Could be really anything, this machine is part of LOB1 and this machine is
part of LOB2 for example and they want this setting over this setting but
they are both in the same OU.

 

GPO Preferences is a thought.

Just curious, what makes the different enough to run different commands on
different machines?  Of the top of my head, you could put a registry setting
on them via GPO Preferences, then have the DT requirements check for the
different registry settings.

So trying to figure out how others do this:

 

Application called App1

 

The App can be installed using 2 command lines:

 

Command line1: install.exe /test1

Command line2: install.exe /test2

 

You want to use App1 and target it to a collection based of a user group
called: Contoso\App1 with 100 machines in it.

 

50 of the machines need command line: install.exe /test1

50 of the machines need command line: install.exe /test2

 

I can create 2 DT':

 

DT1: install.exe /test1

DT2: install.exe /test2

 

In order to do requirements for both DT's its best to bounce of something
local on the machine (ex: OS), but what if there really isn't anything
different about the 100 machines 50 of them need to do a specific thing (ex:
/test1) and the other 50 need to do some other specific thing (ex: /test2).
I was thinking of doing a requirement based off of AD group, but from
everything I read requirements shouldn't use AD groups since that could
cause high load at evaluation time.  

 

Do others just create 2 apps even though it's the same app just with a
different command line and then create 2 collections and target those 2
collections?
