After actually dedicating some time to it instead of just messing about with it for five minutes here and there, we finally got it working.įor those of you that know MDT, we used this with a mixture of Gather and Set Task Sequence Variable. So, we decided that we really needed to spend some time on this and get it working once and for all. Using this method, all our Dell machines were reporting the %SERIALNUM% as blank, so instead of: Most of our machines (99%) are Dell’s and we wanted to use the 7 digit asset tag with a 3 letter prefix but things like the WSNAME only seemed to work with our HP’s using the %SERIALNUM% variable. What we wanted was a three letter prefix with the serial/tag number of our machines. Reading various forums and blogs, many people have said to use WSNAME and many others saying use scripts, all of which never seemed to quite work for us. We have been looking into getting our OSD process to automatically change the computer name to what we want it to be for a while now but never really had much luck with it.
