Ok, will reply to only this one. So looked into it a bit, and as far as I can tell the TS will never actually know if it's on a slow or remote boundary. Instead its each package referenced by the sequence that will be considered fast or slow, and the TS advert/deployment info will determine the right run/download action.
This is why you can start a TS but run into an error, since there is no content available for whatever package being referenced. All packages are checked at the start of the TS, and as far I can tell, there is no info whether that package is local or not outside the logs. But still think you can get the MP to tell you whether the client is in a fast or slow network boundary, but that doesn't really apply to the deployment settings as packages could still be local to that boundary. I might be wrong though, a bit confused after having 2 Pints for lunch. But will check the SDK tonight and see what's possible. //A http://2pintsoftware.com From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Roland Janus Sent: den 24 januari 2015 15:04 To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [mssms] Can a Task Sequence determine if the client is in a slow boundary? That's like plan B. I would prefer to use what CM already knows, the boundaries. You would prefer that to, right? :) -Roland From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Marable, Mike Sent: Donnerstag, 22.

We have a number of slow site boundaries, all IP range based. What we have done is to export out the boundaries into a CSV with starting address, ending address and name. During the task sequence we run a script that takes the IP address of the machine and looks it up within the CSV file. If it find that its IP address falls within one of the boundaries we set a task sequence variable that we can key off of showing that it is inside a slow boundary. There may be more elegant ways of doing it but it works for us.

Does a running TS provide somewhere if it is running using a slow boundary? -Roland ********************************************************** Electronic Mail is not secure, may not be read every day, and should not be used for urgent or sensitive issues
