Is there any way to create a group by boot volume name? In the inventory details it displays the name, but I don't see where I can add it for a smart group.

    Sounds like a good candidate for a dummy package.
    #!/bin/bash

    # get the device id of your boot volume

    bootdevid=bless --getBoot

    # If the boot volume's device id matches up with the volume name you're
    # looking for, call the custom-triggered policy.

    if [ `diskutil list| grep "${bootdevid:5}"| grep -c
    "theBootVolumeYoureLookingFor"` -ne 0 ] then jamf policy -action theCustomTrigger
    fi
