These actions are taken on a Group. Visit a group.
On the right side you'll see the Systems section. This section allows you to pair a new system(or many new systems) into the group and also provides a button for each bulk action.
...
Once you click submit, the new systems will be created and configured. The old systems in Otto remain the same except their Otto Name is appended with "(Old)" to make it easy to identify a machine that's been replaced.
System Package and Configuration Selections
This allows you to add or remove packages or configurations from multiple systems at once. First you're prompted to select the systems you wish to configure:
And next you can Add or Remove a package/configuration from those systems:
When you click Update Package/Configuration Selections, Otto adds or removes the package/configuration from each of the selected systems.
Transfer Systems
This allows you to move multiple machines to a new group at once. It also automatically prestages the systems in their new group. If a Successor Group is set on the originating group, that group is already selected as the destination.
...
Click Transfer Systems at the bottom and confirm and then allow Otto a few minutes to prestage the machines and then you're all set to initiate the task sequence on the systems.
Prestage Systems
This allows you prestage systems in bulk. Select some or all systems.
Delete Systems
When deleting Windows systems, you need to decide if you want to merely clear the record from Otto, or if you want to retire the system from service:
As the dialog explains, deleting systems from Active Directory, MDT, and SCCM will immediately take effect, rendering the system inaccessible in the field. Make sure you understand your options before using this feature.
IMPORTANT NOTE: In Otto, multiple different systems (whose unique identifier is serial number) may have the same Name. The Name is used for the active directory account. Whichever system was most recently prestaged will take over the name AND the trust relationship in Active Directory. Similarly, when deleting a system in Active Directory, it's deleted by Name, which could affect more than one system if multiple systems share the same name.
