Need help with Task sequence Varialble ....Thanks !
Hello and thank you for reading my thread. I have a OSD environement that works fine under Windows XP. I have basics Wim files packaged that calls tasks sequences. All of this works works fine. What I want to do is create groups within my OSD task sequence. I created Collection without any advertisements witch I added the Collection Variables. I had the computer to the collection in order for the computer to get a variable assign to it. So that when a specific task sequence is call, I make a IF statement to verify if the software is installed. The problem is that it dosen't work at all, I feel im so close to the solution ... heres the problem in my smsts.log Evaluating a variable condition expression TSManager 12/30/2010 3:43:41 PM 1916 (0x077C) Variable = VarSS TSManager 12/30/2010 3:43:41 PM 1916 (0x077C) Value = 2 TSManager 12/30/2010 3:43:41 PM 1916 (0x077C) Operator = equals TSManager 12/30/2010 3:43:41 PM 1916 (0x077C) Expand a string: equals TSManager 12/30/2010 3:43:41 PM 1916 (0x077C) Expand a string: VarSS TSManager 12/30/2010 3:43:41 PM 1916 (0x077C) Expand a string: 2 TSManager 12/30/2010 3:43:41 PM 1916 (0x077C) The variable condition expression is evaluated to be FALSE TSManager 12/30/2010 3:43:41 PM 1916 (0x077C) The AND expression is evaluated to be FALSE TSManager 12/30/2010 3:43:41 PM 1916 (0x077C) My computer Name is in the right collection witch has the variable VarSS set to "2" and my task sequence is set to run when task sequence Variable VarSS = "2" so why is not getting the package installed .. any help or tips would be welcome. Also, is there a way to see the value of my variable while the OSD process is taking place ? for troubleshooting ? Again thank you for reading my thread. Gui

Best way is to query them into a logfile and check which values the variables have. Here's a script to dump all the variables into a logfile http://blogs.technet.com/b/mniehaus/archive/2010/04/26/dumping-task-sequence-variables.aspx
