Error: Missing dependencies and min_os_version

Hello,
I have a question about installation errors on the WAPT console.

WAPT 2.6.1.17472.

I'm putting my server packages at the Organizational Unit level to avoid forgetting any.
Out of hundreds of servers... there are a few old Windows 2012 machines, unfortunately still in production.

To prevent some packages from being used by the 2012 machines because they're incompatible, I set a minimum OS:
min_os_version: 10.

Is it normal that I still see the Windows 2012 servers with this kind of error?
EWaptUnavailablePackage: Missing dependencies: tis-sysmon.
Normally, even if they have the package, it shouldn't do anything, right?

Enterprise license
: approximately 1200 PCs,
approximately 100 servers

Hi Jonathan,

package dependency calculations are generally based on the package name without filtering on capabilities. This is the expected behavior because the WAPT agent doesn't know if it's a deliberate choice by the administrator or not.

For OU packages or AD Profile packages, these are "implicit" packages linked to the machine's state and not explicit dependencies. So you can impose restrictions on capabilities and it won't cause the problem you're experiencing.

Alternatively, you can create an empty group package with the appropriate capability for the 2012 machines, and that way they'll be happy.

Regards,

Denis
