New MECM Build, Device Collections not showing devices
I just built a new MECM server and updated it to version 2509. I imported an older Device Collection script to make collections. The Windows Server 2012/2012R2 did find the 4 servers that I have but for 2019, 2022 and 2025, nothing is showing. Here are some queries that I have tried: select SMS_R_SYSTEM.ResourceID,SMS_R_SYSTEM.ResourceType,SMS_R_SYSTEM.Name,SMS_R_SYSTEM.SMSUniqueIdentifier,SMS_R_SYSTEM.ResourceDomainORWorkgroup,SMS_R_SYSTEM.Client from SMS_R_System inner join SMS_G_System_OPERATING_SYSTEM on SMS_G_System_OPERATING_SYSTEM.ResourceID = SMS_R_System.ResourceId where SMS_G_System_OPERATING_SYSTEM.Version = "10.0.20348" select SMS_R_SYSTEM.ResourceID,SMS_R_SYSTEM.ResourceType,SMS_R_SYSTEM.Name,SMS_R_SYSTEM.SMSUniqueIdentifier,SMS_R_SYSTEM.ResourceDomainORWorkgroup,SMS_R_SYSTEM.Client from SMS_R_System inner join SMS_G_System_OPERATING_SYSTEM on SMS_G_System_OPERATING_SYSTEM.ResourceID = SMS_R_System.ResourceId where SMS_R_System.OperatingSystemNameandVersion like "%Server 10%" and SMS_G_System_OPERATING_SYSTEM.BuildNumber = "20348" select SMS_R_SYSTEM.ResourceID,SMS_R_SYSTEM.ResourceType,SMS_R_SYSTEM.Name,SMS_R_SYSTEM.SMSUniqueIdentifier,SMS_R_SYSTEM.ResourceDomainORWorkgroup,SMS_R_SYSTEM.Client from SMS_R_System inner join SMS_G_System_OPERATING_SYSTEM on SMS_G_System_OPERATING_SYSTEM.ResourceID = SMS_R_System.ResourceId where SMS_G_System_OPERATING_SYSTEM.BuildNumber = "20348" I even tried one using the OS Name. The limiting Collection used is Servers | All which shows 97. I also changed it back to All Systems, but to no avail. All the boundries and boundry groups are set.Microsoft Defender for Endpoint Device group question
I know Defender in general is extra user friendly but for the Defender for endpoint to work properly, do I need to put all devices in a machine group and set a remediation level? All the training videos I have watched tells me I have to put the devices in a Device group in settings and set a remediation level. I didn't set it up and it still seems to quarantine unwanted software or malicious software. Can someone why the device group and remediation level are necessary?
