP end user devices and we use 1910 Configuration manager and Intune, co-managed, hybrid AD joined and using 1809 for Windows 10.

 

Am I able to identify running either a report in Configuration manager or elsewhere to find out

 

  • Any machines in the estate still running BIOS rather than UEFI
  • any machines which are still configured with a Master boot record rather than GPT? 

 

I am aware within CM as part of a task sequence I can enable this functionality but before we do this I need to understand what the current state of play is.

 

Is there a way for me to achieve this?

 

Many Thanks

@isotonic_uk You should be able to leverage Configuration Manager hardware inventory for this. The information you need can be found in the UEFI property of the SMS_Firmware class and the Type property of the Win32_DiskPartition class respectively. See Task sequence steps to manage BIOS to UEFI conversion for more detailed information.
