Power Saving "Exclusion" Collection

Question

Hello. I've implemented power saving settings on a query based collection which dynamically updates itself so right now there are over 600 PC's within it. I'm starting to get calls from users who want to be excluded from the plan for one reason or another.
Right now I'm modifying the query to explicitly exclude the PC name (System Resource Name not equal to "computer name") but I see this as a very tedious method. Can I create a direct membership collection, call it something like "Power Saving Exclusions", set
the power saving feature to "Never apply power management", and manually add PC names there? In effect I'll have the same PC in both collections. Which collection will take precedence? Is there a better way to go about this? Thanks!

Answer 1

I think I answered my own question. Reading theough the Admin Guide on Power Saving I came across the Exclusion section. It reads:
In Configuration Manager 2007 R3, you can prevent collections of computers from receiving power management settings. For example, you might want to exclude a collection of servers from receiving any power plans. If a computer is a member of any collection
that is excluded from power management settings, it does not apply power management settings even if it is a member of another collection that applies power management settings.
Sorry for jumping the gun!
