Help with troubleshooting applications not installing during OSD?
By ReticentRobot,

I'm attempting to install the vmWare Horizon View client during OSD for setting up a Windows based thin client; however, I can't seem to get it working and I'm not sure what else to do to attempt to troubleshoot it.
I've tried double checking that the network access account is set in software distribution configuration and that the account has the appropriate permissions on the network location where the files are located, and I can successfully install the program with a deployment using S
Windows 10 - Prevent Windoys Update Agent from going on Internet

By syparon,
Gents,
We use SCCM in our environment.
When we uninstall the SUP, the local policy pointing to the SUP is deleted on all machines.
In this case, We would like to prevents the Windows Update Agents from going on the internet and applying the new feature update.
I already observed that some GPO cannot be use in parallel with SCCM (like "Do not connect to any Windows Update Internet locations")
Do you now if this is possible and how can I configure this ?
How can I upgrade to System Center Configuration Manager (Current Branch) version 1706

By anyweb,

In a previous post you used PowerShell scripts to quickly install System Center Configuration Manager (Current Branch) version 1702. As of today (2017/7/29) System Center Configuration Manager (Current Branch) version 1702 is still the current baseline for the Current Branch releases. This post will focus on upgrading from one baseline version to the new release.

There are two main branches (of Configuration Manager) available, Current Branch and
SCCM 2016 Core based ML help
By hooligan88,
Hi Experts,
Looking for some help to understand a rather tricky topic. This has been my understanding so far:
Core-based licensing
System Center 2016 Standard and Datacenter Server MLs are Core-based licenses. A Server ML Core license must be assigned to each physical core in the server, with a minimum of 8 Core licenses per processor, and a minimum of 16 Core

Cloud Management Gateway
By tiandu,
I have a few questions about Cloud Management Gateway; If I implement it, do I have to implement HTTPS on my Management Point too? And if so, just to be clear, that means that all clients will only be allowed to communicate via HTTPS, including unknown PXE-booting clients? If that is the case, could I theorectically create a new server with a Management Point installed, enable HTTPS only on that MP and then add the CMG component there? Would that work or is that a stupid idea? Thanks for your he
Windows as a service: Simplified and Aligned

By anyweb,
Microsoft has changed Windows As A Service and this was explained in a blog post by Michael Niehaus.
As we announced back in April, Microsoft is aligning our servicing models with twice-per-year feature update releases targeting March and September, and 18-month servicing timelines for each release. While the first fully-aligned release will occur later this year with the Windows 10 Fall Creators Update release and a corresponding Office 365 ProPlus release, we got a head start with the Wi

By mgr,
We have a scenario in our organisation where we want to map a huge lot of environment variables for specific machines. Each and every variables are unique to each machine. There are around 6000 variables which needs to be mapped to 6000 machines. Is there any way we can handle it through SCCM ?
