Hi,
There is an option to assign users or users group to a plan, but recently customer made a case that they are more device-centric then user-centric when it comes to assigning new devices to employees. They asked if it’s possible to assign devices to plans based on hostnames rather then users/owners. I would really want to help here, but I’m not aware of such option. Please let me know if it’s possible or not.
Hi
Yes it might be possible using smart client groups - I know you could assign a storage policy (which should be akin to a plan in the Java UI) in client groups and have a rule on the group to discover by hostname?
Can’t check the docs right now as it is having some issues but I think that would be the way.
Hi
Didn’t thought to crunch it from that side, but that might be useful.
I also found something in docs which can be used during silent install, there is an installer parameter /plan <plan_name> which should assign device to a desired plan, but as docs state it won’t assign any owner, so it’s possible we would need to run an REST API request later to do that.
I will discuss this with customer and see what would be the best option for them.
Thanks!
