Secondary sites...

Question

I'm testing SCCM and have set up a secondary site off of my main site. How do I tell if it is working properly? From what I can tell, none of my clients are using it as their management point even though I set up the boundary under site settings and even told SCCM that it is a "protected site system" and setup the boundary there (under site systems) (which will lead to another question in a few). When I go to a client though, it shows that the site code is SMS:COR (my primary site) and the management point is my primary site server.

 

When I try to have SCCM install the client on a computer that should belong to the secondary site, nothing happens. The only way I can get the client to install is to uncheck the box for "Include only clients in this site's boundaries". How would I push out the client to computers in my secondary sites?

I have question about the clientlocation.log file on a client within the ip range boundary of a secondary site. Everything seems to be working just fine with the client, however I'm a bit concerned about what I see in the clientlocation.log file. Here are the facts. Names have been changed to protect the innocent. :-) You will notice that the "current management point" alternates between the primary and secondary site server. This has been going on ever since the client was installed. The same loop repeats itself every few minutes.

 

Primary Site Server Name: sccmpri

Secondary Site Server Name: sccmsec

I searched the Internet for sample clientlocation.log files but came up with bupkus. Does this look normal, or do I have a problem?

 

Any feedback would be appreciated!
