RE: [mssms] Duplicate Distribution Points Removal Steps Below:

[Dwayne]

Never got a response back so, I thought I’d share how I removed the Duplicate 
Distribution Points from our SCCM 2012 R2 environment.. I had a total of 4 
duplicates out of over 166 branch DP’s. 
 To get a quick tally of total count of Dup’s and the ID’s you may have you can 
quickly run:  
 
Select ID,
Count (*) TotalCount
From
V_DistributionPointInfoBase
Group By Id
Having Count (*) >1
Order by Count (*) Desc
 
 
 
Removing Duplicate Distribution Points from SCCM 2012/SQL DB
Confirm duplicate exist in SQL DB by running query in SQL Management Studio 
against  SCCM   
select * from sc_address Order by DestinationSiteCode
 
Search for your Server Name, if duplicate exist, you will see 2 rows for that 
server.
Then proceed to do the following if Duplicate exists: 
**NOTE** No need to remove content from DP if it already exist. **
1)  Remove “Distribution Point” Role from Branch Server that’s showing a 
Duplicate under “Administration >  Servers & Site Systems Roles”
2)  Remove “Site System” Role the same as noted in step 1.
3)  Run Primary Site Back up at this step.  Remote onto Primary and 
manually start “SMS_Site_Bkup” Service
4)  Pull up and monitor Bkup log on Primary. SMSdbMon.log. and wait till it 
completes.. Last line in log will say services stopped.
Now from SQL Studio run : 
delete from sc_address where destinationsitecode like '%SERVERNAME%'
 
Recheck that duplicate rows are now gone by re-running the original select 
statement but just check for the Servername only.. it should be gone: 
 
select * from sc_address where DestinationSiteCode like '%SERVERNAME%'
 
Once confirmed Duplicate is gone, Re-add DP site Role in SCCM console.. Wait 10 
minutes before adding DP Group association back..
DONE  !

RE: [mssms] DBAs say no to WMF 3.0 upgrade on clustered SQL, upgrading SCCM to SP1

[Trevor Sullivan]

Ivan,

 

To the best of my knowledge, there is no prerequisite to have any version of 
Windows Management Framework Core installed, in order to deploy the ConfigMgr 
2012 SP1 client agent. For example, Windows XP systems with Service Pack 3 does 
not implicitly have any version of WMF installed, but still supports the 
ConfigMgr 2012 SP1 client, right?

 

Cheers,

Trevor Sullivan

Hi Trevor,

 

I was typing fast.  My concern is will the SCCM 2012 SP1 site upgrade not work 
without WMF 3.0 on the SQL cluster?

 

Thanks.

Ivan,

 

The risk is that, on ConfigMgr 2012 RTM (no Service Pack), that upgrading to 
Windows Management Framework Core 3.0 would cause ccmeval.exe to break WMI and 
the ConfigMgr client. There are some workarounds for this, but I would just 
hold off on deploying WMF 3.0 until after you’ve performed the SP1 upgrade on 
all of your clients.

Well, I don't have them in CM12 either.  In our CM07 site, this is what the 
views are:
v_SiteRoamingBoundary_IPSubnet
  select SiteCode, IPSubnet, DownloadExecute, DisplayName from 
dbo.RoamingBoundaryIPSubnet

v_SiteBoundary_IPSubnet
 select SiteCode, IPSubnet from dbo.SiteBoundaryIPSubnet

v_SiteRoamingBoundary_IPRange
 select SiteCode, StartingIP, EndingIP, DownloadExecute, DisplayName from 
dbo.RoamingBoundaryIPRange

Note, I do NOT have any tables called dbo.RoamingBoundaryIPRange, nor 
SiteBoundaryIPSubnet, nor RoamingBoundaryIPSubnet in CM12… so the view 
definitions from CM07 likely aren’t as useful as you think they may be.

I think what you’ll want to look at is what’s inside dbo.BoundaryEx

select * from boundaryEx

I’m not sure what you were doing/had done where those views existed for you; 
but at least for 3 environments now… they don’t exist (in CM12).

RE: [mssms] Differences between Server 2008 and Server 2012

[Bruce Hethcote]

They would be integers if we had evolved (or were created, so we can be 
all-inclusive here) where we had 16 fingers on each hand and used base 32 as 
our numbering system.  In that case:

server2008 = 1001517078347784
server2012 = 1001517078347810

Thus, the difference is really -26 (or -q)

Mike,

"Server2008" and "Server2012" are strings, not integers. Therefore, you cannot 
perform mathematical operations on them without first transforming them into 
something different (eg. an array of Bytes).

Besides, even if you were to assume that he wanted the difference between 
[Int32]2008 and [Int32]2012, the term "difference" implies subtraction, in the 
context of mathematics. Because the smaller number came before the larger

We are rolling SP1 no CU tonight to workstations, same to servers Sunday then 
upgrading to CU3 and enabling Automatic Client Upgrade that day as well.

We told our users not to expect stability until CU 3 is deployed.

Is it that bad without it?  We don't use OSD.

Don't forget to tick that box when doing the upgrade. I believe there ticked by

[mssms] security scope for software update groups generated by an ADR

[Krueger, Jeff]

When an ADR runs and creates a new software update group that group is set to 
the default security scope, we have a group responsible for deploying and 
monitoring software updates and we would like to limit their scope to only show 
what they need deploy/monitor.  I can change the security scope on the SUG 
after the rule runs, but that would be a manual process for me to do every 
month.  Anyone have suggestion on automatically changing the security scope on 
update groups that are generated automatically?

Correct, it will only work to upgrade to SP1, or R2, not the CU's in between.

That one bit me as well. I used SCUP to deploy the CU with no issues.

I always ran the built in Asset Intelligence reports, but you have to plan 
ahead to enable the feature.

 

They don’t work well for accuracy, but for reporting Microsoft licenses to 
Microsoft, as long as they are inaccurate in your favor, hey, you’re using a 
Microsoft product so they can’t complain.

 

We recently purchased a normalization suite, Provance.  I have no feedback 
except that Procurement won’t be asking me for licensing reports anymore, it’s 
on their side of the fence now.  It uses SCCM data.

 

I have an Office SQL query that I stole from Marcum and edited a bit.  It 
essentially already has the list of odd product names figured in.  Since he’s 
in the thread, let’s see if he has a later version of that report otherwise 
I’ll shoot you my revision.

I have been asked to provide a list of software for Microsoft True-up. I don’t 
have any custom reports, I am just running the basic report on all software 
then finding the typical (Visio and Project).

 

I have 2 issues that I am wondering how most admins deal with this.

 

1.   Old data – if the software was installed on a machine and has been 
repurposed or decommissioned the data is still In the data base, so how to you 
filter out what is really accurate and what is old data?

2.   Microsoft feels the need to name the same product a few different ways 
(Microsoft Office Visio 2010, Microsoft Visio 2010) but it seems the machines 
are the same in both reports, which tells me it’s just a naming thing.

 

I think my best interest is maybe finding a custom report that will give me 
this info.

 

So I ask, how do you deal with software true-up reports?

 

Thanks,

Come on in! The waters fine.

We migrated to SCCM 2012 SP1 CU3 in October and it's running fine for us. We 
have 15,000+ Windows workstation and server clients.

I always ran the built in Asset Intelligence reports, but you have to plan 
ahead to enable the feature.

They don't work well for accuracy, but for reporting Microsoft licenses to 
Microsoft, as long as they are inaccurate in your favor, hey, you're using a 
Microsoft product so they can't complain.

We recently purchased a normalization suite, Provance.  I have no feedback 
except that Procurement won't be asking me for licensing reports anymore, it's 
on their side of the fence now.  It uses SCCM data.

I have an Office SQL query that I stole from Marcum and edited a bit.  It 
essentially already has the list of odd product names figured in.  Since he's 
in the thread, let's see if he has a later version of that report otherwise 
I'll shoot you my revision.

I think my best interest is maybe finding a custom report that will give me 
this info.

So I ask, how do you deal with software true-up reports?

Thanks,

Kevin Johnston

No it is no need for SWM but it is used by SWM to create the “Automatic rules”, 
I recommend turn off both the Shortcut AI data and the auto create SWM rules as 
they are just messy.

The public version of the Powershell Right Click Tools currently triggers a 
delta (not a full) inventory update.  The new ones will give you an option, but 
I don’t know when the public beta will be out.

 

On the devices where you triggered a full inventory, did the hardware inventory 
successfully update?  If so, go ahead and try that on those other 20 devices.  
If not, trace it through and figure out where it failed.

 

If it was because of exceeding the max MIF size, modify the registry key that 
Garth pointed out (or reduce the size of what you are inventorying like I 
pointed out).

After running the 2 commands, i was able to see it running a full hardware 
inventory.

 

Will I need to perform this delete on those other clients?

Which right click tools are you using?

 

Try doing it from the command line with these two command lines:

 

WMIC /namespace:\\root\ccm\invagt path inventoryActionStatus where 
InventoryActionID="{----0001}" DELETE /NOINTERACTIVE

 

WMIC /namespace:\\root\ccm path sms_client CALL TriggerSchedule 
"{----0001}" /NOINTERACTIVE

Any ideas on what the issue could be or best way to resolve?  Would deleting 
the record from the site server resolve?
