PENDING Exclude Device Group from Installing Client

[ITGurl22]

Is there a way with SCCM 2103 to exclude a specific device group or individual computers from installing the SCCM client? I am testing a new UEM and I don't want my testing PCs to re-install the SCCM client if I uninstall it.

Can you tell us what method are you using to deploy the agents to devices ?.

Active Directory System Discovery. I see where to exclude OU containers, but the test machines I have are in multiple OUs.

You mean Push install. AD dis does NOT install the client, it only discovers the client.

Clients can only belong to one OU in AD, So you need to clarify this bit.

Clarification:
PC1 is in OU A
PC2, 3, and 4 are in OU B

However, I have production machines in OU A and B that are currently being managed by SCCM and still need the client. There seems to be a limitation of SCCM that I can only exclude an OU instead of individual devices.
