Transferring systems between McAfee ePO servers

Even if you have a perfectly organized System Tree that mirrors your network hierarchy, and use

148 McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator
Once a managed system has been marked for transfer, two agent-server
communications must occur before the system is displayed in the
System Tree of the target server. The length of time required to
complete both agent-server communications depends on your
configuration. The default agent-server communication interval is one
hour.
