By default, when you reinstall the package on a new laptop that has the name of an existing (old) laptop client, both clients are displayed in the Web Console. The old laptop is renamed to include the name of the user that performed the reinstallation. For example, laptopName_AdminUser.
If you want to take over or replace the old laptop clients with the new laptops automatically after reinstalling the package, configure the dForceClientOverride additional setting.
-
To the CommServe computer, add the dForceClientOverride additional setting as shown in the following table.
For instructions on adding the additional settings from the CommCell Console, see Add or Modify an Additional Setting.

You will see two entries in the Web Console: one of the new client, and another for the old client. Value = 1: Users with CommCell level Administrative Management rights are given permissions to reinstall the laptop package on existing laptop clients, completely replacing the old laptop client in the Web Console. |
