What source folder are you taking about? the DP itself or the source files that get copied to the DP.

Go over their heads, to their manager. This site is clearly not working and therefore it is their problem to solve.

If this is just after you had you site restored then I would go back to CSS and tell them it still not right. Making sure that you get inventory and deploying both SU and App/packages is a fundamental task of CM12. If this was nto tested after the restore then IMO the job is not done yet.

Nope, there is no license need for DPs.

Anything can be done if you write the script to do it.

What wrong with the built-in query for that? It can be use to create a collection.

The answer is always going to be it depends.. for a CM Lab you will need. 1 VM for your DC 1 VM for your CM12 server 1 VM for your test client This means, you really need ~13 GB of RAM just for your VMs. if you can give 1 core to each VM that should be enough. As with any lab the bigger the better.

First off, Why does it matter? Secondly, none of my Hyper-v VMs has a floppy drive. Not unless I enable it.

Simply create DP at each location, when setup correctly this is exactly what they are for. Don't forget to "protect" them.

You need lots of RAM and SSD are really nice to for this type of thing. But honestly why not use VPN or Direct access to access a real lab?

There is no tool that can do this. I'm sure that if you look there are some that MIGHT be able to tell you this for files and shares but not everything. You will need to do that manually.

That is the wrong directory, it should be something like "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\Common7\IDE\PrivateAssemblies"

If I remember right all the pre-req for IE are SU, So why not deployment them via SU method?

You can't.. You can only have one active session on Workstation.

Why don't you just look for FixName: Nov15FixVer1.0, instead? I know that I'm getting my first coffee, but IMO it would make more sense to Create REG keys like. HKLM\Software\<companyname>\Updates\Nov15FixVer1.0 then have keys under it. The only way to do wild cards like this is to use a script to detect if the SU is applied or not.

So What is the failed state? why do you care about this reg key?

It would not be populated by the CU, instead it would be populated by the AI sync point

ok, I will bite, why do you want to do this?

Is if the Reg keys are NOT added when you execute the batch file via PSExec then you need to fix that before looking at CM12.

Sadly, you didn't answer any of my questions and therefore no one can help you.

1) Don't try, the CM DS name is not a valid DS. Only use the DS once you upload you report to SSRS site. Then it works. 2) When you followed this blog post http://www.enhansoft.com/blog/how-to-preview-sccm-2012-r2-ssrs-reports-in-bids ; exactly which directly did you place the dll in?

What are the reg key for this? what error are you getting? Have you tested this batchfile using PSEXEC?

You a Task Sequence to do it at once..

What permissions have you set on SSRS?

I use this trick. http://www.enhansoft.com/blog/invalid-object-name-in-sql-server-management-studio-ssms ;-)
