And to make matters weirder, MDT maintains Applications001,002,003, etc. but ConfigMgr 2012 wants two-digit suffixes, not three. So there is a step in the MDT task sequence that copies the three-digit list into a two-digit COALESCEDAPPS01,02,03,etc., then the install apps step uses COALESCEDAPPS.

J From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Kent, Mark Sent: Thursday, January 9, 2014 10:10 AM To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: [MDT-OSD] Applications dynamic variable With SCCM2007, we install Packages using the dynamic variable of PACKAGES and the MDT Db. With SCCM2012, we are moving to the app model. We are again using the MDT Db, and for the "Install applications according to dynamic variable list", I have specified the base variable as "APPS". But when it runs the install it errors with "No Env variable with specified basename APPS and suffix '01' is found. No applications installed." Where else do I need to specify this variable? I don't recall doing anything else on the SCCM2007 side to get it to work so I am a little stumped. Thanks.
