Hello,

How do I edit the SQL database so it populates another another column under the MDT > Database > Computer

I would like to add "Computername"

I have added the column in the database like this:

180432-image.png

..and from another page, https://syscenramblings.wordpress.com/2016/01/15/mdt-database-and-custom-values/
they describe that I need to query the database like this: 

EXECUTE sp_refreshview ‘[dbo].[ComputerSettings]’  
EXECUTE sp_refreshview ‘[dbo].[LocationSettings]’  
EXECUTE sp_refreshview ‘[dbo].[MakeModelSettings]’  
EXECUTE sp_refreshview ‘[dbo].[RoleSettings]’

I guess that sp_refreshview won't do in my case, how do I query this?

Another question:

Where do I find all my data if I'd like to manually delete an entry in the database?

Thaaaank you!

    Hi,

    Thanks for posting in Microsoft MECM Q&A forum.

    ==>Where do I find all my data if I'd like to manually delete an entry in the database?
    It's really not suggest to munaully delete/add any entry in the database, because it is a really high risk opration and may destroy the whole database

    ==>I guess that sp_refreshview won't do in my case, how do I query this?
    I will do more research about the query, if there is any update, I will keep you on posted.

    Thanks for your kindly understanding. Have a good day!

    Best regards,
    Simon
