If you open the discover.log on your thin client, you will see the registering sequence is like:

 

1. Current Gateway

2. Backup Gateway

3. DHCP option

4. DNS

5. Boradcast

 

The DM agent will try  above values one by one with prioriy, the NEXT value will only be used when none of the previous value is available.

 

So in your case, simply set DHCP option for that specific subnet. As long as the Agent in the subnet can find Server from DHCP option, it will not try DNS way.

Are you talking about the the feature of Status Walker?  If so, you can use the Schedule options to specify the time and frequency of this task.

 

Find the feature through Tools -> Status Walker.

 

Please note the feature has been removed since 4.7.

Oh, then you're not suppose to trigger the discover from DM Console.

 

Suggest to use either DHCP option or DNS record to let device register automatically.

Most client's are able to register by using dns option. 

I have one subnet that is restricted and goes to a seperat hpdm server.

I could use dhcp option but will it use the dhcp option if the dns record point to another server?
