Arellia can integrate with Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager and pull in existing resource filters to be used for Arellia Policy targets.
Steps:
- Navigate to Configuration > Foreign Software Systems > User Credentials
- Select the Default User Credential and verify that those user credentials that have access to the System Center Configuration Manager
- If they don't, create a new credential that has access to the SCCM Server
- Navigate to Foreign Software Systems > Foreign Software System Types > System Center Configuration Manager
- Select New > System Center Configuration Manager Instance
- Name the System Center Configuration Manager and provide the FQDN of the SCCM server and the site name and click OK
- Navigate to Resources > Resource Filters (blue navigation bar in the bottom left)
- Right-click System Center Configuration Manager and select New > SCCM Collection
- Set the Name and the SCCM Instance and click OK
- With the SCCM Instance set you can then click on the link next to SCCM collection and select the collection to use in this Resource Target
- After the collection is set, save the new resource target
- Then right-click the collection on the left-hand side and select Synchronize Collection
- This will force the collection to update immediately (this will happen automatically on the server-based collection update schedule, usually every 15 minutes)
- The collection will then be an exact replica of the computers targeted by the SCCM Device Collection and can be used in Arellia Policy Targeting
