Just a note about my previous post using a VBscript to move the VDI from one ou to another once it was already joined to the Domain.

I have found this method to be problematic, and to fail about 20% of the time. I believe the problem is due to AD repliaction. The Virtual Center customization joins the VDI to the domain, reboots, and then the logon once functionality tries to run the ou move script. However, after the reboot, the VDI may authenticate to a different domain controller that has not yet been updated with the computer account. This causes the ou move script to fail becasue it can not look up the computers DN in AD.

So, I tried using the much more elegant netdom method (posted previously) which does the domain join, and ou move in one step. I have found it to work reliably, and is also much simpler.

Thanks

Justin
