Lets say you have a application you only want to install on laptops, like f.ex. VPN or battery SW. Well now how do you get around this??
I use the MDT variable IsLaptop as an option on my Task Sequence step.
1. add the MDT Gather step somewhere after the image has been deployed
2. On the Install Software step you only want to install on Laptops, you add the “Option-Task Sequence Variable” IsLaptop equals TRUE
This will make sure this step is only run is the Chassi type is LAPTOP.
You can of cause do the same for DESKTOP – IsDesktop=TRUE and SERVER – IsServer=TRUE
hello
I’m using system center configmgr2007 to deploy systems operated within the company where I work.
I need to know how to perform step “apply windows settings” (to apply the product key of the operating system) in the task sequence based on pc desktop or laptop.
I tried in all ways but I did not succeed.
This is because in our company we have some notebooks that are recognized by system center as your desktop
help me please.
Great tip but how do I get the MDT option to show up under the add menu in my task sequence editor? We currently run SCCM 2007 for production use but have Configman 2012 up and running in a quasi-prod environment. Great site and thanks in advance!!
Link exchange is nothing else except it is only placing
the other person’s blog link on your page at proper place and
other person will also do siimilar ffor you.

If you don’t want MDT (or you simply don’t have it) you could use also other two (probably there are other ways) to work around this:
Or with the modelname and a WMIC query:
SELECT * FROM Win32_ComputerSystem WHERE Model Like “%modelname%”
But here you have to tell every model you have… but let’s say you don’t want to search every modelname… difference between laptop&workstation … Battery!
so WMIC query:
Select * from Win32_Battery where Batterystatus > 0
Coretech is always the best btw.
