GarthMJ Posted April 4, 2015 Report post Posted April 4, 2015 This is not going to be supported. So why are you trying to do this? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gvlaarho Posted April 6, 2015 Report post Posted April 6, 2015 Hello Jones, Simply to have more clearly name than the company adapted naming convention and also to quickly replace the machine if needed with another host name (Strict company policy that prohibits usage twice a same host name) Is it possible to explain me technically why is it not supported ? SCCM see correctly the Alias but do nothing SPN, Kerberos ? .... Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GarthMJ Posted April 6, 2015 Report post Posted April 6, 2015 The simple answer is WMI and how CM12 queries it. if you want more than that you will need to contact your TAM and get them to give you and official support statement. But IMO why do you care if you need to replace a DP and it has a new name? Client will get the new name form the MP and therefore will know about the new DP within an hour so.... 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gvlaarho Posted April 7, 2015 Report post Posted April 7, 2015 Yes of course, wmi It was just a company's desire. I have also explained them about new DP that can be ready up to 2 hours. Now all is ok Thanks Jones Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
