Tombstone Lifetime varies from one AD version to another I believe. I thought that it started at 60 days and was increased in 2008 to be 180 days. You can check it by http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc784932(v=WS.10).aspx
Unless you are planning to synchronise deletions from AD with removals from CM I don’t see much benefit in this Sent from Windows Mail From: [email protected] Sent: Wednesday, 8 January 2014 15:33 To: [email protected] Setting it to anything less than the tombstone age of your domain is a terrible idea.

My site was set to deleted aged clients after 7 days (which, after this break, we have decided is too short of a time). My question is, when computers show back up in config manager (as they have been), will they retain collection membership? We have software deployed to collections and the HelpDesk assigns the machine as a direct rule to the collection to assign software. Will these clients need to be re-added or will they show back up in their appropriate collections? Thanks, Gary
