Your issue is with unknown machines only correct? Daniel Ratliff

I'm confused.. So you have query 1 - if netbios name like "abcd" and this query is attached to your laptops collection Query 2 - if netbios name like "efgh" and this is attached to your desktops collection Devices will always show up in All Systems. If I understand collections correctly, you have to either have the incremental update or a schedule or both for the collections to update on their own from a query. If you right click on these collections and click update collection membership, does it not update? If not might be a problem with collection evaluator. I'll leave it up to the experts from here..

The problem is the logic we use to determine what is a laptop and what is a desktop is defined by the first 4 letters of the machine name. This is easy to do in AD, and SCCM just adds it to the right Collection, but to move within a collection to collection with this type of query, that is what I am not sure about. So what this tells me is that that machine will be in both Laptop and Desktop, which is not good either. hmmm From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Taxter, Latisha Sent: Tuesday, July 08, 2014 1:57 PM To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: [mssms] RE: Moving a machine from All Systems collection to a defined one Do you have your Laptops and Desktops collection set to "use incremental updates for this collection"? From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Kevin Johnston Sent: Tuesday, July 8, 2014 10:52 AM To: '[email protected]' Subject: [mssms] Moving a machine from All Systems collection to a defined one I have a Windows 7 TS that images machines that are brand new (or test vms) and everything works great. I have a collection called Laptops and one called Desktops that have a limiting collection of All Systems. The membership rules for these 2 collections is that it looks at AD and when it finds the machine matching the requirements it puts it into the proper collection - this works fine. But now that I have starting imaging machines out of Unknown it only adds them to All systems/All desktop and Server clients. How do I get the machine to get into the proper collection? I don't want to include the All systems collection as a membership rule, so I am not sure how I can do this without manually adding the new machine to the proper collection. I am thinking I need to create another query on the Laptop and Desktop collection to search the All Systems collection to add the "new" machine.
