After reinstalling, the clients are quickly reappearing and are showing up Active. A great improvement! Now I simply need to fix the WSUS connection, and re-create all my groups, software update groups, deployment packages, rules... but at least we are turning it around. Thanks for your response Rocket Man, I may be back if I get stuck.

I just recently realized that the Windows Management Framework 3.0 had disabled all my clients for SCCM 2012. In attempting to update SCCM to SP1, I stupidly installed the new product instead of searching out the upgrade option (don't ask). So now I have a fully functional SCCM 2012 SP1, with no clients/ no groups/ no software updates... just a clean install. I am beginning to accept the fact that I may have to re-create all this work, but was wondering if I will need to go to each of my existing clients who are still looking for my last instance of SCCM. I have only the one primary installation and when I reinstalled I kept all the same naming conventions. Any ideas if I will be able to remotely gather these devices and adapt them to the new instance of SCCM? Or am I going to have to go out and manually uninstall the client software on nearly 500 devices? Any help would be greatly apprecaited.
