Thanks for your

Thanks for your answers

but

a) I already created a package to install  client and   automatically  put to  prefered group according to the type of chassis ( server, desktop, laptop). I modified the sylink.xml with a program.

b) 45 days is MY parameter in "deleted......." option

I want to know if the functioning about client SEP, is normal when a client was deleted ( automatically or manuall) , and this client restarts,  must it to register to default group instead of to keep the preferred group

thanks & regards

When a client was deleted (

When a client was deleted ( automatically or manuall) and this client restarts, must it to register with the prefered group.If the preferred group is not available it will go to the default group (SEP will internally find it's Group using unique ID.So if you delete any group and recreate in same name also the ID will be different.).

That's change on RU6 MP1 (11.0.6005.5562)

Hello,

In RU6 Mp1 you have an new registry entry, "CurrentGroup".

When a client  be deleted, he try to connect on this group first, if this group cannot be found on the SEPM, he try to connect in the "PreferredGroup"...If this group cannot be found, the client goes in "Default Group".

The difference with this two registry entry is:

    * "PreferredGroup" => Is Default group when you have install the SEP Client.
    * "CurrentGroup" Is the last group defined for this client on the SEPM when the client have communicated with him for last time.
