Rename Computers through SCCM - Without Reimaging.
I have a couple hundred machines, that I now have reporting and are manageable, in SCCM. These machines are part of a merger and have the incorrect naming conventions. I do not want to reimage these machines. I just want to rename
them.
So I want to rename a couple hundred machines. Is this possible? Do I use a Task Sequence to do this?
I have read mutliple postings. So I think I can go into the Variables tab, on the client machines, create "OSDmachinename" entry, and add the value for the new computername.
I am not sure what to do next. If I use a Task Sequence, I know that the "Apply Windows Settings" sets the computername, but I am not sure if I can use this task, since I am not actually imaging a machine.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
