No for loop Runs a baseline or action in sequence

Hello, I am trying to achieve a sort of loop for an action or baseline but I cannot find the right logic for it.
Scenario:
A Group with 100 Servers.
B. An operator creates a software distribution task where the group is relevant.
C. the Operators run the task against the group…

What I need to do is to make sure that of that group only 10 servers are done at the time…

As the task is running during weekends and nights, there will be no one checking the task.

I was thinking to run a fixlet that adds a property to the 10 first, so it becomes relevant, but how do get the next ten into “doing” position for the next batch?

Any ideas will be really appreciated.

You could possibly create 10 tasks that have relevance for only 10 servers, then the action of the task would set the custom property that you are going to key off for the baseline.

It then maybe possible to have a baseline start with the first task to tag the first group of servers then a SW distribution task, then the task to set the custom property on the next group of servers then the SW distribution task again and so on.

I have never tested this approach.

Hello Baynes and thank you for the help, I was hoping for a more efficient way to do it, but it seems that is the only way…:frowning:

Thanks a lot
