Sorry, wasn't that clear.

We were renewing our EA and converted/upgraded the perpetual licensing to user 
based with O365 for visio and project.

I can find the exact terminology if you'd like. But we only had a handful using 
those products so it wasn't that big of a deal for us.

@Eric, "convert" ??  Do you mean, you bought new licenses, or you stepped-up or 
upgraded or some discounted trade-in deal from perpetual/per-device licenses -> 
subscription/per-user license for Visio/Project ?

Or, just that you are using the C2R form of VL instead of the MSI form of VL ?

One drawback; if you're deploying MS Project or MS Visio (MSI Based installs), 
you cannot run the CTR versions of Office.

On the plus side, the immediate feature updates are nice.

If you use Office 365 for email, skype, or other services, I think it make 
sense.

We went with full Microsoft 365 Suite with ATP and it has worked out really 
well. But yes, you go to per user licensing.

It's licensed per user rather than per computer so your users can have it on 
multiple devices.

Downside is that you can no longer legally deploy the msi installer of Office, 
only the CTR version.

RE: [mssms] Re: Do i need PXE to OSD clients that already have SCCM client?

It doesn't need to be at the top at all. You only need PXE if imaging a new 
machine or reimaging an existing machine from scratch. If you already have the 
client, no PXE needed.

When reading some of the blogs it says you need to set your NIC boot order on

reimaging a machine that is already an SCCM Client (like i discussed earlier) 
what's the need to have PXE 1st in boot order?

No, PXE is not needed for this scenario (see Mike Murray's previous reply). You 
are correct that the boot image is staged to the local system when a task 
sequence deployment is kicked off via software center. The system then reboots 
into this staged boot image.



Also, PXE is never required for OSD.

So if I have an SCCM client and i want to send OSD TS as available so user can 
kick off the rebuild, PXE is always needed?  I thought when they kicked it off 
from software center, it copied something down locally so when the machine 
reboots it "gets" to SCCM and doesn't need PXE?  I thought PXE was only needed 
for bare metal installs and not rebuilding current machine that is already SCCM 
client?



Am i wrong about this?

After the initial PXE Boot and OS file copy, it no longer uses PXE. It's the 
same process for USB media. It boots using the USB media, but after the OS 
install starts, the USB device is not needed.



You would use PXE to do the initial file copy and network connectivity. If you 
do not use PXE, then you would need a USB boot device, or some other process to 
boot the system for bare metal install of the OS.

I know its a weird question, but I'm confused in regards to OSD and PXE.  If i 
have WDS/PXE setup and I deploy OSD TS to a current SCCM client when the 
machine reboots does it do anything with PXE or are all the files copied to the 
hard drive in the background while the machine is running?  Does it uses those

Subject: Re: [mssms] RE: Spectre/Meltdown patch breaks ConfigMgr/SQL?

Based on how I 'interpreted' that tweet, it was specific regarding the SQL 
patch.  In my case, the one I would care about is SQL 16 SP1, the CU7 
(Cumulative Update 7).  ConfigMgr requires "CLR" to be enabled in order to 
function.  Additionally, the majority of environments except for a super small 
ones where they might only have ONE server with all roles--almost everyone has 
at least a MP, DP, or SUP role server elsewhere.  Depending on the 
configuration of those other servers, they likely leverage a SQL 'thing' called 
Linked Servers.  CU7 also modifies Linked server configuration.

So just wait on deploying CU7 until further information is available.  If you 
haven't yet gone to SQL 16 SP1 CU6, my understanding is that version is 
supported/acceptable to SCCM--but it obviously doesn't address the 
Spectre/Meltdown stuff.

[mssms] RE: Adding a list of users to a user collection

[Mike Murray]

FYI, it's domain\user, but you have to escape the "\" with an additional "\". 
So, domain\\user.

Subject: [mssms] Adding a list of users to a user collection

I have the Now Micro right-click tools installed, so I thought it was going to 
be as easy as dropping the list of samaccountnames in the box, but that didn't 
work.  So, I tried UPN, and that didn't work.  Then I tried putting the domain 
name in there with sam, and that didn't work.  How can I get a list of 1800 
users into a user collection without doing it manually? I was looking at the CM 
Powershell cmdlets, but the technet cmdlet reference doesn't give very good 
examples.  Is that the way I should be looking, though?  And if so, what format 
does the user name need to be in to work?

[mssms] possible to notify user more than once for software updates?

[Mike Murray]

SCCM 2012 R2 SP1.

I'm looking to add more end user notifications if software updates are 
available than the out of box options. Currently when they're available, 
there's the system tray message "changes are required...", then the final one 
when the deadline has been reached. I'd like to pop up daily reminders if they 
haven't installed the updates. Anyone doing anything like this?

We have a small number of clients on a PCI network, so they're pretty
restricted to where they can communicate. We have firewall rules allowing
communication to our management point, and Windows updates are working fine.
But Defender updates are not. I have an Endpoint Protection policy assigned
to these machines that specifies to use our server as the first update
source, but these machines keep trying to connect to some version of
*.update.microsoft.com, which gets blocked. Even then, it never tries any
other sources, even though I have them all checked (see below). I'm
attaching the WindowsUpdate.log from one of these machines. You can see
there are errors when I tries to update. There is a successful update near
the end, this is when we disconnected it from the PCI network and connected
to a regular port.

 

Any advice appreciated!

[mssms] OT: Group policy/permissions to change subdomain

[Mike Murray]

I’m hoping someone here will know. We have a test domain, let’s say 
“myschool.edu” which is a problem.

We can’t use the default dns settings.

 

We would like our workstations to consistently resolve with the dns suffix 
“ad.myschool.edu”. They don’t now use their own machine name.

We want to be able to make a policy for computers in the test domain to 
register in the subdomain in DNS and retain their domain bind.

 

We have a policy that changes the dns name to mycomputer.ad.myschool.edu and 
that immediately breaks the bind.

 

Anyone know what policy and permissions would be required? 

So far, we found an old Windows 2000 article that had the below instructions. 
Not sure if this is the way to go.

 

Our sysadmin says this adds 74 ACLs to each computer object, and is unhappy to 
proceed.

1.  Right-click the domain you want to modify, and then click Properties .
2.  Click the Security tab.
3.  Click Add , click SELF , click ADD , and then click OK . This adds the 
SELF group to the ACL.
4.  Click the Advanced button.
5.  Click SELF and then click View/Edit .
6.  Click the Properties tab.
7.  In the Apply onto box, click Computer objects .
8.  In the Permissions box, check Allow next to Write dNSHostName , and 
then click OK until you have closed the Active Directory Users and Computers 
dialog box.

Sometimes we have to delete the computer record out of ConfigMgr, then the

Thanks for the quick response. No other unknown objects other than the
default x86 and x64. The devices are not being reused. They are new, so the
computer objects are not being discovered in SCCM yet. 

 

The SMSTS log shows that the policy assignments have been successfully read.
However, there is an error in the log that states - "There are no task
sequences available to this computer.. Please ensure you have at least one
task sequence advertised to this computer. Unspecified error (Error:
80004005; Source: Windows)".

 

The Task Sequences have all worked up until just recently. I verified that
none of the task sequences are disabled and they all show valid deployments
to the "All Unknown Computers" Collection, as Available. I also verified
that the Boot Image ID is correct and associated with the task sequences.

Sounds like a policy issue.  What does the SMSTS log say?

 

Do you have any "Unknown" objects other than the default x86 and x64 ones?  

 

Are the machines in the collections you targeted the deployments to?

 

If the devices are being reused, did you verify the old objects are all
deleted?  I use a query looking for the SMBIOS GUIDs and/or MAC addresses
when I double check policy issues like this.

Subject: [mssms] SCCM Image Deployment Issues

 

Good morning, 

 

I'm having an issue with image deployments and was hoping to get some
troubleshooting advice -

 

The issue started randomly late last week. No matter the device (multiple
Laptop models and desktops), we are unable to deploy images to our clients.
We're on Current Branch of SCCM and we use MDT (Latest version). There have
been no immediate changes to our environment - SCCM, MDT, boot image files,
Task Sequences, Drivers Etc. Everything has been working perfectly fine and
nothing has been changed. Have also been using multiple ports on the same
VLAN we always use that is configured to PXE boot.

 

We can perform a PXE boot and it loads the files for winPE with reference to
the correct boot image .WIM file, then it starts initializing windows PE and
the MDT splash screen displays. At this point, the task sequences should
populate, but they never do and the system reboots and repeats the cycle. 

 

While troubleshooting:

. I hit F8 to break the sequence to verify that it's not a NIC
driver issue. It's acquiring an IP address, so I don't think it's a driver
issue. Again, we have been deploying images to all of these same laptops for
months with the same boot images, driver packages, and task sequences. I'm
guessing since it doesn't even populate and let me choose a Task Sequence
that the Task Sequences are not the issue. 

. I've tried to use the x86 and the x64 MDT boot image files

. I've reloaded the boot images and verified that they are
distributed to the DP

. I have restarted the SCCM servers

 

 

Any suggestions would be much appreciated! Thanks in advance.

I ran into this a few weeks ago.  There was a lot that needed to be done,
but once completed everything came back to normal.  I increased memory pool,
throttled the CPU (35%) so I can at least work on the server and clean
things up.  The WSUS cleanup wizard would crash all the time, but keep doing
it until it runs all the way through.  I also found that some of the scripts
for db cleanup and indexing for the WSUS DB worked well.  Also, if you are
adding a bunch of new systems like I was, the scans was killing the server.
A combination of all of these things were causing problems. Also, check your
event viewer log files to see if the services in the WSUS app pool are
failing.  This was happening to me and my systems we always trying to scan
which also was a contributing factor to performance issues. 

 

Good luck with this, I took me about 3 days to get everything back to
normal.  Reach out to me directly if you need any help.

Hello,

 

CM2012 R2 SP1 (yes, we're upgrading soon)

 

Our MP that hosts WSUS is really taking a performance hit lately. RAM was
running almost 100% constantly at one point, we were able to add more RAM
and dedicate a chunk of it to the WSUS pool in IIS. Now the CPU is pegging.
It's all the WSUS pool in IIS. I tried limiting the CPU usage setting, but
it's still running really high.

 

I would like to know if some has a definitive guide for cleaning up the WSUS
DB and possibly reindexing it to hopefully clear up some of these issues? I
see a lot of results in Google, and I want to play this very safe.

 

TIA!

Not sure why this is happen, since I updated SCCM to 1702.

 

When Applications are included, some install - many do not and causes the
Task Sequence to reboot and then boot into windows - not continuing the rest
of the Task Sequence.

 

I removed the Application installs and it completes the image, bitlockers
the drive. Can't seem to resolve this issue. 

I checked the Network Account Settings - the service account exists and has
the necessary privileges. 

These applications all worked fine prior to 1702 - so the configuration is
correct and they are allowed in the Task Sequence. I triple checked that.

The driver may or may not be old. The problem is that driver injection into
boot images comes from the original location that you imported the drivers
from and **not** the package source location. Many folks mistakenly delete
the files they originally imported the drivers from thinking that they are
no longer needed and thus essentially shoot themselves in the foot. You only
recourse here is to restore the drivers exactly as they were in the
locations noted or to remove the drivers from the boot image.

It’s happening during the day (business hours). He was sitting at the computer 
watching the updates download and install. Deployment does not ignore 
maintenance windows.

 

Thanks,

 

Mike

‘but is installing during the weekday’..

Is that daytime or at night?

I can see some ‘business hours’-related windows in your logfile (Type=6), so is 
that your trouble?

 

And, are your deployments set to ignore maintenance windows if deadlines are 
set anyway?

There are some right-click tools which make it easier to see the MW data.

But finally, what is the end-user seeing (and when), and how does that 
correlate with the actual actions logfiles (did the user allow an action?)(was 
it a past-due scenario?)

CM2012 – I have a client that does not seem to be respecting its maintenance 
windows. I’m including as much info as I can find. It should only install 
updates every Saturday & Sunday between 2:50a-5:40a, but is installing during 
the weekday. The ConfigMgr report shows it has the right windows, but the log 
seems to indicate something else.

since it's erroring at (28), I'm guessing it's whining about line 28.  Line 28 
is this:

[SMS_Report(TRUE)] String DellBIOSConfig3.2_Wed_LAN;

 

so my guess is that it hates something about that.  It could be the period.  It 
could be the multiple _  (I don't know.

 

Change it in your configuration.mof to be something else, like... 
DellBIOSConfig3  (just has to be different, and if YOU know what it is, it's 
easy enough in reports to say 

select DellBiosConfig30 as 'Dell Bios Config 3.2 Wed LAN' )

 

and then of course change it in the to-be-imported to match; and it'll probably 
work fine.

[mssms] SCCM2012 SP1 new install fails on SQL2012 SP1?

[Mike Murray]

I downloaded SQL and SCCM from the MVLS site today to begin an new install. I 
noticed that the version of SQL included in System Center 2012 with SP1 
downloads is SQL Standard 2012 SP1. I happily installed it on a new Windows 
Server 2012 box and then began to install SCCM.  When I went to install SCCM, I 
got as far as pointing to the database when I got an error indicating my 
version of SQL was unsupported - essentially that I needed to be running SQL 
2012 CU2 or later. Has anyone else seen this? Or know a good work around?

Thanks,

I figured out the issue - even though the text in multiple dialog boxes stated 
that it was SQL Server 2012 SP1 that was installing, the actual file version 
number indicated it was RTM Downloaded and installed the SP and will try 
again.
