Gee, just looked into the drivers for the HP Elitebook 800 G1 DM Source package folder goes from 400MB to 1.2GB in the package
A single file in the source exists now 152 times in the package. Amazing that something like that wasnt caught during basic testing I have R2SP1 in prod. although no OSD yet, but obviously I need this to be fixed before deploying clients -R From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Daniel Ratliff Sent: Donnerstag, 9.

When I tried the package creation in this fashion, the driver package source ballooned to over 12GB (vs 1 GB of extracted content) before I forcibly stopped the process, as I was afraid our site server data drive would run out of space. The Realtek audio driver was the worst offender (creating multiple copies of the 183 MB folder, as there are 50 inf files in it), but it seemed to trip over the Intel Chipset driver folders as well. I deleted the imported drivers and semi-finished driver package for this model at that point. I then went ahead and deleted the Realtek audio driver sources from the extracted content and replaced them with previous version of the Realtek audio drivers available from HP for that model (which had 1 .inf in the folder instead of 50) and re-imported everything. After that, package creation finished, but the final driver package was about 3-4 GB (once again, vs. a 1 GB driver source size). I have imported and created driver packages for other HP models using the method above and there's a 1-1 relation in size of the driver source to the packages created prior to our SP1 upgrade. This isn't 100% scientific, but that's pretty much what I was seeing last week.

We havent upgraded to SP1 ourselves, but I know others that have and have tickets opened. Daniel Ratliff From: [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Mike Dougherty Sent: Tuesday, July 7, 2015 12:45 PM To: [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> Subject: [mssms] Configuration Manager 2012 R2 SP1 Driver Package "Duplicates" bug I've seen this issue reported on Microsoft Connect and I've read anecdotal evidence that Microsoft is supposedly aware of the issue, but I wanted to reach out here to see if any can comment more-or-less officially whether or not this is a known issue... Long story short, since updating to R2 SP1, we've found that creating Driver Packages via the console causes massive content bloat. It seems that the process is a causing creation of a duplicate copy of the driver source for every .inf file in a driver source folder. For example, for model of hardware X, the audio driver source content folder has 50 .inf files in it. The folder containing the .inf files is 183 MB. When I go to create a driver package from this source, ConfigMgr creates 50 copies of the 183MB source folder when creating the driver package (or something along these lines). It caused me a minor freak-out last week when I was trying to create a driver package for 1 GB worth of content that ballooned to over 12GB in the "package" before I killed the process... Has anyone else seen this? Is MS aware of this issue? If you need me to provide more specifics, please let me know and I'll try to help out where I can.
