Hello all,
I have an SMP which is used by multiple teams in different physical locations. I have configured permissions on the NS console to prevent folks from one location to manage computers from another location (to keep the console clean for these folks and to prevent mishaps) by assigning these permissions to Organizational Groups (which are imported from AD). So a tech A from location A can see computers in the Organizational Group A only, and cannot manage Computers in Group B.
This works well, except when it is a new computer. If a computer is entered via 'Predefined Computers', or if it imaged via Initial Deployment (where I prompt for the computer name), then there is no way to assign the computer to the correct Organizational Group, or to any group ... I have to wait until the AD Import takes place on a schedule.
So my questions is .... is there a way add logic to my imaging job to add the computer I have just imaged to an Organizational Group of my choice? There is a task to do something like this but it expects input from the person launching the task, so I am unable to use a Token. I cannot use this task. I've seen that I can also create an Automation Task, but then I cannot add the specific computer I am imaging nor can I include the Automation task into my imaging job.
Has anyone ever needed to do something similar? I am a noob with Workflow, has anyone created a Workflow that might accomplish this?
Thanks
Alex
