My org has tight control over who can use SCCM console, and even tighter control of task sequences and deployments.
I have an available deployment of our task sequence to all unknown PC’s, and all client systems, media/PXE only. To prevent problems, I’ve password protected the boot images. We’ve been doing this for years with no issues. There are steps you can take<http://osdoa.com/osd-kill-switch/> to help limit the impact of an accidental required TS deployment, like adding a check for a text file on the network as an emergency kill switch.

Then reboot to pxe. There is a role that removes them from the collection and clears the required pxe deployments automatically when the task sequence completes successfully. If you don't want to give techs access to SCCM, you could probably bar the collection membership off of an AD group. — Sent from Mailbox<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.dropbox.com_mailbox&d=AwMFaQ&c=r_B2dqKkHczsuXPCSs5DOw&r=krYjy-Xm1tps1F_nkG9sNKQIT3ZPFrUh3rvr18goJ2E&m=dt9ocDZbm4TfVPKy1wJyFCScS3d8I1VFXTajf1dwvXA&s=t_iIuiQzvqqimGq364F-kUgpoTKHmuep_0y-9MQqjKk&e=> On Tue, Mar 31, 2015 at 3:19 PM, Chris Carbone <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: We currently need to delete the computer out of SCCM each time we want to image a computer. Is there a way where we can image a computer without doing this? We want it to stay in SCCM for asset management from another system that is pulling from SCCM.
