Yeah honestly it will make your life easier, only problem is the enrollment piece unless you are using azure ad as the directory then you might get the automated enrollment. I get that you can have 5k win 10 devices and 100 servers and that might call for different management solutions. I'm really not trying argue - I'm genuinely curios about your perspective because I feel like there is some big difference between Win10 and Windows server that I am not seeing from a management perspective. They all have the same dependencies and they leverage the same windows features be it a server or a workstation. These applications aren't fundamentally different. My perspective is that I've got applications to run on servers and client workstations. Thanks u/jevans98-07 - I'm dealing with AWS thinking about pulling the BYOL trigger as well.Ĭould you elaborate on this statement: "You would never see a server based os on an endpoint (management solution)" - Why though? In your mind, what about a server based OS makes it fundamentally different? Most of the configuration management tools I've used previously (chef/puppet) do not make that distinction (although I have never used them to manage a windows 10 device). I have not found a satisfactory answer online. With the recent rebranding into Microsoft endpoint management, to me at least it seems like a great opportunity to consolidate the configuration management experience across all versions of windows without having to install SCCM on prem.Īnyways - these are just the ramblings of a lost Linux admin. Im curious as to why intune does not support windows server and why they don’t plan to in the future. I’ve used it to manage choco packages across my win10 fleet and that seems exactly like what I might want to do with windows server. I really enjoy the flexibility that intune provides. I have run across situations before where I want a powerful configuration management experience for windows server without having to install and manage SCCM. My particular situation is beside the point. So this presented a problem when I wanted to manage these endpoints with intune as it does not support windows server. Running winver clearly shows it’s a windows server 2016 machine and I have no access to the underlying infrastructure. I ran across a situation with a VDI provider that gave us “a windows 10 desktop experience powered by windows server 2016”. My question related to intune in the Microsoft endpoint manager. I am very new to windows endpoint management and this is my first experience with intune. I apologize in advance if this is a dumb question.
