I'm having some consistency issues with the Active Directory system discovery. I have one domain that populates the "System OU Name" differently than the rest of the domains. I have looked at the domain controllers and the service accounts and I'm not seeing anything that would cause the property to be populated differently. There are only 2 obvious differences between the domains. The one that isn't working like the others has the domain functional level as Windows Server 2012 and isn't trusted by the domain that the primary site is joined to. I have 3 domains setup for Active Directory system discovery. Discovery settings are all setup the same, Search path LDAP://OU=Desktop,DC=My,DC=DOMAIN. Each domain has a different service account used for the discovery. Systems are found in all the domains but the "System OU Name" property is different in the domain with the functional level of Windows Server 2012. This is what the "System OU Name" property looks like when discovered from a domain with the functional level of Windows Server 2003, as expected. This is what the "System OU Name" property looks like when discovered from a domain with the functional level of Windows Server 2012. Environment Information SCCM Version: SCCM 2012 R2 SP1 CU2 Correct domains: Domain functional level: Windows Server 2003 Forest functional level: Windows Server 2003 Primary Site is joined to this domain AD Schema extended SCCM servers published Incorrect Domains Domain functional level: Windows Server 2012 Fores functional level: Windows Server 2012 This is not a trusted domain AD Schema extended SCCM servers published Any help would be appreciated.

We are having a major problem with our thin clients in the organization. We recently found out that a lot of them have the SCCM client installed and are now installing updates and software and running the hard drives out of space. In Active Directory System Discovery, I have the Thin Clients in a blocked OU and it's set to Excluded. When I delete these from SCCM, they are rediscovered. What am I missing here?

Hi! I ran a AD System Discovery when I first set up SCCM 2012, and all the computer accounts in AD has been listed in the 'All Systems' collection as intended. The only issue here is, almost 2000 of these computer objects are objects that hasn't been active or been in contact with a Domain Controller for the last 180 days. Yesterday, I started a cleaning process in AD, so the old computer objects in AD has now been disabled. Is there any possibility for me to clean the 'All Computers' collection and get rid of the disabled computer objects? Any help is highly appreciated :-) Brgds. Stian M.
