[mssms] Does OSDApplyOS.exe log anywhere?

I’m trying to troubleshoot some slow performance when applying the image during an OS deployment since upgrading our site to SCCM 1511. The WIM file is downloaded rapidly from the Distribution Points to the local cache, but when SCCM begins applying it to the hard drive it seems to slow way

[mssms] SCCM 1511 OSD - Applying Image Agonizingly Slow

We've recently completed upgrading our SCCM environment to 1511 (plus MDT 2013 U2 and ADK 10-RTM). I'm finding that during an OS deployment applying the image is incredibly slow. The WIM file downloads very quickly from the DP to the local SCCM cache, but when it is then applied from there it

Re: [mssms] RE: Exclude VPN computers from Task Sequence application deployment.

Daniel is right, the collections would not be able to keep pace with users roaming. Depending on how your network is set up you could put a check for the IP address at the start of your task sequence. If the client falls in the range of your VPN connected addresses you could exit out of the

You could migrate as much as possible between the two sites. We do that to move things between our development and production sites. The package sources will need to be cleaned up but you can use PowerShell to do that easily enough. I’m not positive just what can and cannot be migrated. The

We’re the same way. Legacy BIOs for us as well. We do get systems from HP that have UEFI turned on and the techs have to manually switch back to BIOs to build. Like John, we need to get rolling on supporting UEFI here soon. From: listsad...@lists.myitforum.com

Yes you can. There are a number of ways to accomplish this. You can run a simple script out of your task sequence that prompts for a computer name all the way up to a web front-end. Here are some options to get you started:

I have to second that. My request was turned down because I couldn't show any value in going. The promise/hope of adding more System Center sessions didn't justify the cost so the request was denied. Unfortunately at this point it's too late. I wish the final session catalog had been

What version of VMWare are you using? If you have the option of Windows 7 for the guest OS then you should be good. The key hardware is the NIC, which if you select Win7 as the guest OS VMWare will use a standard Intel NIC (a default driver included with Windows). You can get by without the

RE: [mssms] Vm create with desired NIC model

No. Typically a virtualization product like VMWare or Hyper-V will just have a pre-defined network card model. Usually it's some flavor of an Intel network card because often the drivers would be included in the default drivers included in the OS. So, you couldn't create a VM with a

We had to use a script to sort it out. 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
