Hey All;

I've recently set up a new SEPM 12.1 test enviroment. I was testing SEPM's Replication partner settings, and ran into a little bit of a Hitch. Not sure if it's my fault, or something i'm just not aware of.

background:

i've deployed two SEPM VM's sepm-1 and sepm-2

sepm-1 is the primary, and sepm-2 was set up as a new site, and as a repliaction partner for sepm-1

the replication seems to work just fine.

they're both on the same vSwitch, and in the same IP Range. 192.168.108.x

Now when i create install packages from Sepm-2 i select that i want the computer's placed in the grou My Company > Site 2 > Desktops. i choose a install package settings file i made on sepm-2 and create the package. when i deploy this package to a machine everything seems to work fine, but the machine reports in to sepm-1 and not sepm-2. i can only see the machine in the clients listing after i replicate from sepm-1.

i'd like to have any clients installed with a package from sepm-2 to be in sepm-2, not sepm-1. Is this because they're on the same subnet? or have i missed something else entirely here?

Thanks for your assistance;

Tony
