Why easy if you can do it complicated? :)

No need to.

No MDT here, so I believe that's not an option.

I don't have that many rules, simply computer name patter, but I use
customsettings.ini and a userexit script to set the OU variable (can't
remember the exact name) and let the regular domain join step do that using
the variable.

So, the script defines the variable, the step uses it. No (complicated)
conditions required.

We have a domain join step that evaluates conditions based on an HTA the
tech fills out before imaging begins. Depending on these conditions, the
computer joins the domain and is placed in the appropriate OU. There are 3
main conditions we evaluate:

 

OSDRole - TS variable, can be lab, staff, etc.

OSDBusinessArea - Another TS variable, based on department

 

These evaluate fine in our conditions when joining the domain. But the other
condition does a WMI query for the computer name. Unfortunately, at this
point in the imaging process, the computer name in WMI is MININT-XXXXXXX, so
it evaluates as FALSE.

 



 

Do we need to move this step down further in our TS? I don't know how else
to evaluate the computer name (OSDComputerName is available, but there is no
"LIKE" statement).

 



 

Any help appreciated!
