Application Catalog Role Creation

Hi All,

My SCCM hierarchy consists of one CAS and 5 primary servers.  I have configured Application catalog role in one of the primary servers. Is one catalog point enough to manage the whole machines in my hierarchy or do I need to configure this role in each primary?  Please suggest.

Enabling BranchCache for SCCM

Hello All,

I've been reading up on using BranchCache together with SCCM 2012 R2 and was wondering if I'm going the right way to enabling BranchCache.

We would like to use it in Distributed Cache Mode, where only clients in remote sites share content with other clients.
No servers are available on those sites.

As far as I understood it, I have to install the "BranchCache for Network Files" role service on my DP.
On my clients I have to assign a GPO which will enable GPO and set the clients to the Ditributed Cache Mode.
On my deployments I have to select 'Allow clients to share content with other clients on the same subnet'

Are these the only steps I have to take to enable the feature?

How can I confirm this is working other than inspecting network monitoring for decreased load?
Is this also logged somewhere?

Thanks in advance!

Application Catalog slow in updating

Our application catalog has gotten slow in updating .  For instance I deploy an application to a collection of users and those users are unable to see it until about 2 hours later. Why would it take that long? This is something that had been pretty instantaneous in the past.

Application installs only when a User logs in

I have created an application that is set to run whether on not a user is logged in and it runs for the System and not for user.  The application downloads to the cache but does not install unless someone logs in.  Is there something I'm missing?

Not able to deploy any software to Windows Embedded Standard 7 clients when FBRF enabled

For the first time I'm trying to manage Thin Clients via SCCM and so far the only issue I have is that I can't manage to deploy enything to the clients as long as the FBWF is enabled. When I dissable it everything works fine. There are both file and registry exclusions for the CM stuff.

Here are som errors i get:

SCCM 2012 RTM- Application deployment

Hi,

In my sccm 2012 RTM I have configured an application deployment for MS office 2010 and distributed the content successfully


I also started the deployment to one specified device collection and all contents downloaded to client computer successfully ( I selected "Required" for silent installation )

But in software centre the status is showing "Installing " for more than 6 hours and finally it shows " Past due -Will be retried"

I checked the ccmcache folder and all contents are there but installation not starting

What may be the cause how can I fix it



Repair App-v 5.0 client

Hi,

We installed App-v 5.0 with hotfix 5 in an application. That application has a dependency to its prereqs (visual c++ etc).
That works fine.
However, we'd need to have the possilibity to users to do a repair in case there is an issue with this client.

In packages, you got the option to reinstall. Within applications, you do not have this option.
You could uninstall, but then probably it won't reinstall(?), with a mandatory deploy it will reinstall but after what time?

So please share me your experiences/best practises on this.

App-v 5.0 applications on laptop: howto make sure they are fully downloaded at intial deploy?

Hi,

How can we make sure that App-v packages are fully downloaded for laptops in our enviroment?

Reason to know: we stage a pc with Windows 7, then App-v packages are deployed to it. We need to be 100 percent postive that when we handout the pc to the user, he can take it home and will have all the App-V applications loaded/locally cached.

Please advise.

SCCM/App-V Deployment Errors over HTTPS

I'm getting inconsistent errors when deploying and running app-v applications deployed via SCCM. It seems to be related to HTTPS but I cant put my finger on the cause.

When an application is run, it will often work - however I get these sorts of  errors in virtualapp.log

I'm guessing its some sort of certificate problem, but all looks like it is OK. Also communication between clients and management points is HTTPS and working just fine.

Appreciate any pointers as to what can cause this sort of problem

Thanks in advance

Do available application deployments automatically expire?

Hi,

I've just come across a client where even though it was a member of a few different device collections that have available applications deployed to them the software center was not showing any available apps - just no items found. 

I tried running various cycles from the actions tab of the client but the appdiscovery.log just wasn't updating. I then deleted the deployment for one of the apps and redeployed it to the exact same collection and hey presto it appeared in the software center reasonably quickly. 

Now I can't see any expiry date set on the deployment (it is a couple of months old) but I'm confused why simply deploying it again allowed it to appear. Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Jay

Initiate Application Installation from App Catalog via Command Line / PowerShell

Hey Guys - 

We have a single, fairly extensive OSD task sequence which covers systems for all departments.  Due to it being a single TS for all, PC Lab techs must manually install some apps after it finishes via the Application Catalog.  In past environments, I've used MDT's UDI Wizard to create a frontend where techs could select additional software they wanted installed during the TS and it worked great!  I'm trying to get something like that approved now, but in the meantime told the techs I'd come up with a temporary solution to make their job easier.

Enter WPI (Windows Post Installer.) Back in the days before I used SCCM OSD and relied in Acronis images (yuck), I used a the WPI tool which only ran once - at the first login - even before the desktop loaded.  It's highly customizable and basically shows a single window which lists any applications or scripts (in groups) which you have configured.  You place a checkmark beside each one you want to install, click the "Install" button, then watch it's installer frontend install each of the selected apps.  Once done, it either restarts the PC or exists to the desktop.  For each application I can add, I'm provided with a few options to install it.  Obviously, an installation command line string field, but also a few more like installation order, requirements, and dependencies. 

My Question

Each of the applications I've listed are in our Application Catalog and are advertised to All Users.  Even though I could simply point the installer string to the app's source path and use the same string that the SCCM Application uses, I've been asked to do something different.  Instead, I'm trying to find a command line string which when run would perform the same action as if a user had selected to install an Application from the Application Catalog.

My thoughts are that if this is possible, it would probably be in the form of a PowerShell string - not just a basic command line one.  Since WPI has a frontend which shows the progress of each app's installation progress as well as overall progress, it's designed for the installation strings to install the app silently.  Therefore, I would much prefer my solution run silently as well if possible.

So... does anyone have any idea for how I can make this happen? Thanks!

In case it makes a difference or answers any questions, below are two screenshots showing most of the fields and options which may be used to configure how an application installs in WPI.  I couldn't include the Dependencies one since I could only attach two images to my post.  Also, the manual for WPI is embedded in the application'sdownload (ZIP) and not a page on their site.  For the examples below, I used Google Chrome, but didn't configure anything besides the application's name:

Applications not visible in Software Center

Hi,

I have created some applications in SCCM 2012 but they don't appear in the Software Center on the workstations/laptops. When clicking on "find additional applications from the application catalog" they do appear and i can install/uninstall them. When installing they appear in Software Center.

How can i solve this so they appear in the Software Center? Thnx!

What is "retired" used for ?

Hello,

I've tried to retire an application in SCCM 2012. I expected that the retired application will be removed from the clients but nothing happened.

I'm still able to uninstall / install the application from the software center.

Do I have to remove the deployment type install before that the application gets uninstalled ?

Can someone explain ?

Regards,

Michel


Applying Autologin Profile to Windows Embedded Standard 7 Thin Client

I am trying to apply an  Autologin account to a Windows Embedded 7 device that already has the FBWF enabled using a post-operating system deployment task sequence. So, basically I have an OS task sequence that installs the OS, CM and SCEP agents, as well as a couple base applications like Adobe Reader and Flash then enables the FBWF. From there I have this "Autologin Specific" task sequence to apply the specific autologin account as well as a couple applications.

The "Autologin Specific" task sequence applies the autologin registry keys to set it as an autologin user. The task sequence completes, thus enabling the write filter and the computer boots up and logs in as the autologin user, HOWEVER, after any subsequent reboots a balloon message from the task appears that the user has been logged on with the temporary profile - I believe this is because it can not successfully commit any changes to the protected volume because the FBWB was enabled after the task sequence completed. I am unable to log the user into the computer during the task sequence because CM puts the computer is in Service Mode (where only the local Administrator can log on - because the Write Filter is disabled).

I have also attempted to run the script to apply the autologin user in the OSD task sequence before enabling the Write Filter for the first time. This does not work because the computer never exits "sysprep" mode and logs the user in before the script to enable the write filter kicks in.

I do not want my OSD to finish with the Write Filter disabled because if a machine is being imaged at location, there will be a period of time where a user will be able to walk up and log in, before any additional task sequences are run to lock it down.

HP's answer is to use HPDM or basically use command lines to tun the filter off and on. Uh - Not much help here when CM is putting a computer in Service Mode.

Any thoughts?

Issues deploying SAP BPC client

Hi experts

I need your advise. I have been trying to install BPC SAP client onto the computers using SCCM 2012 R2 however the installation gives up half way.

1. Created a Powershell script, installation is able work. The PowerShell will create a folder C:\Temp\ and copy the Xceedzip.dll to the C:\Temp folder for the installation.

2. Created a Batch file script, installation is able to work. The Batch file script will create a folder C:\Temp\ and copy the Xceedzip.dll to the C:\Temp folder for the installation.

3. Created a software package for the BPC client using SCCM2012, installation is able to work half way and then it stopped. The testing scenario already have C:\Temp\Xceedzip.dll

4. Deployed PowerShell Script, using SCCM2012, went to Software Center to run the installation, using Task Manager, the installation process is able to work half way and then it stopped.

5. Deployed Batch file, using SCCM2012, installation is able to work half way and then it stopped.

went to Software Center to run the installation, using Task Manager, the installation process is able to work half way and then it stopped.

The program is set to run as "Run with administrative rights" and Whether or not a user is logged on.

"BPCCLIENT10_0-10009079.EXE" /s /z"C:\Program Files\SAP BusinessObjects\PC_NW&c:\Temp\xceedzip.dll&NL&ALL"

The other installations in the PowerShell \ Batch file is able to install and run via Software Center without any issue. Except the BPC client.

Please advise, thank you.

Application Applicability = NotApplicable

Hello,

I don't know what happened but I have an application install for Office 2010. It has worked and had it deployed to 3 collections. All 3 collections at the same time decided no more office. I look at the AppIntentEval.log and see the below line for office:

ScopeId_07BE0050-1DAB-4F0B-BE99-524582FE38AF/Application_b8b2784c-4b2d-4f89-a267-eff454b82d18/3 :- Current State = NotInstalled, Applicability = NotApplicable, ResolvedState = None, ConfigureState = NotNeeded, Title = Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2010

I did delete the deployment and recreate it but the system is still not showing in Software Center. This seems to be for any machine that it should be deployed to via these collections. The application still works since it is what I used during OSD, and office does install.

I did redistribute the application before checking the log.

Is there something I can look at on the server for this application?

Query for "not deployed" packages

Looking to do some cleanup.  We have upgraded packages to new versions and migrated a bunch of old packages when we migrated to CM12.  Is there a way to find packages that are NOT deployed?  I'm assuming I can delete/retire most packages with no deployments

thanks
