SCCM PCs discovery

[Datafast]

Is it here?

you can review the discovery logs listed in my earlier blog to determine which discovery method is finding those computers. Open them in CMTrace and do some digging. Also, this depends on how you've configured your discovery methods,

you can test this by manually deleting some MININT-xxxxxx records in SCCM, then triggering one discovery method by right clicking it and choose Run full discovery now..., then reviewing the logs, and verifying if they populate again in SCCM, below is an example of that...

Following my tests I have noticed an improvement in the automatic maintenance of the platform by setting the "delete" suggested.

*** Delete Orphaned Client Deployment State Records

I can see several PCs with no client installed present in the list.

Is there a way to delete (clean) also all this devices without the agent installed? 

I couldn't find a way to do it.
