When the site server also has the distribution point role, if a package isn't targeted to the server, the package is still in the single content library. The tool doesn't support removing content from the site server, which has a single content library. Run it directly on the server that hosts the distribution point to clean up, or remotely from another computer. Only run the tool against a single distribution point at a time. For more information on this location, see The CD.Latest folder. Starting in version 2010, the tool can also remove orphaned content records from the WMI provider on a distribution point.įind ContentLibrar圜leanup.exe in CD.Latest\SMSSETUP\TOOLS\ContentLibrar圜leanup on the site server. Making a mistake during this process could cause more severe issues with the server. To mitigate the issue in version 2006 and earlier, you had to manually remove the orphaned entries from WMI. Over time, this behavior can eventually lead to a warning status on the distribution point. If you remove content from a distribution point while the site system is offline, an orphaned record can exist in WMI. The tool can't remove content from the content library on the site server. The tool only affects the content on the distribution point that you specify when you run the tool. This tool replaces older versions of similar tools released for past Configuration Manager products. This type of content is called orphaned content. Use the content library cleanup command-line tool to remove content that's no longer associated with an object on a distribution point. Applies to: Configuration Manager (current branch)
