    I'm having an issue with SCCM 2007. I've discovered all my computers and I'm building collections based on OU. My collections get created correctly, but when I move computers to a different OU, the collection does not update.
    I have Active Directory System Discovery enabled and the polling schedule is set to "Occurs every 1 day(s) effective 1/1/1998 12:00 AM".
    Has anyone seen this before?

    Active Directory System Discovery doesn't retrieve the OU info (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc181458.aspx)

     

    Make sure the collection updates after the Active Directory System Group Discovery has completed so the OU information will be present on the machines

    The machines in my All Systems collection have an entry for System OU Name, so I think the initial discovery worked. I thought that after the Active Directory discovery ran every night, it would reflect the changes made to AD.

    I noticed that AD System Group Discovery and AD System Discovery are enabled.
    AD Security Group Discovery and AD User Discovery are not.

    Like Matthew said, discovery will have to run then your collection must update before you see changes. It could take a while.

    It's been weeks since I moved computers to a different OU. Discovery is supposed to run every day. Is there some way to tell when a discovery ran and whether or not it was successful?

    Strt by running a SQL query to see what OU's ConfigMgr "thinks' the comptuer is in. Use this:


    SELECT     dbo.v_R_System.Name0, dbo.v_RA_System_SystemOUName.System_OU_Name0
    FROM         dbo.v_R_System INNER JOIN
                          dbo.v_RA_System_SystemOUName ON dbo.v_R_System.ResourceID = dbo.v_RA_System_SystemOUName.ResourceID
    WHERE     (dbo.v_R_System.Name0 = 'COMPUTERNAME')

    I ran the query and the results showed SCCM still thinks in the the old OU.
    I also ran a Discovery information for a specific computer report.
     
    SMS_AD_SYSTEM_GROUP_DISCOVERY_AGENT          Number of Days Since Discovery - 30
    SMS_AD_SYSTEM_DISCOVERY_AGENT                        Number of Days Since Discovery - 57
    Heartbeat Discovery                                                         Number of Days Since Discovery - 63
    MP_ClientRegistration                                                      Number of Days Since Discovery - 63
    Manual Machine Entry                                                      Number of Days Since Discovery - 64


    Does this mean my discovery is not running nightly as it should? How can I tell?
