Filtering Images for User-Initiated Deployment
1. Is there a way to filter the shown Images for User-Initiated Deployment via Mac adress or group?
2. Is there a way to let a deployment task run every minute? Or everytime the machine is getting attached to the network?
Thanks for all answers!

I had a feeling, but good to have verified.
For #1 - you should be able to help alleviate the user choices by using well worded folders and backup file names to direct people to the correct images.
For #2 - I just don't see it being an option. There's too much liklihood that if you had such an automated process, users would potentially have the opportunity to continually wipe and load their system (unintentionally). It could technically work (if it was supported) as long as the deployment network was completley segregated from the primary network, but if you're having users connect to the network to restore their own systems from remote, I'm assuming they'd be on the same network where the images are located as well so that wouldn't work very well since they would reinstall every time they rebooted (or anytime somone PXE-booted).

Yeah we have a very special envoirment where we use Snap Deploy, there is nearly zero risk that people are accidently wiping their data. The only solution i found was that i now do the hourly deployment for every image 12 times every hour so that you need to wait about 5 minutes till a deployment starts. Not a great solution but the only possible at the moment.
