Additional Notes

Convert Windows OS Version to YYH1/2 format

Slider

If not enabled, CI Sync will pass through the Windows OS Version value in its native format (i.e. a value such as 10.0.26200.7623).

If enabled, CI Sync will transform the Major Version number from Lansweeper Cloud which is matched against a mapping table to return the YYH1/2 formatted version number for the operating system.
For example: given the Windows version 10.0.26200.7623, the main release number (the third value) “26200” is matched against:

  • 19042 → 20H2

  • 19043 → 21H1

  • 22000 → 21H2

  • 19044 → 21H2

  • 22621 → 22H2

  • 19045 → 22H2

  • 22631 → 23H2

  • 26100 → 24H2

  • 26200 → 25H2

In this example, CI Sync will persist 25H2 as the Windows Operating System Version value on the related Windows CIs.

  1. After modifying the settings, scroll to the bottom of the page, tick the “I consent…” checkbox and finally click the Save connection button.

  2. You can now run a sync job and the amended settings will be applied causing the CI Sync Data Sync rules to be modified accordingly.

Importantly

Make sure you consciously override the setting against either your TEST or PROD environment (i.e. your TEST vs PROD sync jobs).

For more information on how to use TEST vs PROD Connection Settings please read Understanding the use of CI Sync Connection Settings.

Syncfish strongly recommend making changes for TEST environment/sync jobs first. Only modify PROD related settings after thoroughly validating the intended results in TEST.
