Maintenance Target Scope "Exclude" filter

[MrBock]

When creating maintenance schedules, the option to exclude some devices based on a tag or another Azure Group (if Target Type was an Azure Group).

We frequently want to schedule a maintenance for “all active employees” but then some users might need to be excluded. This means we either have to make a static Azure Group, or create a custom filter script - which is a bit of a bother.

Being able to exclude certain devices when there are “exceptions” would be preferable over having to create and maintain group memberships.

YES!
The ability to use exclusion in Deployments, as well as schedules ETC. would be awesome!

This can actually be done, albeit in a roundabout kind of way. You can make an “Exclude” tag, and then create a filter script like so:

Get-ImmyComputer -IncludeTags | ? {$_.Name -NotContains "Exclude"}

Then tag the devices you want to exclude, and this filter script will target all the devices that don’t have that tag.

BRILLIANT!
