Creating Group Policy Objects (GPOs)

Users with the appropriate permission can propose the creation of a GPO that does not currently exist in the enterprise environment and have it placed within the Version Control system. If you have starter GPOs within your version control system, you can select one to use as a basis for a new GPO.

When you create a GPO as Workflow Disabled, you are creating it in the context of the user you are logged in as. This GPO sits immediately in the live environment.

When you create a GPO as Workflow Enabled, you create it in the context of the GPOADmin Service Account and this GPO sits awaiting deployment. Once deployed, it sits in the live environment.

Creating starter GPOs

Starter GPOs include a collection of Administrative Template policy settings in a single object. They are useful when you want to distribute a GPO with specific settings to other environments. When you create a new GPO from a starter GPO, it inherits all of the Administrative Template policy settings and values of the starter GPO.

There are 2 type of starter GPOs:

Creating WMI filters

Using Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) filters, you can control where GPOs are applied based on the attributes of a target computer.

The WMI filter associated with the GPO is processed on the target computer. The query, in the WMI filter that is linked to a GPO, is evaluated on the target computer.

For example, your filter may be “Select computers that have a processor speed higher than 2 GHz”. If the target computer meets the criteria, the GPO is applied. If not, the GPO is not applied.

Right-click and select New | WMI Filter.

To add an additional query to the filter, select New Query, and specify the Root Namespace and Query as described in Step 5.
8
Click Finish.

Creating scripts

Logon, logoff, Startup and Shutdown scripts contained in the SYSVOLS Scripts folder (and its subfolders) can be registered and will be detected by the Watcher Service and reported as non-compliant.

Users with the appropriate permission can propose the creation of a script that does not currently exist in the enterprise environment and have it placed within the Version Control system.
