How to create alert when software update installation fails?
By phenomenon,

I'd like to get a email when a software update installation fails so I don't have to go to deployments and look for it manually.
The existing option for an alert when client compliance falls below a percentage is useless for us, and we don't use SCOM.
A report would be OK too as long as I can somehow automate it and have it emailed to me.
All clients are shown as offline (gray icon). In bgbserver.log: SMS_NOTIFICATION_SERVER errors for ssl and sql
By psyapathy,
Hi! ?
Recently I made settings for PXE and sccm site configuration (https communication clients), these edits did not help and I returned everything back. But from that moment on, all clients turned gray and errors appeared in the logs:

ADR is failing with 0X87D20003 SQl Error
By ogeccut,
I have an ADR that failed with 0X87D20003 SQl Error.
I have found this site that has the same error, and its related to a deleted collection or missing collection.

Client shows offline
By Ranjithckm7,
Hi Team, I have been facing an strange issue. After the machine built by OSD TS, client isn't visible as online in Console and I don't think client is getting policies applied. Validated Firewall ports (80,443,10123) and all are fine.
Any clue or troubleshoot approach would be much appreciated.
I have attached policyagent.log.
Note: To test this tried to install a client on Site Server using clientpush, it installed and shows as online and all the configurations getting applied.
Task Sequence Recovery - Config Manager 2006
By Classiccor,
So, In my infinite (lack of) wisdom, I managed to accidentally delete my primary Task Sequence for my Windows 10 deployment. My server is backed up daily by a 3rd party off site tool.
Now I am aware that MDT would have the task sequences in an alternative folder and you can simply create a new task sequence and replace the unattend.xml and TS.xml to restore your task sequence. Is there a similar location or trick I can use to restore my task sequence?

By lalajee,
Hi,
I'm using an action custom script to run a Powershell script to check for a few things before running the feature upgrade on a machine but even the machine is not compliant it still running the upgrade.
for example, I have this code in preinstall.cmd/preinstall.ps1
if(-not (Test-path $path))
{
write-error "Stop"
exit 1
}
this should stop the upgrade but its not happening.
Does anyone know how I can stop the upgrade if it doesnt meet my preinstall check
