So HP's MIK is a tool provided to help manage HP devices using ConfigMgr. I'm not going to go over this in detail, but to get the full benefit of MIK, you need to deploy a client side install which will create several WMI classes that CM will inventory.

Goals:
- Deploy MIK Client to endpoints & Keep it updated
- This requires you to watch for MIK Client updates and update the script variable.
- Keep the HPIA that is embedded into the MIK install current
Pre-Requirements
- Having HPCMSL already available on the endpoints.
- It will install a version if one isn't already there
- Internet access to HP.com
Discovery Process
- Checks for existance of MIK Client Install
- Checks for MIK Client Install Version
- Checks for MIK's Embedded HPIA Version
If any of those fail, flags as Non-Compliant
Remediation Process
- Checks for existance of MIK Client & Installs if needed
- Checks current installed version and updates if needed
- Checks HPIA version and updates if needed
MIK Client Checks:
HPIA Version Checks:
Custom Functions:
- Get-HPIALatestVersion
- Grabs the latest version of HPIA available from HP.com
- Test-HPCMSL
- Stolen from HP Connect - this will install HPCMSL into a custom location and load module components needed for the script
- Get-InstalledApplication
- Run though registry and creates array of installed applications.

After Client is deployed, scans have run, and inventory reported to CM (With MIK Server Extension installed). I currently only have it setup in "Scan" Mode, to pull data back, I do not have the remediations setup... hence the horrible ratings on my devices in my Lab.
WMI on Client
Installing the MIK Client will add several classes, but the ones I'm interested in are the "HP_ImageAssistant"
$namespace = "ROOT\HP\InstrumentedServices\v1"
$classname = "HP_ImageAssistantRecommendation"
$classname = "HP_ImageAssistantRemediation"
$classname = "HP_ImageAssistantSummary"
Get-CimInstance -Class $classname -Namespace $namespace
This data gets pulled back into the CM Database via Hardware Inventory when you have loaded the MIK Server component and created an HP Patch Assistant configuration.
