Dear all,
we are currently managing our Windows 7 clients with SCCM 2012. Our various servers are not yet managed via SCCM, the client is not installed on these systems and they are outside the boundaries.
Now we would like to manage our servers as well, but we only want to use inventory, for license management. The infrastructure guys do NOT want any packages, applications, updates or configuration changes deployed to the machines, so we need to limit the SCCM client to just a few functions (like collecting hardware and software data).
My idea is to somehow separate the servers from the other machines, i.e. by putting them in a specific boundary, and then deploy specific client settings to them, but I don't know if this will work.
So, to help me get started on this issue, can anybody give me some advice on where to begin? Does anybody already do something like this? The scenario does not seem to be too far fetched, and maybe you could give me some hints on how you accomplished it and what I should take into consideration.
Any help is appreciated, many thanks in advance
Lars Bremer
