Well, You’re not allowed to rename a site system in a supported manner, so that won’t work. You could try and make sure the publishing of this mp in Active Directory isn’t accessible.
Alternatively file a DCR to reverse the alphabet.

Yes actually it is. We thought about that as well, but don’t know a way around it without removing the role.

Any chance this happens to be the alphabetically "lowest" mp? Sent from my Windows Phone ________________________________ From: Daniel Ratliff<mailto:[email protected]> Sent: 20/09/2013 19:48 To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: [mssms] How is MPLOCATION populated on the MPs? We are troubleshooting policy issues in WinPE for OSD, no task sequences available, and think it may be related to a specific MP. The problem is we cannot figure out why the MPLOCATION always points to this specific MP for this site. http://randomMP/SMS_MP/.sms_aut?MPLOCATION&ir=1.1.1.1&ip=1.1.1.0 <MPLocation SiteCode="PRI" AssignedSiteCode=" PRI" MP="http://BADMP"; We have a primary with 3 MPs on it and it always returns a specific MP. We have ran the above URL on all three MPs and always get the BADMP. We are publishing to AD but not DNS, would it be the publishing to AD? I did check the MP Component settings on the primary and it has all three MPs listed, we have unchecked the culprit MP but everything still tries to hit that MP. We also have tried disabling IIS and a few other intrusive methods to prevent communication with the MP, pretty much everything besides removing the role itself. Any ideas?
