I thought AGPM was going to move to Windows Server so it could still be used to manage Windows Servers??? No one is going to be enrolling Windows Servers in to intune lol.

    Mark Szili​ Two things:

    1. Correct, no one can enroll Servers into Intune as Intune does not manage servers.
    2. We have no plans to move AGPM into Windows Server to manage GPO.

    Recommendation is to move your Server management off of on-prem to Azure Arc. More info here: Azure Arc-enabled servers | Microsoft Learn

      That is really a terrible replacement, AGPM and Intune has a nice GUI and tree structure for policy management, and now Microsoft want Windows Server admins to use Azure and JSON files, does not even look like Azure Policy will take an ADMX file. Even Intune can ingest ADMX and give us a GUI for policy settings. 
      Guess I'm lucky I stuck to Desktop and did not pivot to Server admin.
