  Have a look at Jason's start-up script: http://blog.configmgrftw.com/configmgr-client-startup-script/

  Hi,

  I like to use Jason Sandys excellen startup script is executed as an startup script.. it provides much more control and many more features than using the .adm files which ships with SCCM 2012.

  Compared to Client push there are many advantages as well, you don't have to open all the ports on the client, the script provides more features like wmi-check. It is a great resource.

  Personally I find push from the primary site great, but it's not 100 % reliable. So usually install the client via MDT / or GPO if existing site as well as a client push.

  Thanks guys!
  

  Since the client is already installed on each computer with the old site code how will the install behave considering that piece?

  Hi,

  Jasons script will not change the site code only ensure that the SCCM client is installed with a minimum version you define in the .xml file.

  Here is a script you can use to change the site code on the clients  ,http://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/scriptcenter/Change-sccm-configmgr-cf6e0327
