    Hello,

    Can Advanced Group Policy Management (AGPM) control/manage WMI filters a GPO uses?  In other words, is/can a WMI filter be brought under AGPM control for 'Change Management' in the same way a GPO is brought under AGPM control for 'Change Management'?  Thanks in advance.

    Thanks for your help! SdeDot

    Exrapul: I've been through that general information before and it doesnt provide me with the specific answer to my question.

    Hi,

    Advanced Group Policy Management (AGPM) allows organisation to implement change control and versioning to their Active Directory Group Policies. This allows multiple people to edit Group Policy Object (GPO) with their changes going live the instant the change is made. Any changes to a GPO needs to be check-in, deployed then approved before ever making it to production.

    So AGPM is a tool let you to manage GPO, but not manage how to deploy GPO.

    You still deploy GPO in Group Policy Management Console, you can still configure WMI filters at there like before.

    For more information please refer to following MS articles:

    I found out from my own research AGPM does not manage WMI filters.

    Thanks for your help! SdeDot
