fluxxx Posted July 4, 2013 Report post Posted July 4, 2013 I have a problem at work where my new sccm 2012 server discovered way to many users. I had enabled the Active Directory Forest discovery and I thought it was only supposed to discover the forest and possibly add those as boundaries, but now I have 44.000 users from other locations I do not want in the DB. Is there a quick way to clean the DB for these users? The server is not in prod, but don't want to start over for I've already created some tasks and packages. I have since then setup the user discovery from the right ou, but is it safe to just select all -> delete? tried with a few, but its an extremely slow process. I'm going on vacation soon, so if that's what it takes, I can live with it And it's safe to delete users? It's only the users from the sccm db. It will never touch AD? Edit: All the objects that I want to delete has the Agent Name: "SMS_AD_SECURITY_GROUP_DISCOVERY_AGENT" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jorgen Nilsson Posted July 4, 2013 Report post Posted July 4, 2013 Hi, The users are more than liklely added by the Group Discovery, how did you configure it? Yes you can delete them from the SCCM console, they will not be deleted in AD. Regards,Jörgen Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
fluxxx Posted July 5, 2013 Report post Posted July 5, 2013 Maybe, but I specified the right OU in the group discovery. Then I'll just delete them and run a new discovery to get it right. Thanks for the answer Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
fluxxx Posted July 5, 2013 Report post Posted July 5, 2013 Deleting all users takes time. But I have time so all is good Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
