WUfB empty device name

[tdk1069]

Howdy,

 

I'm trailing this now as I'd like to ditch WSUS as it's not as reliable as I would like.

 

I have it set up on a pilot set of computers, updates are coming in, machines that have never done a feature update now have done them and caught up. My issue is the reporting. The Device Names in the azure reportings are all blank, "---" or "#" - I've followed the MS guide for GPO policies regarding the telemetry etc. The reports seems to be correct otherwise (reporting updates, os versions etc etc) just seems to be missing names (I have enabled Allow device name to be sent in windows diagnostic data as one of the Telemetry options)

edit: I do get the device ID, and I can then goto Azure Devices and search for that ID to get the name, just seems long winded

Any ideas ?
