It was part of the subscription and didn't require any other additional setup - so was nice in theory. Ah. Salt and Ansible can do similar things but would require some backend work. Salt has an agent, right? Yes, and Ansible can be setup in a Pull configuration so it can act like it has an Agent as well.

Which is just a layer on top of Powershell. The Active Directory Powershell module is still required. It's not required, or that module is included already in Windows 10 by default. Because I haven't had to install it on any machine I managed with Ansible. "win_domain_group_membership requires the ActiveDirectory PS module to be installed" https://github.com/ansible/ansible/blob/devel/lib/ansible/modules/windows/win_domain_group_membership.ps1 They have it in the documentation as well "This must be run on a host that has the ActiveDirectory powershell module installed." https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/modules/win_domain_group_module.html

@jt1001001 Thanks. If you are running from PDQ deploy, you won't see anything. But, if you are doing it from PS/ISE or similar, that would be a great help.

@notverypunny Yes I am. Citrix verified it is set correctly.

@jaredbusch said in PDQ Deploy: I quit using PDQ with any regularity when I found chocolatey. Same, but I only used it at the last job, now I just use a chocolate ps script that does all of it.

@Dashrender said in Deploying Veeam Endpoint Backup on Windows with PDQ Deploy: I'm not sure where else to mention this, but Chocolately would be another deployment method to consider. Yes, no native package, though. So we need to make one for it. That would be my personally preferred method, of course.

They use different install locations. Each maintains its own space and database. They don't interact at all.

@IRJ said: @ajstringham Yes Got it. Everything nowadays is. Not surprising really.
