To delete obsolete systems in SCCM

Simply create a collection, use a query to find all machines with "obsolete
= 1". This way you can find all obsolete machines quickly. Then you can
right click the collection and choose "delete special" to delete all
machines in the collection.

There is one maintenance task to delete obsolete machines. Default it is
delete obsolete machines older than 90 days. You can change that to 60 days,
or 30 days or whatever you like.

Pull Dp concept

When a package is distributed to a PullDP, DistMgr creates a PkgXferMgr job and added to the queue. - PkgXferMgr processes the job and creates a PullDP notification in the PullDPs WMI. - PullDP reads the notification and starts the download from a assigned Standard DP based on priority. - Once the notification is written, PkgXferMgr monitors the job for next 10 hours (max value hardcoded). Every 60 mins. - If the status is not received from the PullDP, it will mark the distribution as Failed and it creates a Status Message and DistMgr processes the message. - if a package is successfully downloaded in the PullDP, even after it exceeds the 10 hours, it will send the status to MP and it will drop a file in Distmgr.box. - DistMgr will check the existing status in the PkgStatus table. - Since the PkgXferMgr already dropped a failed status, it will ignore the status which has been sent by PullDP. - So the status will stay as failed. But content is distributed. However clients won’t work d
