PENDING SCCM - Not cleaning up Computer objects

[briteeyez]

Hello

I am new to this application and need some guidance.

I just ran a manual system discovery and based on the count in AD and the count in SCCM they do not coincide. I am cleaned up my AD environment but SCCM is not removing the obsolete systems.

The schedules are below for the tasks I believe would perform the necessary maintenance. Are they any other tasks I need to have enabled to get SCCM cleaned up.





Thanks

CM will NOT delete the device until 90 days AFTER there is no activative. IMO it is best to manually delete them.

These machines have been inactive for more than the 90 days, its just that the team just cleaned them from AD.

And what about DNS?

 

[briteeyez]

No, DNS hasn't been cleaned. So once that cleanup of DNS has been done, will the objects be removed from SCCM? or should I go ahead and delete manually?

When I try to manually delete the computer objects I get the following error



Should I proceed?

The DNS has been cleaned. How can I force SCCM to delete the unused objects right away?

if you are looking to do it NOW then delete them by hand.
