Client Management Suite

I need to delete the computers that Altiris Agent is not installed. I tried to create a filter, but when I delete the computers this still in "Manage-->Computers"

I use the Purge maintenance, but nothing...

Can anyone help me?

I'm sure there is an easier method but I know how I get rid of a pc is by opening it (the computer) in Resource Manager and selecting delete on the left menu.

if not, you can obviously delete them from Manage | Computers.

Also, it might be your drill-down isn't configured and thus you can't delete, but...

OH, and if you really wanted to get fancy, you could use I think it's called Deleteitem.cs or something which is out there.  There's documentation on how to use this somewhere in the KB - I just remembered it while typing this.  It allows you to put in a SQL query for GUIDS and then goes through and deletes all the associated GUIDS.  WARNING: if you mess this up, you can seriously damage your NS - think about it.  Removing the wrong GUIDS could cause a HEAP of trouble.  But if your list is huge, and you're 100% sure about your query, it's an option.

JLawson has the safest of all answers, but I think the report should be able to work.  If you can't, maybe that's something I'll work on.  :D  Might be fun!

Question
Purging Maintenance only deletes resources which are managed. How do you automatically purge computers which are not managed?

I see the same problem. I had a filter of a select computers that got the agent to early. I ran all the uninstall jobs and the Altiris 7 agent was removed. I then deleted all the computers in that filter. However after a few hours they came back and still show as managed. It's like the backend data isn't being deleted when you delete the computer account.

In there find the resources, then right click and DELETE!

Should work managed or not!

Not quite. When the AD import job kicks off again the computers will show up as managed even though they don't have the agents installed anymore.
