No, the OU in the example contains all the same kind of computer object.
That's the strange part, we can't see any differences between the objects
that ADSGD finds and the objects it doesn't find.

It's when we specify the domain root for ADSGD it finds 488 out of the 982
assigned systems. Then when we were troubleshooting we specified single OUs,
just to see what was going on.

Right now this seems pretty hopeless. Is there a way to get adsysgrp.log to
contain more detailed information?
