I went to modify my unknown systems collection today to add the OSDComputername variable to it and the ability to add new variables is greyed out. I am the only user on this configmgr server and I am a full admin so it isn't a permissions issue unless it is something with out of the box permissions.
ConfigMGR 2012 SP1 beta running on:
Server 2012 RTM
SQL Server 2012 CU2 (remote)
the server is working fine, just this one odd thing I noticed.

AdminStudio 11 is the best for this. I don't think Wise is even making package studio anymore. The process sometimes is very straight forward and it is just a matter of building a VM, installing your conversion studio, then monitoring the install. Other times it is a lot more involved and requires going into the package framework after it is built and modifying things.

How advanced do you want your task sequences?
For instance my Task Sequences are very WMI query heavy, this way I can cut down on a task sequence for every different type of configuration or machine out there (I'm not talking apps, more like 32-bit Windows XP, 32-bit Windows 7, workgroup machine, domain machine). I have 4 task sequences in my environment and I am always trying to find a way to make them more simple and easier for people out there. If I could get down to 1 task sequence that asks for 1 or 2 variables then images the machine from there that is truly the magic of MDT ZeroTouch deployments. I have not messed much with UDI though, so I can't speak to the benefits of that.
-
If you create a MDT task sequence it will recreate this for you. It is basically nothing more than a package pointing to the client install files on your server and then using CCMSetup.exe with the parameters you specify in the OSD TS, or program.
-
SSRS is not working for me in my instance.
-
not in the console, from what I remember when I asked this on connect was there would be a way to either leverage the SDK or WMI on the machine to set these.
-
It just ran fine on my site. I have no special power management schemes assigned other than high performance and power saving.
-
Can you take a screen shot of your Task Sequence and post it here? Also check the reports to see if the client uploaded the failure to the management point.

Where can i find smsts.log ??
And the system i can't see if they get a ip adress. I think not in sccm 2007 i had it before but i load drivers in the boot image and it works but in sccm 2012 it won't work?
i have installed windows pe 3.0
Aik windows 7
Greet
It will be in X:\Windows\Temp before you partition and deploy an OS to a computer. Make sure you have command prompt enabled on your boot image.

Thats right...
Forefront Endpoint Protection 2012 Beta
/SaiTech
Just installed this on my 2012 Site. I am impressed with it. I used SEP with Altiris a little while back and liked that. Though SEP has gone downhill in the past few years. SEP doesn't catch any of the real nasty malware out there like the fake anti-virus ones. I can't wait to play with FEP a little more and see how that stacks up compared to Eset Smart Security which is what I was using.

Hello!
I'm new to Configuration Manager and have just installed 2012 Beta2
I have no idea on how to do this. Can anyone please give some more input?
Some examples from people who have successfully used wsname.exe and maybe screendumps would be nice :-)
Give me a little time I can do this for you. I did this back with beta 1 and it worked great.

Hallo Everybody,
I have a problem in my SCCM 2012 Beta 2 Primary Site, since days i have this Error (Attached File also):

Did anyone have an idea??
Thanks
This usually happens like the error says when something in the database is moved or deleted and the console isn't refreshed. If you haven't changed anything with your site I would go to the ConfigMGR 2012 beta 2 connect site and report this as a bug. The folks at MS might be better suited to help track down this bug/error.

What does the SMSTS log say? You said you created a package from the MSI? So that would give you the per-system unattended and whatnot correct? You shouldn't create the package using that because the commands for installing a client in a TS are't going to work if you created the package by importing the MSI. Create a package from definition is correct but you want to use the built in definition for the Client not one created from importing the MSI.

I have set up Native Mode for SCCM 2007 multiple times with no issues. However for the life of me I can't get Clients to communicate over HTTPS to the MP. I know with 2012 I don't need a site signing cert anymore, so that is one headache out of the way.
I have my MP set to use HTTPS and the server certificate that was issued by my CA through group policy. Clients use their certificates issued the same way. Everything seems fine, but I can't get the clients to pull policy. I get the following error "Authority xxx does not have an associated policy agent configuration". The bindings on the MP are set correctly. The only thing that I can think of is that since SSRS is on the same server that might be conflicting with it some how.
Any ideas where to go or what logs to check? I don't see any errors in the component config, and I don't see anything in the logs that point to a PKI failure.
-
set a task sequence variable compname (OSDComputername would work but we don't have MDT yet in SCCM 2012) to "" then just use that variable in a program like wsname and run a command line TS step using that package.

I am having trouble with the last step of the 2012 beta 2 guide (http://www.windows-noob.com/forums/index.php?/topic/3676-using-vnext-beta2-in-a-lab-part-2-configuration/), the guide says that after adding in a boundary and then adding that to a boundary group I should be able to hit refresh and my AD sites will populate however this does not happen for me (no AD sites populate). I have set the IP address range to 10.0.0.10 - 10.0.0.100 and my AD site subnet is set to 10.0.0.0/24, I have disabled the firewall, restarted both VM's (vmware workstation 7.1.4 build 385536) and still no luck.
My setup
SCCM 2012 beta 2 server
IP address 10.0.0.2/24
Windows 2008 R2 SP1 + some patch's
MSSQL 2008 SP1 + CU10 with firewall rules added.
AD server
IP address 10.0.0.1/24
Windows 2008 R2 SP1 + some patch's (same one's at sccm server)
Any ideas on what might be causing this or where I could find some log files that might shed some light on this problem?
Thanks
sounds more like an AD problem than a SCCM one. Do you have that subnet in the site?

i got error:1 : Unsupported SQL Version 10.0.2531.0
I installed SQL Server 2008 and SP 1
What to do now?
You Need SQL Server 2008 SP1 and SP1 CU10
So unless you have your QFE and CU built into your SQL deployment point you need to install SQL 2008 RTM, SQL 2008 SP1, SQL 2008 SP1 CU10. Hopefully the next beta or CTP include support for SQL 2008 R2 and SQL 2008 SP2.

There is going to be a FEP 2012 I believe. I saw it as part of the System Center 2012 Roadmap. Only details I can find on it now is a privacy statement.

With SCCM v.Next 2012 I deploy Windows 7 to my computers and let them join the domain. But in the deployment they get a random name chosen by SCCM. I want names like this PC01, PC02, PC03, .....
How I can make this happen?
This is a loaded question
There are a lot of ways to do it. The way I use is to put a step in the task sequence to run an app called wsname.exe to rename the computer BEFORE it joins the domain. Once MDT and COnfigMGR 2012 work together then you can use MDT variables like OSDComputerName to query WMI for a SN# or use a task sequence variable.
Like I said there are a ton of ways to do it. Your best bet is to rename the computer before joining the domain because it is less of a headache because once the machine is joined to the domain you have to worry about permissions, the task sequence failing because the object exists, and things like that.

Thanks HSChronic,
There it is...
/SaiTech
Alternatively you can go to the Administration view and look at the Distribution points category right click the DP you think it is on and there will be a content tab on there that will let you see what packages are on there.
-
I have boundary groups assigned to the DP, but it is still saying it isn't protected. Do I need to make it HTTPS? The SCCM 2012 documentation being not completed yet doesn't help either.
-
HI,
Where can I see if I have add an Distribution Point to a package?
Ok I can add one and see if I have missed it..
/SaiTech
right click on the package/application and then you will see a tab called Content Locations. This will list the DPs the content is on.
-
Looks like it didn't make this beta. I know that and SQL Server 2008 R2 were things that I wanted. Since it took them almost a year to totally rewrite the product I am thinking beta 3 or whatever the next release is.
-
it has been moved to the Distribution Point Role Properties along with Multicast.
SCCM 2012 SP1 beta collection variables greyed out
in Configuration Manager 2012

Ah thanks. Now that leaves me with finding a way to use custom names since with standard names I can just use customsettings.ini
