Hi, We are trying to use the unattended install command to install the SCOM 2012 R2 agents on Windows 2012 servers. Below is the command we used for upgrading and installing SCOM 2007 on Windows servers. Is this still correct? I was an article that stated the "SET_ACTION_ACTION=1" was changed or replaced with something else. Of course I can't find that article again.

I was attempting to base it off the component because (from what I can tell) within the Silect MP Author tool, you must browse and select an actual "component" and you cannot simply select a key and click OK. I haven't tried to change that much from within MP Author, but I will certainly give your idea a shot about TRUE/FALSE on the existence of the key and fall back to making sure the "component" value does not equal zero. Thank you again.

I manually created that key on 3 servers as part of a test, no application or anything is automatically creating that structure or key value. However, I imported the MP into our SCOM 2012 R2 environment and a server that does not have that registry key has started reporting errors about the services not running. Inside Health Explorer for the server, it shows this discovery and all the monitors I setup based on it. Again, the registry key doesn't exist on the server and neither do any of the services I am attempting to monitor. Is there any known issue using the above strategy? I created this discovery via Silect's "MP Author" tool. I'm including the XML output in case it shows where I've gone wrong.
