Hi All,
I'm currently having a few issues with my SCCM infrastructure.
Asa little background, I have a main site site server which runs MP, DP, Asset Intelligence, WSUS, OSD, PXE, a dedicated SQL server for Reporting and 5 DP's
I upgrade to SP1 in June 2013 and started to deploy PKI certificates in order to activate https communication only eraly in October. Everything was running fine but I rolled back from https only communication when I noticed that OSD was not working anymore.
A few weeks later, I noticed that newly installed or restaged machines where having an incorrect Software Center content, after a lot of log digging I found different kind of errors but basically the new clients can't retrieve completely their Machine Policy. In the end, clients show Packages and TS deployed to a collection they are members of but have a hard time with Applications, They even display Applications that are no longer available to them. Not that this doesn't impacte machines on which I'm reinstalling the client from the console
for now, the only workaround I have is to delete a deployment and to recreate it on this big collection (which contains all laptops and desktop from the company, +/-800 machines). Nevertheless, when I deploy a new machine, the same workaround needs to be applied.
My guess is that this is linked to my PKI certificates installation and that my rollback didn't work properly. Based on forum searches, I'm thinking to remove the MP role from my main server but I'm a bit affraid of doing so. I've already done similar things with Distribution Points and Reporting roles without any issues.
According to you, should I fear this operation?
If some logs details are of interest, I can post them but rather keep this post clear until needed.
Thanks for your help,
Fed
