Hey folks, we want to group our Mac devices based on the OS version. To be clear, we have a requirement where we need to create a grp of post macOS 11 devices and another grp of pre macOS 11 devices. I know there is a dynamic grouping feature in Hexnode but I’m confused how to achieve this. Any help would be appreciated…

You can use the condition filters in dynamic group configuration page for this. There is an option called ‘operating system’ which you can use to specify the device details.

Hey, @pauel. Thank you for reaching out to us.
Yes, you’re right! We do have the Dynamic Device Grouping feature that you can easily configure to accomplish your requirement.
To create a dynamic group of all the macOS devices with versions 11 and newer:
- Navigate to the Manage tab > Device Groups > New Dynamic Group.
- Choose the Condition filter: Device Info > Platform > Is > macOS
- Now, click on the + sign to add another Condition filter.
- Use the AND logical operator.
- Choose the second Condition filter: Operating System > OS Version > Does not contain > 10
- Enter an appropriate Group Name & Description for the device group.
- Click Save Group.
To create a dynamic group of all the macOS devices with versions lower than 11:
- Navigate to the Manage tab > Device Groups > New Dynamic Group.
- Choose the Condition filter: Device Info > Platform > Is > macOS
- Now, click on the + sign to add another Condition filter.
- Use the AND logical operator.
- Choose the second Condition filter: Operating System > OS Version > Contains > 10
- Enter an appropriate Group Name & Description for the device group.
- Click Save Group.
Hope this helped! Let us know if you’ve any more queries.
Cheers!
