SCCM 2007 discover only 32 bit computers in OU
Hello,
We are using SCCM 2007. Basically we have an OU in Active Directory with Windows 7 x64 computers and Windows 7 x86 computers. Is there a way in System Center to only discover the 32 bit computers? I know how to limit this in the Collections themselves but not the Discovery process.
Thanks
David

This solution is only available to members.
To access this solution, you must be a member of Experts Exchange.
even if you do this it will still discover all of the nodes it will not seperate them. all you are doing is creating two seperate queries to two different OU's. It will still discover all of the machines there's no way to filter by OS until the machines are discovered. I mentioned this before.
hi ActiveDirectoryman,
In SCCM you can restrict where exacty you want to search ur AD by providing the exact OU.
In my solution we need to create 2 seperate OU's and ask SCCM to look for OU which has only 32 bit systems.
Now it will be responsibility of the AD admin or the person who adds the system in domain to move the system to exact OU (as explained in my comment).

no. it queries active directory for updated objects. you will have to do inside sccm.
