GUID gets mixed up when joining domain?

Question

Hi all,

 

 

I've a new laptop which I imported in a collection to deploy Vista true computer association.

When I deploy a Vista Image towards a pc with a Task Sequence set to "join a domain". My initial GUID that has been entered in the "computer association", is getting mixed up after i check properties in SCCM?!

 

So I imported this GUID: 93C9320F-3B15-E011-38A0-6D991010C129

After deployment and setting the pc in the domain, i get this guid: 0F32C993-153B-11E0-38A0-6D991010C129

You see the numbers are the same but mixed up.

 

This doesn't happen when I deploy a PC towards a workgroup :blink:

when importing the pc using computer association, if you only use the MAC address do you see any problems ?

 

 

I never tried to import them with the mac address only. Didn't know if I could do it that way.

I'll try.

 

But my problem is fixed.

I imported a PC with mac address + GUID.

When I deploy an OS towards the pc it generates a new GUID and creates a new entry in your "system" collection.

Then your old pc will become Obsolete. I made a query on my test collection that pc with name "x" always gets imported.

 

So I see 2 pc's with the same name. One obsolete and one not obsolete.

Then you have to delete the Obsolete pc from your collection.

 

So that's why I think your suggestion is better (importing mac adress only)
