Introduction SQL Query All SCCM Applications with no Deployments

When it comes to your SCCM Infrastructure cleanup, we all try to push the task to the next available engineer because of the manual efforts involved and too many steps. Also, there are chances of Human Error in Manual cleanup/deletion.

Scope

Scope: This work instruction applies to the ConfigMgr Delivery Team. It doesn’t cover other team tasks.

We will try to cover all those steps that involved incomplete infrastructure cleanup, starting with Application Cleanup as 1st task.

  1. I agree that this query is helpful in identifying “empty” (for lack of a better term) applications that are just taking up space in your ConfigMgr (EndpointMgr) environment… but there is a scenario where you do not want to delete an application that you’re no longer deploying — if you have a newer application that you have supersedence configured for to ensure that the ConfigMgr client removes the previous app and installs the latest one.

    In those cases, you just simply need to monitor compliance for the previous application and as soon as you have no instances of it in your environment, you can remove the supersedence configuration on the newer application and delete the older application with no deployments.

  2. v_Package pkg on pkg.SecurityKey = apps.ModelName

    this information shows information only for applications as apps.model name contains only scope*** and no id’s contains, which is not available for other packages, drivers etc…
