# Configure system overview - msinfo32 metrics

Configure the system overview - msinfo32 metrics for Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager for Investigation \(MECM\).

## About this task

**Important:**

Starting with the Brazil release, Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager for Investigation is being prepared for future deprecation. It will be hidden and no longer installed on new instances but will continue to be supported. For details, see the [Deprecation Process \[KB0867184\]](https://support.servicenow.com/kb_view.do?sysparm_article=KB0867184) article in the Now Support Knowledge Base.

## Before you begin

Role required: sn\_cimaf.sn\_cimaf\_admin

## Procedure

1.  Open the Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager.

2.  Create an MECM script with the name `createMSInfo32File`.

    For more information, see [Create a script in Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/it-service-management/service-operations-workspace/create-mecm-script.md).

3.  Provide the following code in the script block.

    ```
    Param(
    [Parameter(Mandatory=$True)]
    [string]$scriptName
    )
     
    $filePath = ".\" + $scriptName + ".txt";
     
    #invoke msinfo32 and save data into file
    msinfo32 /report $filePath;
    
    ```

4.  Create an MECM script with the name `checkMsInfo32FileExist`.

    For more information, see [Create a script in Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/it-service-management/service-operations-workspace/create-mecm-script.md).

5.  Provide the following code in the script block.

    ```
    Param(
    [Parameter(Mandatory=$True)]
    [string]$scriptName
    )
     
    $filePath = ".\" + $scriptName + ".txt";
     
    #check if file exist
    $fileExist = Test-Path -Path $filePath;
     
    #read msinfo32 data
    if($fileExist) {
        Write-Host "True"
    }else {
        Write-Host "False";
    }
    
    ```

6.  Create an MECM script with the name `fetchMsInfo32File`.

    For more information, see [Create a script in Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/it-service-management/service-operations-workspace/create-mecm-script.md).

    [Parameter(Mandatory=$True)]
    [string]$scriptName
    )
     
    $filePath = ".\" + $scriptName + ".txt";
     
    #check if file exist
    $fileExist = Test-Path -Path $filePath;
     
    #read msinfo32 data
    if($fileExist) {
        Get-Content $filePath;
        Remove-Item $filePath
    }else {
        Write-Host "File doesn't exist";
    }
    
    ```

8.  Retrieve and copy the script GUID.
