I just upgraded my SCCM environment to 2012 R2 SP1 CU2, and also upgraded ADK 8.1 to ADK 10, created new Boot Image/Deployed, and then MDT 2013 to MDT 2013 Update 2. My question is, under Packages, I still see the old MDT 2013 Settings and Toolkit Files in place, so do I need to create new MDT 2013 Update 2 Settings and Tollkit File Packages now or can I still use the existing Package? If I don't create new package, what will happen? I'm testing OSD with old MDT 2013 TS now and all seems to be working.. Please advise, thanks!

Thank you for the reply! I have seen a few post with ADK 10, and suggestion was to use the original ADK, didn't know that's still the case. I'll keep that in mind

Here's my current setup: SCCM 2012 R2 SP1 with MDT 2013 and ADK 8.1, using UDI for task sequence. I would like to upgrade to SCCM 1511 with MDT 2013 Update 2, with ADK 10. In what sequence should I go to achieve this? 1. Uninstall ADK 8.1 and install ADK 10? 2. Install SCCM 1511 in-place upgrade 3. Install MDT 2013 Update 2? 4. Recreate Task Sequence with MDT 2013 Update 2, UDT task sequences? Thanks!

Thanks for the suggestion, I followed your instruction and created DP Groups for the site, and then put the collections "Capture User Data" and "Restore User Data" into the group. Under Members tab, I assigned the DP for that site underneath. I then tried to run the Capture User Data TS from that site, and it still randomly pick DP / SMP to store the data, so this did not work for me. I have opened up a support case with Microsoft and see what they come up with. I'll update when I have the answer. Thanks!

The machine in question is in 3 collections. "Computers with Client Installed", "Capture User Data", and "Restore User Data". I don't have Distribution Point Groups setup, and there are no collections for Distribution Points. Do you mean Boundaries and Boundary Groups? There are no overlaps I can see, verified many times. I have setup Boundary Groups with AD Sites and Subnets, and the proper Site System Server assigned for the Boundary Group. I can see the SMSTS Logs that the client computer is requesting SMP List from the Management Point Server, and received 13 SMP's. But it's just randomly picking the SMP Server and create the USMT Capture Store.

We have a primary site with 13 DP and each DP has SMP setup. Boundaries and Boundary Group are setup with separate Site assignment and Content Server. The Site Assignment are setup with AD Site and IP Segments, while the Content Servers are setup with Subnet. When I tried to use USMT TS with SCCM 2012 R2 CU2, the computer will request SMP from the MP, and received 13 SMP by viewing the Log File, and it will randomly choose any one of them, instead of using the one assigned to it. I can check the property of the computer and it's showing the correct SITE, and it has already been defined in the Subnet Group. I have verified there are no overlapping of boundaries. Why does the computer still randomly choose any SMP although it already has one defined? It seems no matter what I change on the boundary/boundary group, it still receive the same 13 SMP list from MP. Is there a way to flush the list from MP? Any assistance would be appreciated.

I was able to fix my issue with this solution: http://www.windows-noob.com/forums/index.php?/topic/9527-warning-matching-processor-architecture-boot-image-0-not-found/

We are trying to setup a distribution point on a different network segment, which is located in another city. The environment is Server 2012 R2, with PXE enabled, and DHCP Server enabled. All the settings are checked on the PXE configuration tab for the DP. The distribution point setup was successful, and Server 2012 also installed WDS in the process. I also installed DHCP Server Role and configured it to provide ip address. Option 66 and Option 67 are configured in DHCP console, so it would respond to PXE request. Here is what the issue is, if Option 66 is configured with the ip of the new DP server, then PXE won't work. If I configure Option 66 and pointing to the primary SCCM server, the PXE would respond and works fine, but it's downloading the WinPE Boot Image from the server across the WAN, and it's slow. I cannot find any guide to setup DP with Server Configuration, with DHCP and WDS both installed on the same server, and also can PXE boot. Any assistance would be grateful!

Update: after waiting overnight, now the Asset Intelligence > Inventoried Software are showing up. I believe the main fix for my issue was reinstalling MP.

Update: I noticed I was getting lots of BITS errors in IIS Log, so following this suggestion: http://www.windows-noob.com/forums/index.php?/topic/4620-management-point-not-receiving-hardware-inventory-bits-error-501-iis-error/ and reinstalled my Management Point. After it was reinstalled, I can run the report now and view data from report. The Resource Explorer are also working, and I can see hardware/software information. But my Asset Intelligence > Inventoried Software are still empty. Not sure what else to check now..

I need some assistance on troubleshooting why my Inventoried Software are empty. I have done the following more than 7 days ago, and I'm still not seeing anything under my Inventoried Software, nor under my Asset Resource Explorer (Both Hardware and Software are empty). My setup: SCCM 2012 R2 installed on a Server 2012 R2 Standard OS, VM Environment, and SQL is installed on a separate server running SQL 2008 R2. 1. Enable Software Inventory in Client Settings, added Inventory these file types "*.exe, *.dll, *.pst" , schedule software inventory and file collection every 7 days. 2. Enable Hardware Inventory in Client Settings, change/enable Set Classes for "Installed Applications (64), Installed Applications (Win32Reg), Installed Executable, and Installed Software. Schedule hardware inventory schedule every 7 days. 3. Installed Asset Intelligence Synchronization point, and then enable ALL the Asset Intelligence reporting classes. Synchronization is on a schedule every 7 days. 4. Checking the InventoryAgent.log on client' computer, and the only thing related to "SMS_InstalledSoftware" is this line: Collection: Namespace = \\.\root\cimv2\sms; Query = SELECT __CLASS, __PATH, __RELPATH, ARPDisplayName, ChannelCode, ChannelID, CM_DSLID, EvidenceSource, InstallDate, InstallDirectoryValidation, InstalledLocation, InstallSource, InstallType, Language, LocalPackage, MPC, OsComponent, PackageCode, ProductID, ProductName, ProductVersion, Publisher, RegisteredUser, ServicePack, SoftwareCode, SoftwarePropertiesHash, SoftwarePropertiesHashEx, UninstallString, UpgradeCode, VersionMajor, VersionMinor FROM SMS_InstalledSoftware; Timeout = 600 secs. The Timeout = 600 secs is not normal right? I have attached my InventoryAgent.log for reference. Is there anything I can try to make it work? Thanks in advance! InventoryAgent.log

Jorgen, your explanation is I was expected. Thank you for confirming.

New to the site, very informative, hope to learn much more as I setup my first SCCM. One question I have hard time searching online for answers, is that I have setup a DP with Windows 7 Enterprise on my local network segment for testing, and created boundaries & boundary groups to use the DP for contents already, tested and working. But If I want to move this DP to a remote office, with different network segment, is it possible? We would like to sync all the contents first before we ship out the DP to the remote office, due to low bandwidth availability. What's the best way to achieve this? Thanks in advance
