So we found a potentially weird bug in our JSS. We had an extension attribute that gathered the host name of a system (instead of the standard Computer Name field). There was then a Smart Group scoped to that EA to automatically perform some tasks.
Fast forward a year, and the host name EA gets deleted in a cleanup of old Extension Attributes. Our bad that we missed it. But instead of the Smart Group that used to depend on the EA simply returning zero systems instead of the dozen it used to return, it starts including extra random systems that should not never have been in the group, and executing policies on those systems.
Anyone else run into something like this?
Granted it was a problem of our own creation, but I would expect the Smart Group to be able to fail gracefully.
