Auto-assign Computers to Groups in Deployment Console

Auto-assign Computers to Groups in Deployment Console

Filed under: Deployment Solution Automation

We had problems when new computers were being inserted into the deployment console. We had so many new computers and so many groups to place them in that it became an administrative nightmare! We found a way to have the Deployment Console automatically place new computers into specific groups based on the computer name. Keep in mind our solution was SQL code so you don't have to place them based on computer name only.

Altiris IRC Chat Room

Altiris IRC Chat Room

Filed under: Support
Submitted by youngengr on Tue, 2007-09-18 09:20.

As an Altiris Administrator for my company, I found it fairly easy to find solutions to my problems from either the Juice or the Knowledge base. Then I took a Notification class with 8 other Altiris Administrators and discovered that I was learning more about Altiris and its products just by talking with my classmates on our breaks.

I decided that Altiris should have a chat room where Administrators can discuss issues and help others struggling. I was unable to find a chat room so I created one of my own. I decided to use IRC because it was easy enough that anybody could use it.
