I currently have multiple child domains in my forest. We are in the process of planning a collapse of a few of the child domains to fall under one. To better explain we have 7 child domains, and we would like to collapse 3 of them into one of the other ones, so that woul leave 4 child domains. The three child domains, each have their own SCCM Primary site installations, so part of what i need to do is migrate the clients over to the rolled up child domain. I've added the new boundaries, and system discovery ldap but i can't see any of my test systems yet. I'm sure i'm missing something obvious.

Sounds like you have overlapping boundaries, as you left the boundary active on the old siteserver, right? You would then have to assign the clients to the new site manually.Miguel Rodriguez

Boundaries have nothing to do with discovery, so that's not the cause. See adsysdis.log if the siteserver is able to resolve the names to an IP address (as this is a prerequisite for creating a DDR). I suppose you already updated the collection membership and refreshed the console? Torsten Meringer | http://www.mssccmfaq.de

I excluded my test systems from the soon to be retired child domain, and added them to the rolled up domain.

I did modify the the collection membership and refreshed. I'll take a look at that log though.

DDRs were created, so i went back and checked my All Systems collection, and the systems from the othe child domain are there. So the error appears to be in my collection for just that child system is the problem. I have created it the same way that i did for my other domain identified collection. System resource - OU Name = child domain test ou, i also added another for System resource - ad domain name = child domain. These were done as seperate queries. Nothing shows up in that collection.

Update the 'all systems' collection and refresh the console. Does the computer show up then? "System resource - OU Name" => You have to use "AD system GROUP discovery" in order to get OU information.Torsten Meringer | http://www.mssccmfaq.de

I was clicking through my discovery methods and noticed the Network Discovery had a domains tab. This originally has the rollup domain as a member. Maybe i need to add the child domain as well? Also, should it be the fqdn or just the first section. For example rollup.domain.com vs just having rollup? i only ask because it seems to have a character limit of 15.

yes the all systems is updated. and yes i did the ad sys group discovery.

There's no need for network discovery when AD System Discovery is active, unless you want to discover workgroup clients or routers...Miguel Rodriguez
