RE-deploying application packages to an existing PC.

$
0
0

Gentlemen, 

We have bunch of PC's where few packages were pushed couple of months ago using SCCM, These PC's are running windows 7 but they all will be re-imaged again with windows 7 which means packages which were pushed via sccm will no longer be there. I assume SCCM will think packages were installed so no need to push the packages again even though they are still part of Collection.

How can i make sure as soon as these PC's come online after re-imaging they get the existing packages ASAP with no latency ? How can i trick sccm to think these are brand new pc and needed packages? 


Is there anyway to configure SCCM 2012 to send email notice to a DL when a particular application version is not installed?

$

We are currently using GPO login scripts to do this and it sends an email to a DL when it detects that systems do not have the latest version of a particular software product installed and the AD Admin wanted to know if we could leverage SCCM for this. I told him that I was not certain, but that I would find out and get back to him. 

Is this a possibility within SCCM by any chance?

Thanks


Heads-up – Installation of CRM 2015 x86 stops task sequence and breaks CM Agent - ConfigMgr 2012 R2 SP1 CU

$

Hi folks,

I just want to warn about an odd case regarding deployment of CRM 2015 in task sequence.

We’ve upgraded to CRM 2015 and deployed CRM 2015 Outlook client with update 0,1 and English MUI Update 0,1.
Added the CMR installation to our Task Sequence for new computers.

When we now deploying new computers, the task sequence stops after the CRM 2015 installation.
After a lot of investigation we see that it’s a CRM 2015 prerequisite that breaks the CM client and the task sequence fails.

CM Client version 5.00.8239.1203.8239 contains prerequisite Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable version 12.0.21005.1 (X64).
CRM 2015 Client contains prerequisite Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable version 12.0.30501.0 (X86).
When installing MVC++ from CRM the CM agent stops working.

Our solution to this odd problem was to Update the CM client installation with Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable version 13.0.30501.0 (X64).
I never thought that a X86 installation of VC++ would breaks an X64 installation of VC++ and the CM agent.

 

Software Updates is mixed with all available software in Software Center

Hi,

When we deploy software updates (as available) for Windows to the company, they get information that there is new software in the Software Center, which we currently is using for all out software installations. This means that the users see both the updates and all the available software like in the picture below. The problem is that the users sometimes by a mistake installs ALL the software that is available for them, instead of only the updates. For some machines there is up to 50 applications in the list, so this is causing big problems for us.

The only solution we had found that worked was to set the software update deployment as REQUIRED and HIDDEN in the Software Center. BUT this is also not optimal, as the users complains about computers being extremely slow at random times (When updates is being installed...).

My question is:

1. Is there any planned fix for this? (Like adding an extra tab called Available Updates or something)

2. Is there any software solution that can be used as an alternative to the Software Center that can handle this?

How does SCCM 2012 determine if a package is already installed? I see the options for applications but not for packages.

script/query to display all requirements that have been added to application deployments in sccm 2012

$
0
0

Our SCCM environment is a mixture of Windows 7 clients and citrix servers. So we add a requirement to each application deployment type that the OS must be Windows 7 to allow the install to take place to prevent applications installing directly to citrix servers.

We had an issue recently whereby this requirement was missed off one application, and this install was inadvertantly rebooting citrix servers when the user included in the application collection logged in to a separate application through Receiver.

What I would like to do is run a script/query to browse through all of our applications and to list any requirements that have been added - if I then find any other applications without the 'windows 7' OS rule not applied, I can then correct these.

Failing this, is there a script which will show which applications have been deployed to any of our citrix servers - which I can base either on OS, or the asset prefix?

Thank you.

Missing Some Built-In Reports

I have 217 reports available in SCCM, but I am missing some report groups like software updates so I can check my compliance. Is there a way to trigger more reports to be added? I have configuration manager setup in a different environment and it was able to get all the reports I need, but this time around I am not getting all the reports I need.

Hi All ,

How to upgrade  MS office 2010 to 2013 zero touch installation.I

have tried it's been available in client system center available software while installing ask agreement and upgrade option also.i need to upgrade without any manual tinteraction

what is Installation program script in deployment option



After changing a parameter in a script for one of my application deployments and after I update the DPs so the change can be propagated to them, the application still runs in the manner it did prior to the change. Why is this?

$

I have Pull DPs configured with one source DP. I am trying to configure an application deployment using the PS App Deployment Toolkit and it works perfectly, but when I make a change in the script for the MSI to run silently and to not reboot after installation (-Parameters "REBOOT=ReallySuppress /QN") it is still displaying the installation progress display box as if the "/QB-!" switch is still being used. 

How can I ensure that the change gets propagated to all the DPs so the application runs as expected?

Thank you all

SCCM 2012 How to force deployment to rerun immediately

$
0

Hi

In SCCM 2007, to rerun an advertisement, it was simply a matter of right click advertisement, and click Rerun.

What would be the best way to do the same on SCCM 2012?

My scenario is that, i have a very simple application setup for "Required" deployment, with an installation deadline of "as soon as possible". Few weeks later, i have to update the source file in the App. Its just a flat config file.

What i would like to try is to simply update the file in the source, and update the content.

The detection rule checks for datestamp, so this new file should be deployed when the application eval kicks in (which is set for 7 days).

My Question is, is there a way to force the deployment to deploy this file, by tweaking some settings, instead of waiting for the next application eval cycle?

Thanks, DM.

Hi,

When I run a powershellscript on a Windows 2008 r2 (updated Powershell to version 4.0, updated the cmdlets, SCCM itself is updated to latest version = SP1), we get the following error:

Deleting Deployment

Hi

     I deployed Adobe Acrobat 11 to a small Device Collection but when I deleted the deployment it uninstalled Acrobat. I've checked through the app setup and I couldn't see any setting that I missed that might cause this to happen. Would anyone know where I might have went wrong?

Many thanks,

Problem with distribute application via SCCM console and prestage option

$

Hi,

I have problems with distribute very big applications (Autodesk products) in SCCM 2012 R2. Everytime when I distribute this Autodesk application distribution process is failed. I through that can be two reasons:

1. Poor network connection

2. Daily SCCM backup task stops process of distribution.

I decided use "Create prestaged content file" option. Ready file I have copied via Robocopy and next I have imported application on DP. And here is a problem... I have done it on three DP's. One is fine but two after two days reported about "problem with update package". What a update - I have not updated application. Could you explain me what update process SCCM is thinking? :-)

Thank yo very much for answer.

User-based deployment to untrusted forest

$

Case:

  • Domain A has ConfigMgr 2012 server with all roles (MP, DP, SUP...)
  • Domain B is untrusted and hasn't got any ConfigMgr site server roles installed
  • ConfigMgr site has been introduced to Domain B also, so all the resources can be discovered (systems, users)
  • I can deploy software to systems in the untrusted forest
  • I cannot deploy software to users in the untrusted forest

Is this normal behavior? Do I need MP to untrusted forest so that I can get my user deployment's working? When I deploy software to users in the untrusted domain, they don't even show up in the AppDiscovery.log and deployment status on the console doesn't show the device for the user.


Application Infrastructure Errors - CI Agent Job was canceled

$

Something very strange has been happening to my deployments of late. When I check the statistics of an application deployment a couple hours after the deadline, everything looks good:

However, give it a day and the following occurs:

Looking at the deployment statistics for the app, there are only 3-4 errors, which does not match what the main statistics pie chart is saying. Running the Application Infrastructure Errors report shows the bulk of the errors fall into error code -2016401858,"CI Agent job was canceled".

I've done some Google searching, but only found one article about that error, Monitoring of an application tells me that the installation was successful, but after a while, the same monitoring tells me that the installation that was successful now got a lot of errors. My symptoms are the same, but the suggested causes are not applicable to my environment. This is a newly-created application that has no dependencies or supersedence rules set.

My environment consists of one primary and one secondary site. Clients are in various states of upgrade to R2 CU1, but I have observed this issue on clients in several different versions. Any thoughts as to what might be causing this?

Monitoring of an application tells me that the installation was successful, but after a while, the same monitoring tells me that the installation that was successful now got a lot of errors.

This is the monitoring windows telling me that Elements have a compliance % of 57,1, and it was about 98-99%...

As you can see, I’ve got 92 clients that are successful and 69 errors, which is wrong…

And the correct amount of errors are 2 computers that failed.

I’ve checked some of the computers that get this deployment, and who is not located in the successful status, and they all got Elemets installed.

Why do I get all these errors when the installation is successful?
I find it very strange that its random which computers that report successful, and after a while then reports error(but nothing is logged in the error log…)


I have tried this solution from Patrik Schumacher, and it works, just for a while…

Dear Experts,

I was trying to Use WSUS, SCUP 2011 with SCCM 2012 R2 SP1. While trying to Deploy the Updates are getting published, and getting displayed on Configuration Manager 2012 Software Center.

After trying to fix the Trusted Publisher & Trusted Root Certificate Relationship, Found that the Adobe Certificate which used for Reader does not have the Certificate tenure for more than a day.

If I try to remove it and Install it - Does it make any impact? or Can renew the Certificate Expiry date?
