In this post we are going to see the “Hierarchy Configuration” which includes the Discovery and Boundaries settings.

It is very important that we perform these settings, so this will help you pull the Objects that are existing in the forest. (Includes Users, Groups, Computers etc…)

Open the SCCM Console---Select Administration---Expand Hierarchy Configuration

SCCM 2012 R2 SITE TYPES

System Center 2012 Configuration Manager introduces the central administration site and some changes to primary and secondary sites. The following tables summaries these sites and how they compare to sites in Configuration Manager 2007. 

Site	Purpose	Change from Configuration Manager 2007
Central administration site	The central administration site coordinates intersite data replication across the hierarchy by using Configuration Manager database replication. It also enables the administration of hierarchy-wide configurations for client agents, discovery, and other operations. Use this site for all administration and reporting for the hierarchy.	Although this is the site at the top of the hierarchy in System Center 2012 Configuration Manager, it has the following differences from a central site in Configuration Manager 2007: Does not process data submitted by clients, except for the Heartbeat Discovery discovery data record. Does not accept client assignments. Does not support all site system roles. Participates in database replication
Primary site	Manages clients in well-connected networks.	Primary sites in System Center 2012 Configuration Manager have the following differences from primary sites in Configuration Manager 2007: Additional primary sites allow the hierarchy to support more clients. Cannot be tiered below other primary sites. No longer used as a boundary for client agent settings or security. Participates in database replication.
Secondary site	Controls content distribution for clients in remote locations across links that have limited network bandwidth.	Secondary sites in System Center 2012 Configuration Manager have the following differences from secondary sites in Configuration Manager 2007: SQL Server is required and SQL Server Express will be installed during site installation if required. A management point and distribution point are automatically deployed during the site installation. Secondary sites can send content distribution to other secondary sites. Participates in database replication.
