You can specify the that OU in your AD system discovery, but if the machines 
are disabled, Sccm won’t be able to communicate with them.

Subject: [mssms] Dealing with Disabled Machines?

We currently have a script that disables machines (in AD) and moves them to 
another OU when they haven’t been online for x days.

The issue I have is that the machines are then invisible to SCCM and so they 
don’t update which collection they are in.  We have a collection for ‘All 
Desktops and Laptops’ which now has a lot of old disabled machines in it, this 
plays havoc with your compliance reports.

Does anyone know if it is possible to update the computer objects in SCCM so 
that they report the correct collection (and OU)?  Ideally we would like the 
collection to exactly mimic the AD OU.

P.s We want to keep the old objects in SCCM so we have some information about 
old machines, ie we don’t want to ‘clean up’ them.
