How to handle many configurations for inital setup

How to handle many configurations for inital setup

Hi @ all,

we use DTC very intensively for client configuration, especially for the initial setup of a new windows client.

Until now we have over 15 configs that need to be executed on new clients.
These configs are already "collections" which take several steps.
Other execute batch files, edit registry entries or use the user management feature von DTC.

Unfortunately I cannot make one big config because for excample I cannot run several scripts from one config (there is no "add more scripts").

Even if I had one big config I think I would lose track about whit setting is made by which change....

I would need:
  1. The ability to run several batch scripts from one configuration or from one collection.
  2. To edit the sequence in collections, so I can control which actions take place.
  3. I also need to be able to run batch scripts at the beginning and at the end of Collections. 
  4. I would like to "group" my configurations by individual aspects I can set myself.

Do you have some ideas to share with me on how to achieve this or are some of these features already planned for future releases?
