RappScallion asked a question.
Is it possible to automatically delete computers from Snow Inventory if they are in a specific OU in Active Directory or have certain object attributes?
In our organisation we have several systems for managing inventory of not only computers and software but also printers, furniture, expensive hardware basically anything that costs a lot. The main one is UBW (Unit4). It's set up so that if a computer is decommissioned then its computer object is moved to a special OU in Active Directory. Is there a way to set up a rule or routine that makes Snow delete a computer from its database immediately if it's found in that OU or have specific object attribute rather than just quarantine it after a while of inactivity?
Hi RappScallion,
indeed that is possible!
Create a script to read out the OU
create a Custom field in SLM (yes/No)
Import the information from your exported OU with the flag Yes for your custom field
create a sql routine to grab those information and delete the computer objects.
