  • 1.  Delete Clients After X Days

    Posted Oct 20, 2014 01:58 PM

    If I enable the option to delete clients after X days and I am syncing clients via OUs in AD, do the clients actually remove from the manager?

    Secondly, if I don't enable this option, will clients still delete from SEPM if they are removed from AD?  We are ONLY pulling from AD, no manual adds.

    Whatever happens in AD will be the end result. If you sync, whatever shows in AD will also show in SEPM.

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting in Symantec community.

    I would be glad to answer your query.

    If I enable the option to delete clients after X days and I am syncing clients via OUs in AD, do the clients actually remove from the manager?

    --> No, it's not appliacable if it's synch with AD.

    Secondly, if I don't enable this option, will clients still delete from SEPM if they are removed from AD?  We are ONLY pulling from AD, no manual adds.

    --> Yes, if you deleted from AD it will get remove from the SEPM.
