Abstract
A computer-implemented method for configuring computing systems may include (1) detecting an event associated with a client device that potentially impacts a group to which the client device is assigned and, in response to detecting the event, (2) discovering at least one attribute of the client device that has the potential to impact the client device's group assignment, (3) identifying at least one rule that defines conditions for assigning client devices to groups, (4) determining, by applying the rule to the discovered attribute of the client device, that the client device's group assignment should be modified, and (5) modifying, in response to determining that the client device's group assignment should be modified, the client device's group assignment based on the discovered attribute of the client device. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
