you can use the tool provided in install media CD 2 \Tools\NoSupport\MoveClient_Utility and use the script

SwitchClientGroups.txt to convert user mode to computer mode or vice versa.

Do a search with values as shown below & then you can switch them.

Note: top left option should be users.

I am unable to paste a screenshot for some reason.

Search clients > Find - Users; Search Field - Logon Computer Name; Comparison Operator - = > search

Hi,

You can accomplish it with the help of Move client utility.

Symantec provides an unsupported tool which can accomplish this task on a per-group basis in RU6 and later known as the MoveClient Utility. It is highly recommended that customers review the included instructions (provided in PDF and Microsoft Word format) before utilizing this tool

How to use the MoveClient Utility to switch multiple machines between computer and user mode.

I hope it will help you !!!

We do an AD sync to pull in our 6,000 + clients.  Some clients are showing up as online in our computers OU and others in our users OU.  I ran the utility and specified the users OU but after running the utility in the log it stated that there were no clients found that needed to be switched.  I've let this sit for a few days not thinking that maybe changes would show up in the SEPM console but nothing has changed.  All our install packages are set for computer mode.  It is really making it difficult to manage or clients to verify they are working correctly.  Any additional suggestions?

Solution

Provided with SEP RU6 and later is the MoveClient tool. It is available on the installation DVD under \Tools\NoSupport\MoveClient_Utility.

NOTE: The MoveClients utility is unsupported. Refer to MoveClients.pdf for full documentation.

MoveClients will read in a text data file, connect to the database and can accomplish the following tasks:

- Move clients to a new group based on hostname, username, IP address or Operating System.

- Bulk Switch clients from User Mode to Computer Mode or vice-versa.

Did you get this done?
