Microsoft Assessment and Planning Toolkit is a agentless tool that will find computers on a network and perform a detailed inventory of the computers using WMI. The Microsoft Assessment and Planning (MAP) Toolkit is an agentless tool designed to simplify and streamline the IT infrastructure planning process across multiple scenarios through network-wide automated discovery and assessments. MAP performs an inventory of heterogeneous IT environments and provides you with usage information for SQL Server and servers in the Core CAL Suite, Windows 2000 Server migration assessment, SQL Server 2008 discovery and assessment for consolidation, and a readiness assessment for the most widely used Microsoft technologies including Windows 7, Office 2010, and Windows Server 2008 R2. MAP also provides server virtualization scenarios to help you identify underutilized resources and the hardware specifications needed to successfully consolidate your servers using Microsoft Hyper-V technology.

This tool incorporates the assessment features provided by the Windows Vista Hardware Assessment Solution Accelerator, including localization of the Windows Vista assessment reports in French, German, Japanese, Korean, Spanish, and Brazilian Portuguese.

MAP generates reports containing both summary and detailed assessment results for each migration scenario. The results are provided in Microsoft Excel workbooks and Microsoft Word documents. Reports are generated for the following scenarios:
1. Identification of currently installed Windows client operating systems, their hardware, and recommendations for migration to Windows 7.
2. Reporting of antivirus and anti-malware programs installed on the desktop and if the Windows Firewall is turned on.
3. Identification of currently installed Microsoft Office software and recommendations for migration to Microsoft Office 2010.
4. Identification of currently installed Windows Server operating systems, underlying hardware and devices, as well as recommendations for migration to Windows Server 2008 R2.
5. Identification of currently installed Linux operating systems and underlying hardware for virtualization on Hyper-V or management by System Center Operations Manager R2.
6. Detailed assessment and reporting of server utilization, as well as recommendations for server consolidation and virtual machine placement using Hyper-V or Virtual Server 2005 R2.
7. Discovery of Microsoft SQL Server databases, instances, and selected characteristics.
8. Identification of SQL Server host machines and SQL Server components.
9. Identification of virtual machines running on both Hyper-V and VMware, their hosts, and details about hosts and guests.
10. Assessment of Windows 2000 Server environments and inventory.
