computer accounts can be associated with computers in a selected computer group.

cannot access features). Right-click and select the Configure command. The
Computer Configuration Properties dialog appears.
2. Enter names and configuration settings for each new computer account using the
Computer Configuration screens. See Computer configuration properties on
page 101.
3. (Optional) Click the Microsoft Networking category and click Define Range.
a. In the Fixed text field, enter a base computer name. Example: Sales.
b. In the Range start field, enter a numeral or letter to add to the Fixed Text
name. This creates a unique name for a group of computers starting with the
specified character. The range of numerals and letters is assigned to the
computer name. Example: Enter 3.
c. Select Append to add the range of numerals after the computer name. Clear
the check box to add names before the computer name.
In the above example, the Result field displays computer names beginning
with Sales3 and ending with Sales12.

Computers group) with the multiple computer accounts.

Importing new computers from a text file
You can import computer configuration data using delimited text files (.TXT, .CSV, or

This file contains all configuration data for a new computer, including all settings in the
Computer Properties of a selected computer. See
Computer properties on page 119.

A dialog appears, letting you select import files. These files can have .XML, .TXT,
.CSV, or .IMP extensions.
2. Select the import file. Click Open .
If a correctly formatted computer import file is selected, a message appears,
informing you that the computer import is complete and identifying the number of
computers added. Click
OK .
New computers appear as pre-configured computer accounts in the Computers
pane of the console (as single computers or in groups), and any jobs imported from
the import file are listed in the
Jobs pane.
Note
Jobs can be added to the import file. They can be created and associated with the
new computers.
If the computer import file is incorrectly formatted, a warning appears, stating that
the computer import file is incorrect.
