Anyone here have used SPM or WSUS to inventory all machines and see what Java version is installed on the client machines? Appreciate your help.
Sure, plenty of times.
If you want to check the machines directly (in case someone installed it on their own) you'll want to be sure that you have a Managed Computers Inventory task set up so that you can collect the data to report on:
Generate a managed systems inventory
From there if you go to Administration and Reporting -> Reporting -> Configuration Management Reports there's a section that should relate to installed software similar to Programs and Features.
Then you should be able to duplicate/edit the canned report and edit it to filter down to only Java installs.
