    I'm doing a migration from one site to another and I've just started with one ip range boundary. I did a discovery on the new systems and they all show up in my new site and the clients are getting installed. The only problem is that they are still connecting to the old MP. I can see this in ClientLocation.log. What am I missing?

    Hi,

    Could it be that the SCCM clients in the old site was distributed uisng a GPO? That GPO is "tattoing" so you need to clear that value in the registry if that was used otherwise that will overwrite all ways to set/discover the site code for a client.

    Here is a post on the topic: http://blog.coretech.dk/heh/new-agents-will-not-re-assign-to-configmgr-2012-site/

    Also check which site have Boundary Groups configured for site assignment as well. that could alos cause this issue.

    Oh man, I did have a GPO that tattoo'd the old site code! Thanks for the note! I created a new GPO with the new site code and applied it to the OU I'm working on. I ran gpupdate on the one of the clients and voila! it works!

    Thanks for knowing what's going on in my network!
