Discovery Issues, I think
I'm having many issues, and I bet they are all related. The first issue I noticed was when I went to add a PC to a collection, direct membership, it wouldn't show up in the collection. I refreshed and updated the collection, and nothing. I pulled the PC from the all systems collection that it was in. It's not obsolete and approved. I figured it was just that PC, and it was hosed, needed redone to begin with so I took a Boot disc and did it that way. When it got redone, it still didn't connect back up to SCCM, it's fine in AD. SO I ran a repair on the CCM client, and not it's all installed, but nothing is enabled and there are only 2 actions. The automatic site code discovery is sucessful on the PC. Trying to redo another PC and running into the same thing. Not sure what to do, can't find anything in log files thats helpful. Running SCCM R2 SP2.

The Management Point looks fine. If an object exist in the database (All Systems), then it should also show up in any other collection that matches the correct criteria. Rebuilding the machine should not be needed. At this point do you have the computer in the database? If yes, create a direct membership rule. Select System Resource and name. Instead of typing a name, just type % and click next until you get to list of all names found in the database.Kent Agerlund | My blogs: http://blog.coretech.dk/author/kea/ and http://scug.dk/ | Twitter @Agerlund | Linkedin: /kentagerlund

I reimaged it to put it on Windows 7. Right now it's in AD, but not the all systems collection. I tried a repair of the CCM client, it looked like it was fine, but the components are listed as installed and there are only 2 actions. Site Code discovery is fine as well. I did have a very strange issue when I got done imaging it. The computer was on the domain, you could log onto it, but it wasn't in AD. I didn't delete the old machine out of AD before I did it, so I'm not sure if it got confused with that. I deleted the old name, removed and readded it and it picked up the PC with the new name. I have another PC I can set up a direc membership the way you said to and nothing gets added. Started a new collection and can't add any PC to it as well. I uninstalled the client, then rebooted. The server must have found the pc without the client and pushed it down and it installed, but still all the components are installed and only 2 item come under actions.

Hello - What about the discovery methods and schedules? Did you check the disc overy log files Adsysdis.log (the systems are discovered)? How is the SCCM client installed on the system?Anoop C Nair - This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties or guarantees, and confers no rights. |Please remember to click Mark as Answer on the post that helps you, and to click Unmark as Answer if a marked post does not actually answer your question.

adsysdis.log looks like it finds some of the PC's, but not all. I do get a few of these errors on PC's it can't find: WARN: Could not get property (domain) for system (0x80005010)~ $$<SMS_AD_SYSTEM_DISCOVERY_AGENT><Wed May 04 00:00:04.832 2011 Eastern Daylight Time><thread=3376 (0xD30)> The PC i'm looking for isn't listed in the log. In the ccm log on the server, I get an eror about the server's clock not synced with the PDC clock. It worked fine a few days ago, so I'm looking for something yesterday or day before.

I got it working, restart the services. Apparently it has to do with the backup and there's a KB patch for it. I closed the browser before I could get the patch, so will need to go and find it again, but seems to have fixed the issues.
