A good way to target systems in queries and collections is by Chassis Type. When using a query rule on collections, use these values:
Choose System Enclosure - Chassis Types in the query
Choose a value based on the Chassis Type (see list below)
Let's have a look at the possibilities:
- 1 Other (Virtual Machine)
- 2 Unknown
- 3 Desktop (Virtual machines as well)
- 4 Low Profile Desktop
- 5 Pizza Box
- 6 Mini Tower
- 7 Tower
- 8 Portable (Laptop or Notebook)
- 9 Laptop (Not as popular)
- 10 Notebook (Popular)
- 11 Hand Held
- 12 Docking Station (Laptop or Notebook)
- 13 All in One (Apple Inc.)
- 14 Sub Notebook
- 15 Space-Saving (Thin Client)
- 16 Lunch Box
- 17 Main System Chassis (Physical Server)
- 18 Expansion Chassis
- 19 Sub Chassis
- 20 Bus Expansion Chassis
- 21 Peripheral Chassis (Laptop or Notebook)
- 22 Storage Chassis
- 23 Rack Mount Chassis (Physical Server)
- 24 Sealed-Case PC
To see which device you are using, use the following query: wmic systemenclosure get chassistypes. Because I have the choice between 1, 3, 10 and 15 (for example) this should be Other, Desktop, Notebook and Space-Saving (Thin Client).
Let's use query-based Collections in ConfigMgr as much as possible!
