Remove the direct assignment of the A3 to ensure only inherited licenses show. Then force licensing reprocessing on both groups should do it

Smart Notebook - Moving away / Bulk Conversion
snagrat replied to Alastairb25's topic in Educational Software
But it’s not free. Just because you can use the key on as many activations as you want doesn’t make it free. That’s how SMART got into charging for their software as everyone was asking the “free” version and no longer buying their expensive hardware. Not that I am defending SMART, but you are acting against Promethean’s T&Cs but using it on non-Promethan hardware (although sounds like you aren’t but your advice says differently) -
Smart Notebook - Moving away / Bulk Conversion

Take it you have Promethean panels in all rooms? -
You can assign to same group. As it’s an upgrade license there will be no clashing products.
-
If it is just A5 Security, and not the full A5 license, then yes you assign as well as. It is the full A5 then you would assign instead of

You have the names from the cleanup tool, so no need to identify the SDS ones in Powershell as such. Create a PS code per line in excel and copy down.

Action1 - RMM tool recommendation
snagrat replied to nikaso's topic in Network and Classroom Management
Didn’t someone post Action1 pricing on here the other day? But now removed? I’m always interested in new solutions but the 100 client limit for the free version is a limitation. -

Action1 with the response: Regarding the post by Gur Talpaz, Action1 disagrees and feels it must now do so publicly. Otherwise, Action1 has no public comment at present while our lawyers are in discussions. -
You can add an external IP to the VM (additonal cost) and then rdp to it. But if you Site-to-Site VPN then you would just connect via internal IP. Default Azure firewall would block external RDP, but internal would be open.

A key is to start basic. You can resize easily enough if you need more compute. But rarely would you go smaller. You need nowhere near as much RAM or CPU that you do on your own hardware. 4GB and 2vCPU would suffice for what you want it for.

Well I work for two trusts so different answers Trust 1 - we have subscription from Stone which we just get billed monthly. We load one large PO of an estimated amount and the monthly invoice eats into it until empty. Trust 2 - We pay on charge card. Just submit it as an expense. Monthly is better for us now as we constantly change services we use in Azure.
-
Also check your firewall can VPN to Azure. Some ISPs will charge extra for this.
-
I do this. Used to have a VM and VPN for about £50 a month which did AD and Salamander, but then Salamander needed more RAM so I split it out. Plus we run more in the cloud now. You could easily do what you are planning for £75 a month
-
What was the fix for the computer name bit? This script won’t rename PCs? Just add new computers to AD as a blank object
-
Are you running as a domain admin? And running powershell as Administrator?
-
That looks ok then. Is the directory PS is running from contain the csv file? Typing .\RenamePC.csv would suggest it is. Tbh I’ve never done it this way. I would have a line specifically stating the csv path like: $csv = Import-csv -Path c:\filepath\filename.csv Then lose the whole “read-prompt” bit
-
Is the header on the CSV column called “computer”? That is what $_.computer is looking for
-
Is the schedule enabled. There is a powershell to enable this.
-
Do they see it even if the Team isn’t activated by the Teacher? We don’t activate by default and the Teacher must when ready

MAT Site Connectivity Options
snagrat replied to ITGURU's topic in Internet Related/Filtering/Firewall
We use Schools Broadband for this. Do love their hosted Fortigate solution -
I believe powershell is needed for that: Remove-MgUserPhoto -UserId

Teams enabled SharePoint Library - Add to OneDrive/Explorer
snagrat replied to Alis_Klar's topic in Cloud Services
Wasn’t aware there is a way except from the sync method or by using a third party product/script. You can do it via GPO but it still uses sync, as far as I am aware -
Again, ISP should provide the router and SFP module. You would then use the correct copper or fibre connection into your switch

M365 users MFAshowing as disabled incorrectly
snagrat replied to Alis_Klar's topic in Cloud Services
If conditional access is forcing MFA then the window you are looking at doesn’t apply. Always been like that.
