Hi
I have a list of almost 500 computers which I shortly going to delete from AD. At the same time, I would like to delete the computers from the Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager.
What is the easiest and fastest way to do this? I'm thinking somebody maybe have a script ?

hi,
You can configure automatica delete setting
Configure SEPM to remove clients which have not connected within a specific number of days.
NOTE: In version 12.1 of the SEPM, the location for adjusting the setting to delete clients which have not connected for X number of days has moved:
Configuring a low value for this setting would clear up the duplicates more quickly
Thanks In Advance

Not sure if there is a script or not but you can set the time clients should be removed after "x" days to somethign low like 2 days. After which time those PCs will be removed, you can set the time back to what you had it previously.

As we have alot of traveling users, I'll not change the days in "Delete Clients that have not connected for x days"
I was hoping to find another solution
Thanks anyway guys

Hello,
When the Clients are deleted from the AD, the clients would automatically disappear from the SEPM on the next sync of SEPM with AD.
However, incase you want to remove the enteries from the Database in that case, you would have to us the steps provided by Ashish above.
