Simulation of RSoP on specific WMI filter

MigrationDeletedUser

GPA does not support simulation of RSoP report on a specific WMI filter. It should reflect/copy the RSoP from MS GPMC and allow selection of specific filters

Search results should offer Properties action

MigrationDeletedUser

WHen the search results are returned, there is no way to find the returned AD GPOs without running Saving a report, opening the report and viewing the links. If the Rep and AD search results offered the Properties option, you would be able to see the…

Need the option to delete all instance of a GPO from the Repository

MigrationDeletedUser

It is possible to have several categories contain the same OU when you either run an offline mirror and the GPO is linked to multiple OUs, or during custom category configuration. However, if you are cleaning up GPOs or Merging GPOs and no longer need…

Search results should show Category for Repository objects

MigrationDeletedUser

When you search for GPOs there is no easy way to tell where you can then find them in the Repository structure, nor in GP Explorer. The Search results should allow a Location column that reflects the Category information. This could assist greatly when…

Repository should support bulk actions

MigrationDeletedUser

There are several things that should allow a bulk select. With only having options to select 1 GPO at a time, reorganizing categories can take a bit of time. Considerable time could potentially be saved if the GPA Repository (and search results) allowed…

Changing of Block Inheritance should be audited by GPA

MigrationDeletedUser

Currently GPA does not log these activities in the GPA entries. As a change to this setting could affect multiple GPOs we should log this change in the GPA Server event log.

Block Inheritance Tasks performed in the GP Explorer node should be acknowledged in the Repository

MigrationDeletedUser

By default GPA knows the state of an OUs Block Inheritance setting based on the original import and/or sync Link Order. However, if someone wants to change that status they have to check out a GPO that is linked to that OU, in order to access the list…

GPA Domain Controller selection should be per user rather than per machine

MigrationDeletedUser

In GPA when you specify the Domain Controller to use, on the Repository or any other node, that Domain Controller selection is on a per machine basis. If you have multiple people logged into the same console and one switches domain controllers, it could…

GPO Link Scope should account for Deleted OUs

MigrationDeletedUser

Had a couple of cases where an OU was deleted from AD before anyone had a chance to clean up the GPO links. This left the entry behind on the object in the GPA repository. Since the OU no longer exists, it cannot be resynched to have its link updated…

MigrationDeletedUser

I have had couple of customer request where they wanted to allow specific groups of location specifc admins to change some GPO settings (desktop config, control panel etc) and then allow only a different specific group of Company wide admins to change…

Ability of managing multiple OS-dependent ADMX templates

MigrationDeletedUser

Currently, Win2012 ADMX has to be managed separately from Win2008R2 because there are 60 admx files with the same name, but the content is different i.e. Terminal-Server, Terminalserver-server, etc. When Central Store is updated with the newer Win2012…

Display the GPA console used for GPO export to AD

MigrationDeletedUser

For GPO repository notification, display the name of the GPA console under "Client:" instead of the GPA server (when using GPA export override account). This will help in troubleshooting of problem.

Event IDs for Group Policy Modifications

Jeff K

Would it be possible to create specific Event IDs for various GPO modifications, rather than use the same Event ID for any GPO Modification? Currently, all GPO modifications use the same Event ID, which can create a cumbersome process when reviewing for…

Recycle Bin for GPOs

Jeff K

It would be great to have a Recycle Bin for GPOs within the GP Repository. When you "delete" a GPO within the Repository, it would go inside the Recycle Bin and retain all the settings. This would provide GPA Admins the ability to restore a GPO if it…
