# Assign applications using roles in MDT
|
|
|
|
This article will show you how to add applications to a role in the MDT database and then assign that role to a computer. For the purposes of this article, the application we're adding is Adobe Reader XI. In addition to using computer-specific entries in the database, you can use roles in MDT to group settings together.
|
|
|
|
## <a href="" id="sec01"></a>Create and assign a role entry in the database
|
|
|
|
1. On MDT01, using Deployment Workbench, in the MDT Production deployment share, expand **Advanced Configuration** and then expand **Database**.
|
|
2. In the **Database** node, right-click **Role**, select **New**, and create a role entry with the following settings:
|
|
1. Role name: Standard PC
|
|
2. Applications / Lite Touch Applications:
|
|
3. Install - Adobe Reader XI - x86
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
## <a href="" id="sec02"></a>Associate the role with a computer in the database
|
|
|
|
After creating the role, you can associate it with one or more computer entries.
|
|
1. Using Deployment Workbench, expand **MDT Production**, expand **Advanced Configuration**, expand **Database**, and select **Computers**.
|
|
2. In the **Computers** node, double-click the **PC00075** entry, and add the following setting:
|
|
- Roles: Standard PC
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
## <a href="" id="sec03"></a>Verify database access in the MDT simulation environment
|
|
|
|
When the database is populated, you can use the MDT simulation environment to simulate a deployment. The applications aren't installed, but you can see which applications would be installed if you did a full deployment of the computer.
|
|
1. On PC0001, log on as **CONTOSO\\MDT\_BA**.
|
|
2. Modify the C:\\MDT\\CustomSettings.ini file to look like below:
|
|
|
|
```
