Hi Stefan,
Based on what you’ve written, I suspect the issue might be:
- Existing objects have incorrect or incomplete attributes
Azure AD Connect only synchronizes objects that meet certain requirements. If the existing objects are missing necessary attributes, such as:
msDS-DeviceID (the unique ID of the device).
OperatingSystem and OperatingSystemVersion.
You can check these attributes for the existing device objects in Active Directory using the following PowerShell command:
Get-ADComputer -Filter * -SearchBase "OU=YourDevicesOU,DC=yourdomain,DC=com" -Property msDS-DeviceID, OperatingSystem, OperatingSystemVersion.
If any attributes are missing, make sure to populate them and then test the synchronization again.
Let me know of this is helpful
