[Sys Admin]

Since Certs are not inventory by ConfigMgr, you will not be able to query on cert templates either. 

[Sys Admin]

There are no built in inventory task for Certs and therefore no reports for this either.

Since computer doesn't generally have email address, and there is not simple way to map a user to a computer. This will not be easy. It would be easier for you to create a report to locate user by user name. Like this one. https://www.enhansoftknowledge.com/knowledge-base/locate-computers-by-username/

[Instant obsolete files in Software Inventory. Need help!]

If you think it is a bug open a support case and microsoft will fix it.

[Instant obsolete files in Software Inventory. Need help!]

First off SW inventory is NOT reliable, you should be using CI for this. 

Secondly, if your SW inventory runs for more than 4 hours it will NEVER send up update results. Yes is it very common for SW inventory to run for more than 4 hours runtime (not real time).

Third did you review the inventoryagent.log file to see how long it takes for SW? Did it complete? Are you sure?

Thanks a lot Garath!!

Yes I have been using IP address range almost everywhere in my environment.

Regards,

Shashi Dubey

So Having IP Subnet and AD boundary can cause overlapping boundaries which can casuse problems for site assignment, Why cna the AD and IP subnet boundaries at all? Why are you not use IP Ranges only? 

[Management Point issue]

Exactly what boundary type are you using IP Ranges only I hope.

Yes it's been 3 months since the rules are made

 

 

 

 

 

Have you confirmed that the Rules are collecting results on a computer by reviewing the log mtrmgr.log? Until you do this step it doesn't matter how old the rules are.

Has it been 30 days since you created those rules? That report will take time to populate. 

[How to use software control on SCCM]

When did you create your SW metering rules? if the has been under 30 days, don't expect anything useful for this report and even then you will really need to wait for 60+ days.

HI I have similar issue,

When i try to run a report tried to add the value but VALUE of the product Name is not visible. Please find the attachment,

First off that report doesn't use HW inventory. It use SW inventory. SW inventory is disabled by default as it is useless. https://www.enhansoft.com/sccm-software-inventory/

Instead use the ARP reports to see what is installed on computers.

GarthMJ, that WSUS is not my area, it's SysAdmin. I see them with a pen drive with update patches that put inside to update all other servers and workstations...

I'm DBA and we need to change SQL Server VM with our instances. For example, one instance for that WSUS with SUSDB database and other instance for SCCM instance with also SUSDB database. I want to optimize that environment. I see 2 SUSDB...  Different instances, but why? Why not just one? That's the idea

Thanks

To answer your questions directly about one or two SQL instances for WSUS. Is that it will cause conflicts between the two WSUS Servers if they share a db. Aka if some deploys an software update (SU) on WSUS, it will get installed on CM clients too (outside of CM control).  From the CM standpoint, CM will change that products and classifications existing within WSUS, including declining SU too.  Thereby stopping any WSU deployment of that SU.

You need to give more details. Pen drive of exactly data what data?

What is the other WSUS server used for, exactly?

Thanks GarthMJ,

The only problem if manage 2 WSUS services on the same domain...

So, for you, what is the best approach? My domain isn't connected to the internet.

• Forget that WSUS Server and install all updates clients from SCCM Server (WSUS inside)?
• Maintain that WSUS Server and add SCCM Server as a client for updates?
• Updates both Server from internet?

Thanks

This is very important details that was missing from your first post. 

How exactly are you updating your existing WSUS server now? 

Why exactly do you not want to use CM to deploy all SU to all computers? aka why have the second WSUS on the internal network at all?

So, GarthMJ what will be the issues if I just install WSUS feature in  SCCM Server and then, on WSUS configuration, connect to that same SUSDB database already installed for WSUS server?

 

This will not be supported and you WILL have problem when you manage WSUS outside of SCCM for non-SCCM computer. 

There is NO problem having WSUS installed on the CM server with its own clean db.

I know how to do it. anyweb I'll check you manuals, thanks

My question remains, what is the best approach? Internal WSUS or uses that WSUS Server?

Thanks

Start with a Clean WSUS server using full SQL server. 

[SCCM Installation manual]

you don't want to use an existing WSUS server. You want a fresh one that is use SQL database not WID.

[SCCM Adding Primary Site Error Connection to Central Site SQL Database]

is there a question?

You do know that you don't need a CAS unless you have 150000 computers. 

[I am unable to attach or join CAS server to an existing stand-alone primary sites server.]

It is possible, but your error clearly state that you need to contact MS support to solve this issue. If this for a test lab IMO there is no benefit to having a CAS as it just take up resources on your VM server add headache due to replication issues, etc. Those same resources could be used for other links like, clients or remote WSUS or remote SQL, etc. All of which is better use of resources than a CAS.

[I am unable to attach or join CAS server to an existing stand-alone primary sites server.]

Unless you have over 150,000 computers you don't need a CAS. If you have more than 150,000 computer then you should be contact MS support for help.

That is to be expected if multiple sites are discovering the device. It doesn't hurt anything.

WSUS setup hasn't really changed since CM12. So if you are happy with those guides go for it.
