Can I Disable Travel Mode on My clients?

Goto the SMS Home Page

 
I have several laptop users that move between different sites. Is there anyway I can disable Traveling Mode to stop them being prompted to become a member of the new site? What happens if I disable Traveling Mode?

If you don't have Traveling mode enabled and your user plugs into a subnet managed by different SMS server, the client will automatically de-install the client if:

i) the client can contact any CAP from the original site

ii) the original site's boundaries don't include the new subnet the client has just attached to

The client will automatically re-install itself into the new subnet provided it meets the normal criteria for becoming a client (It's IP address is in the Site server's boundaries and a relevant discovery and installation method is enabled).

A new tool called '
ChkTravl.bat' is included with the Support Tools bundle with SP2. This tool allows you to enable/disable and check the current status of Traveling Mode on a client.

See the Help file for the SMS 2.0 Support Tools (accessible from '
Start | Programs | SMS 2.0 Support Tools | Tools Help'), for details of this utility and how to implement it.
