1) Open SQL Server Management Studio and connect to the SQL instance used by PME, typically ION.
2) Open a new query window and copy the text below
/* Below is a query to list all of the device types in the system and their firmware/template information. ExceptionType {5u void "} indicates an issue retrieving firmware/template information.
For PM or CM devices, the major and minor releases are not separated by '.'
