All Systems Group contains 1,600 machines but my query based collection only has 55?

Hi all,

 

We have enabled AD system discovery and have 1,600 machines in the All Systems group. Great start :-)

 

The issue I'm having is that in this group there's a split between workstations and laptops. Luckily the comapany has a good naming convention and all the workstations start with WSTN- and the laptops start with LPTP-. I've created a group with a query 'System name like WSTN-%' hoping to have a group only containing workstations. The problem is that this group only has 55 machines in it. The All System group has hundreds of machines starting with WSTN-.

 

Weird, as I'd either expect it not to work at all or contain the 400 hundred or so workstations. Just having 55 is a bit strange

 

any ideas?

 

Thanks!!

Try using the "System Resource".Name property. Also, try the "Computer System".Name property.
