Hi,
If the SCCM client is installed and working as it should the client will register with the SCCM MP again and it will show up in the console again after the next heertbeat at the latest. If the Sytem discovery isn't re-creating the object it most likely means that it is not registered correctly in DNS or not turned on.
If you initiate a Heartbeat discvoery on the client in question does it show up then?

Hi,
That i correct the console can only be used to connect to a primary site or a CAS, a secondary site only holds a subset of the data a Primary site does. It sounds like you are better of moving the DP from the Primary site server to start with from the Primary site or is that already the case?

Hi,
I like to use PNPUtil which basically does the same, preloads the driver cache with the driver and imports the .inf file you select.

Hi,
No they are not removed when you remove the boundary, you can create a query with all the comptuers in the AD site and then delete all clients found. note that you should check that the AD site isn't used by any other computers, perhaps a laptop or client connecting using VPN could also have the site perhaps

Hi,
Have you configured a group policy setting to disable Automatic Updates? Like Jason describes here: it can cause unexpected reboots. http://blogs.catapultsystems.com/jsandys/archive/2010/05/28/software-updates-management-and-group-policy-for-configmgr-cont-.aspx

Hi,
Yes you can remove the screens in the UDI Wizard editor, just remember that any variables set by pages you remove you must set by yourself in the TS.
The TimeZone and Language e.t.c is read from an .xml file so it is not that easy to solve.
The domain join user and password can also be set as TS variables as described here: http://kb.matthewtrotter.com/?p=84

Hi,
I use that script as well, but you should the CollectionID and not the collectionname in the command line,
cscript AddMeToCollection.vbs <SiteServerName> <CollectionID> %_SMSTSClientIdentity% also make sure either the Network access account or if you run it as a "Run command line step using another user account" that the accounts used have the correct permissions as well. But changing the command line shoudl solve it.

Hi,
MDT adds UDI possibilities to SCCM, User Driven Installation, here are some tutorials on how to use it. http://blogs.technet.com/b/chrad/archive/2012/07/26/learning-mdt-2012-s-user-driven-installation-udi.aspx

Hi,
It is a known issue that the Windows Update step,when installing Software Updates that requires Multiple reboots are installed, the SCCM client cannot handle that and ends up in Provisioning Mode, http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2894518
If those updates are not in there I would check for any other unexpected reboots either by a script or application to start with.

Hi,
Best practice is to have UAC enabled! if you turn of UAC you also turn of Protected mode in Internet Explorer on that machine..
So best practice is without a doubt to have it enabled.

Hi,
It sounds like it could be a driver missing in the Boot Image, the computer that worked was it a different model?

Hi,
There was asite called Marektplace before but cannot find it anymore, I would Bing or Google and search for the Configuration packs you are looking for, here are some examples:
Configuration Pack for UEV
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=35595
For Configuration Manager itself
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=30710&WT.mc_id=rss_alldownloads_all
You can also use the Security Compliance manager which can generate DCM Baselines for Windows Server, Windows Client, Internet Explorer and more.. http://blogs.technet.com/b/secguide/archive/2013/02/05/secure-your-environment-with-scm-3-0.aspx

Hi,
It would depend on the query you are using, could be that you have many computers that doesn't report hardware inventory as well.
Check one of the builin reports and see how many computer they report.

Hi,
If youi build your image directly from Microsoft Update, you need to exclude Bing Bar, check out this post I wrote a while ago. http://ccmexec.com/2013/09/tips-when-building-images-with-configmgr-2012-part-2/

Hi,
Most of the right-click tools out there have a feater where yopu can simply paste the computernames from a csv file for instance and then add them to a collection. The ones from NowMicro is really good. http://www.nowmicro.com/rct/

Hi,
No there is not in the product, check out this powershell script från Adam that perhaps can solve it for you without using SCCM. https://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/scriptcenter/Send-WOL-Packet-Either-62ac1350

WSUScontent and SCCM optimize HDD space
in Configuration Manager 2012
Posted
Hi,
You explained it very well, the answer is no, you need a separate WSUS if you woule like to deploy Updates from WSUS to clients not in SCCM. You should not use the same WSUS server for anything else than SCCM as you will get unexpected behaviour from where updates are deployed and so on.
