Can SCCM delete print drivers?

$

Can SCCM remove print drivers from a deployed PC?        

I may be in the wrong community.  If so, please point me in the correct direction.

We have roughly 400 printers installed on Server 2012 R2.  We are implementing a new Windows print solution due to our 2008 R2 cluster's erratic behavior. 

We created a one node development box that is in place for now. 

When we switched from the cluster to a stand alone solution, we had about 150 drivers that became corrupted and would not print until we performed a number of steps to remove the "broken" driver package and replace the driver of the same type from our driver store by hand.

1. Select affected printer, go to local driver store to note location of the print driver files

2, Delete existing printer

3. Stop spooler

4. Delete driver files

5. Restart print spooler

6. Run GPUPDATE /FORCE to reapply the printer with a working driver.

Before we go live with our new solution we would like to remove the driver and package using SCCM if possible hoping to avoid the same situation.

Our current deployment method is using Security Groups (memberships) and separate GPOs to push the assigned printer to the proper Windows 7 32 bit OS PCs.

Any ideas?


Can No Longer Read Uninstall Keys with vbscript package run by SCCM

$

Hi, 

I've been using vbscript packages in SCCM for over a decade, and one thing I do is use the registry to determine if I need to uninstall an old program with the Value:

HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\
or
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall

Example code snip:

UnstKey = "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\{81BE0B17-563B-45D4-B198-5721E6C665CD}"
UnstVal = wshShell.RegRead(UnstKey & "\UninstallString")

If I run this manually, it works great, but all of a sudden, when I run a vbscript like this in SCCM it now returns: 
Invalid root in registry key "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\{...}\UninstallString"

I normally run everything whether or not a user is logged on as System, but I did a test, and it even fails if I run the package as the user, which really surprised me. I check permissions in registry key, and Everyone has read, System has Modify.

This code was working about a month ago. No changes to SCCM that I know. Sadly, we are still running 2007 SP2


Please help!

Creating a Distribution Point Hierarchy -- Is it possible?

$
0
0

 

Hello all,

 

 

So, here is the scenario:

 

I have one primary site and 2 secondary sites.  Envision the primary in the north half of a geographic location, one secondary in the south half of the geographic location , and another secondary in the east half of the geographic location.  Routers exists at the south secondary and the east secondary sites that connect back to the main hub at the primary site location.

 

Now, the logical thinking here was to created stand-alone distribution points in remote locations across the geographic location and add them accordingly as site systems in their respective geographic locations as per SCCM site design.  For example, the primary site would push packages to the remote locations to the north and to the secondary sites.  The secondary sites would then push the packages to the remote distibrution points that had been added to the site's site systems node in its site settings.  The secondary sites have been configured as proxy management points.

 

However, when pushing a package out, all the north DP's received the pacakge, the others failed.  Upon moving one of the site systems from the south secondary site, site servers node to the primary site, site servers node and pushing the package again, it received the package.

 

My question is do all distribution points have to be added as distribution points under the primary or can they be added as distribution points under the secondary sites in their respective site settings?  If they can, can someone please point me in the right direction to create this.  The idea here is to minimize network traffic across the entire geographic location.  We'd prefer not to engage all DPs at one time.

 

Thanks in advance!

Clients stop downloading package and have BIT.TMP files in cache

$
0

I am having an issue with package distribution to sccm clients where clients stop downloading the package without any errors or warnings. and report a waiting on contents status.

 

Initially, I noticed the issue when deploying Office 2007 to clients where I setup the advertisement for that package to start at an earlier time than the mandatory time to precache the contents.  Monitoring the advertisement status report, I noticed 10% of the clients show waiting on contents status, did random spot check, and the package folder in the cache was either there with no files just folder structure, or it had BIT.TMP files. 

The DatatransferService.log, ContentTransferManager.log, CAS, Exec, and the package/advert related log files didn't have any errors

 

On few clients, restarting the SMS Host service did the trick and triggered the download again, on others that didn't work; however, going to run advertised programs and manually selecting and running the program fixed the issue, on a third small group, reinstalling the client made it work.

 

The assumption was, the package was too big, and network hick up might have caused that to occur, or IIS on the DPs had issues and was interrupted, or the client had bad BITS install and failed downloading this large package.  Later on, I found that this occurs with every deployment, small and large, and regardless of the way the advertisement is set up.

 

Any suggestions or assistance is very appreciated

Hi All,

We are trying to deploy Lync 2013 to Windows 7 workstations that currently have Office 2013 professional installed on.

Unfortunately we arent have much luck at the moment..

The package was created using the Office customisation tool

the sccm command is set to setup.exe /adminfile updates \name.msp and also tried msiexec command line but no joy

Please can someone advise me how to achieve this Lync rollout?

Kind Regards, Enjoy the weekend!

Installing Applications using 2012 keeps failing

$

I setup system center 2012 this morning and it's mostly working, it looks like an excellent product!  I can deploy the client as well as endpoint protection.

Here is my problem.  I create a simple application to push out the Java MSI.  I then distribute the content to my distribution point and confirm it's done under the monitor page.  After that I'm deploying the application to an XP and 7 machine. It shows up in the software center but the installs keep failing (i've tried different MSIs and rebuilt it a bunch of times).  Here is the error I'm seeing on the client:

"Unable to download the software

There was a problem downloading the software" - then a bit more encouraging me to call helpdesk.

Then in the more information box I'm getting:

"The software change returned error code 0x87D00607(-2016410105)."

Any suggestions on what could be causing this?

How to get Package Name or ID from .PCK file

$

I have some old .PCK files in my despoolr.box\receive inbox folder that haven't had a date modified or accessed in over 5 years. I'm fairly positive it is safe to delete them. I'd like to know which exact packages they are for though before deleting. The naming convention of the compressed .pck files does not match up with a Package ID or anything that I can see from the SCCM console. 

How do you go about translating the .PCK file name to an actual package?

Failed to create virtual directory on the defined share or volume on distribution point : Unable to Distribute the package

Hi,

Its been two days i am unable to distribute any packages to a particular DP(wsp1app243).

Please guide me in a right direction to troubleshoot this issue.

Below is error message from the distribution manager component status messages.

Failed to create virtual directory on the defined share or volume on distribution point "["Display=\\wsp1app243\SMSDIST$\"]MSWNET:["SMS_SITE=PS1"]\\wsp1app243\SMSDIST$\".

Possible cause: Distribution Manager requires that IIS base components be installed on the local SMS Site Server in order to create the virtual directory.  Distribution Manager also requires that IIS Web Services be installed on the Distribution Point Server that needs to support Background Intelligent Transfer Service (BITS).
Solution: Verify that IIS base components are installed on the local SMS Site Server, and IIS Web Services are installed on the Distribution Point Server.

This is because branch distribution points do not support advertisements that are configured to run directly from a distribution point.

Advertisement "CEN20234" was received from site "CEN".   

The client passes any supported platform requirements and the SMS will add the advertisement's program to the list that will be displayed to users and/or run via assignment. If an advertisement is received but not displayed on a client, verify that the current time on the client is between the advertisement start and expiration times, and that the program specified in the advertisement is enabled.

SCCM Collection Query All Clients where Advertisement not successful

$

Hi

I'm trying to create a collection with a dynamic membership query.
I want only the clients on which an advertisement status is not successful.

So I can see on which clients the advertisement didn't not apply.

When I use this query, I see the clients on which the advertisement was successful:

select SMS_R_SYSTEM.ResourceID,SMS_R_SYSTEM.ResourceType,SMS_R_SYSTEM.Name,SMS_R_SYSTEM.SMSUniqueIdentifier,SMS_R_SYSTEM.ResourceDomainORWorkgroup,SMS_R_SYSTEM.Client from SMS_R_System where SMS_R_System.ResourceId in (select ResourceID from SMS_ClientAdvertisementStatus where AdvertisementID = "BMA20408"and LastStateName = "Succeeded")
So my idea was to set the != Succeeded
But then I have no clients in the collection.

Any Idea how I can solve that?

Hi,

I am deploying a package that needs the outlook should be closed prior to install. For that, we have included popup message in the vbs script(setup.vbs) file. When deploying the package via SCCM(using package deployment method), the popup message is not appearing but it is working when we run the script file manually. i have modified SCCM program setting but no luck.

Could you advise what setting needs to be changed in SCCM Program & deployment?

O365 Add or Remove entry icon missing - when Deploying Powershell script with SCCM

Hi,

I have a requirement that I need to run Powershell script to uninstall and install O365, everything goes fine, the uninstallation and installation. however, the problem part is the icon in the Add or Remove programs is missing once the O365 installation completes.

I have tested it many times manually and there was no issue with the display icon but while I target using SCCM the same script the display icon goes blank and does not show up even after a restart. the functionality and everything else seems fine

Please help how can I get it working even via SCCM

I am using the below command to target the program and all the execution settings are normal with user interactive etc (which is as per the requirement)


%SystemRoot%\sysnative\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -NoLogo -NonInteractive -NoProfile  -windowstyle hidden -File .\FileName.ps1

Could someone please help me on the above?

Copying a folder to clients using SCCM

I need to create a package to copy a folder to C:\Program Files of all Clients. Have created a package containing the required folder and a batch file with below contents:

@echo off
echo f | xcopy /i/q/H/E/Y/v *.* "C:\Program Files"

If I double click on batch file on a system, it executes successfully.

However, when run using SCCM, the package stucks while downloading into system cache and then eventually fails. Size of the package is 150 MB. And the size of package in SCCM cache of client varies from 1 MB - 50 MB.

Below is the snapshot of Execmgr logs on a client.

Installing after the Maintenance Window

I set up some maintenance window yesterday for our Software Updates in all the servers. We use SCCM2012 R2

I set up the maintenance window with the deadline at the same time of the maintenance window, so it wont be installed (i dont know if this is a good practice or its better to choose Available instead of required)

Any way, if for some reason one server miss the installation because nobody log in and install them, can be manually installed from the software center after the maintenance window?    The updates are there in the list , maintenance its over. Whats the behavior of SCCM with this scenario.
