  1. Hello, if there are 2 technicians doing a deployment Windows 10 simultaneously with Windows Deployment Services (WDS) and they use the same computername to join Domain. How can WDS detect that this name is already in use, when they are working at the same time and and they plan to use the same name? Thanks.
  2. Hello all. During OSD my task sequence is failing with error code 0x80004005 at the very end of "Apply Operating System". The attached smsts.log (smtsprobook) seems to indicate something funny going on with partitions? Test Systems: 1. HP Prodesk 400 G3 SFF 2. HP Probook 430 G3 History: I have created a task sequence for deploying Windows 7 Enterprise X64 w/ SP1. This task sequence works great for the HP Prodesk. No issues at all. Task Sequence Steps (in order): Capture Windows Settings Capture Network Settings Install Operating System Restart in Windows PE Format and Partition Disk Apply Operating System Apply Windows Settings The rest doesn't really matter since the task sequence is failing at "Apply Operating System" (On the HP Probook 430 G3) This issue only occurs on the Probook (laptop) and NOT the Prodesk (desktop). The way we are managing OSD here at my company is to have a "Golden" Task Sequence, then just copy that same task sequence for as many different model of systems we have and insert the corresponding driver package as well as rename the task sequence for whatever new model we discover we have or receive. So we received our new shipment of Probooks (laptops) and I did what I always do when we get a new model. I grabbed the Windows 7 drivers for it (Note: These systems come with Windows 10 installed. Our image is Windows 7 Enterprise x64 SP1.) and created/copied a task sequence for the new model by simply switching out whatever driver package was in the task sequence that I just copied with the correct package for that model (a lot of this is irrelevant since again, the task sequence is failing at "Apply Operating System" before it even tries to install drivers.) Things I Have Done: Made sure all content called for in the task sequence is on the DP Deployed the TS as Available (PXE,Media,Blah blah) to All Unknown Computers Read through the provided smsts.log and could not make sense of it. Seems error 0x80004005 is a "beat around the bush" error Created a task sequence from scratch then tested. Still same issue at the same place Thought maybe its an issue with my .wim but I dont think so as this has worked on some of our other models tested Came here for help I am at a total loss as of where to start to troubleshoot this error. Most of the info you will need to help asses the issue is probably contained in the log(CMTrace it). Please let me know of anything I left out that could help. Thank you! smtsprobook
  3. Hello, I am trying to deploy CMTrace as part of the TS (SCCM 2012 SP1, no MDT integration) and also set it as default log viewer. This is my powershell script: $RelativePath = (split-path $SCRIPT:MyInvocation.MyCommand.Path -parent)+"\" Copy-Item -Path $RelativePath"CMTrace.exe" -Destination "c:\temp\" -Force xcopy "c:\temp\CMtrace.exe" "c:\windows\System32" /y xcopy "c:\temp\CMtrace.exe" "c:\windows\SYSWOW64" /y $CMtraceKey = "HKCU:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Trace32" Set-ItemProperty -Path $CMtraceKey -Name "Register File Types" -Value 00000000 $Parameters = "assoc .log=logfile" cmd.exe /c $Parameters The xcopy commands do not work for some reason, and smsts log doesn't show me anything. Can somebody advise on why the copy commands do not work and how can I apply the HKCU key properly ? Thanks
  4. I am having an issue with imaging the surface pro 7+ everything goes through I apply the driver package which works for some I found once completed the touch screen doesn't respond I have to connect a keyboard and mouse anyone else having this issue?
  5. hello, I have a command line task sequence that creates a directory, copy the hokey software to the pc and then runs the exe. I have tested this command line on the actually pc by navigating to the directory using command prompt and running the below command and all works fine. The first two parts work fine but the last part just hangs on the users machine, any tips ? the command line i have in the task sequence is: cmd.exe "c:\drivers\hotkey\setup.exe" /SP- /VERYSILENT /NORESTART /SUPPRESSMSGBOXES any help would be appreciated
  6. I am new to SCCM and my agent and most other things are set to default. I can install an app from software center but if i schedule it to deploy at 9:30 am and the installation is asap or 9:40 the installation just randomly installs when ever. sometimes hours later. I don't have a maintenance window setup for my collections. I am trying this with installing chrome. Any Help would be appreciated.
  7. Just tested this thing and I'm kind of thrilled.. so I wanted to deploy cmtrace as an CM12 application, I did it with the quick-and-dirty method. So, I created a new application, and for the deployment type I checked script and the actual install program was as follows xcopy.exe ".\*.*" "%windir%\system32" /D /E /C /I /Q /H /R /Y /S And the uninstall program was as follows del.exe %windir%\system32\cmtrace.exe Detection method was of course checking the presence of cmtrace in %windir%\system32. The niceness about this is, that now I can simply run cmtrace on any computer in the network and I was thinking that the new app-model is way better than the old package deployment, what do you guys think? Has anyone else thought about deploying software like this? I know it would be better to handle it by doing a script that installs the cmtrace to %programfiles% and so on...
  8. Hi all, I've tried and failed miserably! to work out how to do this using the Report Builder. Could anyone possibly help with creating an SQL query to create a deployment report which includes the Administrative Category? Example: Application Name, Application Administrative Category, Target Collection, Success, In Progress, Fail, Requirements not met, Unknown. Would really appreciate any assistance. Thanks
  9. Not sure if this is the standard behavior, but the current client version my systems are using is 5.00.8634.1814. However the version that is installing during imaging is not the latest version. Is there a way to resolve this during imaging, or do I just wait until the client upgrades itself? Thanks Jesse
  10. Scenario: Windows 10 ADK 1803, SCCM CBB 1802, build and capture TS, OS Deployment TS. I did a build and capture of Windows 10 1803 CBB (64 bit), I then added my newly captured image, and slipstreamed the updates into the image. Upon Deployment of said image, the image gets deployed but steps in my Task Sequence fail to run.

  11. Hello everyone, I'm currently trying to learn about SCCM and deploying Windows 10 using PXE and MDT, however my clients never seem to get to the task sequence part, instead they just reboot when it says "Preparing network connections". I am able to stop the reboot by pressing F8 and it shows I have an ip, disk looks good using diskpart, can ping sccm fqdn and I'm able to use net use to map a share. I have crawled every possible forum and posts and nothing seems to help, and I really feel like everything is correct and should be working. I hope to get some help from you experts. The clients I have tried to deploy to are a Dell Optiplex 7040 client and Vmware VMs. I downloaded all the necessary drivers for the Optiplex 7040 and the vmxnet3 driver for the VM which I injected into the WinPE x64 boot image. I also tried to PXE boot without any driver in the boot image. I created a user in AD named SCCM_NAA which has been used as the network access account. The firewall has been completely turned off on the SCCM server. Deployed task sequence to All unknown computers and a collection called Windows 10 Deployment containing PC02.

  13. Hi, I have a headache with an extrange issue. I have deployed a Task Sequence time ago, this week i delete it and deployed a new one as i have done previously.Now i still see available both. First i checked the TS status and i reviewed that is not deployed to any collection. I disabled it too but still visible for clients (PXE). I thinks that is cached on DP or in the Databaseany suggestions? I attach some screens thanks

  16. Hello, I've recently been given the task to oversee our SCCM 2012 R2 environment when the previous admin went off on leave. I have very little experience with SCCM but I had some device management experience. I've encountered a few problems. The one I'd like to discuss today, is that I do not know how to handle our Dell Venue 11 Pro 5130 and Venue 10 Pro 5055. They are tablets that have 64 bit architecture but can only run 32-bit Windows. If they are known devices there aren't any problems they pull the correct wim and the correct available Task Sequences appear, however when the device is unknown, the device downloads the correct 32-bit wim file but is being considered a 64-bit unknown device, and the task sequences that are deployed to the unknown x64 collection. So as a temporary fix I deployed the Venue task sequence to the unknown x64 collection, but now there are 2 boot images being deployed to the same collection, it's causing issues with some other x64 devices. I'm sorry if this isn't clear. Any help would be greatly appreciated, Thank you.
  17. Hi, I'm struggling to find a definative answer to a question. Is it possible to rebuild a machine via an OSD task sequence within SCCM 2012 R2? Is SCCM working correctly in that if I have previously built a machine via a task sequence, then try to rebuild that machine it does not see that same task sequence and therefore will not be able to be rebuilt? I have a sequence deployed to all unknown computers. The 1st time it builds fine, if I then try to rebuild, it will not see the task sequence. I am assuming as it's no longer an unknown computer. Part of the sequence places the computer in a specified OU, it seems that sometimes it will see the sequence, sometimes it will not. I am using a usb build key with not pxe boot server. Is it expected behaviour that you should delete the computer from SCCM and then rebuild, is there a work around to allow support staff who don't have access to SCCM to rebuild machines? Any help appreciated.
  18. Hey Guys / Niall - I am making an important deployment today and wanted at least one other to review it to ensure it's correct before enabling So for the next 2-3 weeks, I've been instructed to reboot thousands of workstations nightly with notification at 3:00am each morning. I already have a task sequence which executes a custom notification EXE which also offers delay options and more and once it exists then the system reboots successfully. When doing this previously, I was afraid that random reboots may occur so deployed the TS daily to be available the following morning at 2:59am, run at 3:00am, and end at 3:30am. So I don't have to remember to do this, I wanted to make a single advertisement. I considered doing the above and advertising via PowerShell to create a specific deployment per day - however - I don't think that's necessary. Below is the schedule I am planning have for the task sequence to run every Monday - Thursday night (actually 3:00am Tuesday - Friday) for two weeks. Look ok to you or see any chance of issues? Just making 100% sure Thanks!
  19. I've been using MDT for a few years now, up to and including MDT 2012 update 1. Now we've purchased SC2012, and I'm trying to rebuild the deployment setup in SCCM to do the same things I did before in MDT. It looks like there are several areas where things might work in a different way. Rather than trying to manually recreate the exact steps I had in MDT, I wanted to check first to see if there's a better way to accomplish the same goals in SCCM. The question of the moment is regarding bitlocker. In MDT, I had set customsettings.ini up with different sections for laptops and desktops, and depending on the IsLaptop variable, it would jump to whichever was appropriate. For laptops, I enabled bitlocker. For Desktops, I didn't. I created a new mdt task sequence in SCCM (sp1 beta), and I see that it has steps included for pre-provisioning bitlocker and enabling bitlocker, both are conditional on the existence of an OSDBitlockerMode variable. I don't know how that variable is set, but I'd like the same setup I had with MDT, such that bitlocker is only enabled on laptops. What's the best way to do this?
  20. Guys I am trying to figure out something that has happened in the last week that's never happened before. A bunch of our laptops received windows updates this past Tuesday out of the blue. When I go search in programs and features and look at the updates that were installed I can see these were patches we pushed out months ago. I know for a fact even on my own machine that I had a successful deployment (at least according to deployment monitoring) for the particular software update group. Is it possible for a client to get out of sync and send the wrong message to WSUS kicking off a reinstall? I've never seen anything like this. Any ideas would be appreciated.
  21. Hey guys, So I am rolling out SCCM and OSD. I am learning this totally from scratch, so it's kind of a long road. The tutorials and help guides in this forum have been a HUGE benefit, so let me thank you for that. My questions are more procedural at this point. I have SCCM set up, and I've followed every step in the SCCM 1511 deployment guides on the forum. I have my Windows 10 x64 image set up and have tested PXE booting, which works perfectly. So now...how do I go about this whole process for my help desk guys? I'm thinking right now I'm able to tell my help desk guys that I have deployed a clean image of Windows 10 x64, that will do some basic tasks (add to the domain, add to correct OU, enable .NET 3.5). They could start using this tomorrow. In the mean time, I will continue to work in the background on deploying each application we use. I envision that I can slowly roll out each one as I test it. Office 365 tomorrow, then our Loan Ops app, then another, etc. Is there a 'best practice' for setting up a build lab environment to test with, then migrate it to production once I'm happy? I have to imagine it's setting up a Device Collection specifically for testing, then create a test Task Sequence that I can use. Once I'm happy, is there a best way to push the new task sequence to production? Or do I just un-distribute the old Task Sequence to OSD Deploy and then distribute the new one? Sorry if I'm all over the place, I'm having a hard time knowing even exactly what I'm asking for. tl,dr: I want my help desk guys to be able to use what I've got ready so far with SCCM and OSD, and then push out new configurations as I test/implement them. Thanks in advance.
  22. Hi! I'm using a VBS script during OS deployment to set the AD computer description. But results are unpredictable at best (if you use numbers or gaps) Does someone has a suggestion for a good working solution ? script that I was testing : cscript.exe adcompdesc.vbs “%ComputerDescription%” dim Computerdn, strComputerName dim Args Set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell") '----Get Computer DN------ Set objADSysInfo = CreateObject("ADSystemInfo") ComputerDN = objADSysInfo.ComputerName strcomputerdn = "LDAP://" & computerDN Set objADSysInfo = Nothing '-----Read commandline--- Set args = WScript.Arguments strdesc = args(0) Addcompdesc strdesc Function addcompdesc(strPCdescription) Set objComputer = GetObject (strComputerDN) objComputer.Put "Description", strPCdescription objComputer.SetInfo end function
  23. Hello, We are running SCCM CB (1511) and I'm trying to push an package more than 70 workstations ,it's a mix of Win7 and Win10 .

  24. Hello All, I have a Powershell script that I use to create multiple Software Update Deployments and it works perfectly (well almost). The last piece I'm missing is automating the deadline date. Currently I just have it getting the current date and adding 5 days. I then go into each deployments properties and change the date/time to the desired info. I've been trying to work out automating this a little bit by adding a variable for a static date/time. I can then change this date (time will always be the same) to the desired info at script run. Below is what I've come up with so far. The -EnforcementDeadlineDay piece works on it own, in that it outputs the correct date with an incremented time. However once I put it in the full script i get the below errors. Any help is much appreciated. Cheers, Mike Script: # Monthly Deployment Date #$DeploymentDate = Get-Date -Format "yyyy-MM" $DeploymentDate = (Get-Date).AddDays(-30).ToString("yyyy-MM") $DeadlineDate = Get-Date -Month 08 -Day 07 -Year 2016 -Hour 17 -Minute 0 -Second 0 # Software Update Groups $SUPGroupName1 = "EN5 - EDC - Year 2013- ($DeploymentDate) Reference 1" $SUPGroupName2 = "EN5 - EDC - Year 2013+ ($DeploymentDate) Reference 2" #Load Configuration Manager PowerShell Module Import-module ($Env:SMS_ADMIN_UI_PATH.Substring(0,$Env:SMS_ADMIN_UI_PATH.Length-5) + '\ConfigurationManager.psd1') #Get SiteCode and set Powershell Drive $SiteCode = Get-PSDrive -PSProvider CMSITE Set-location $SiteCode":" # Create Standard Deployments (Group 1) $DeploymentName = "EN5 - PM Dev ($DeploymentDate) Reboot Deployment # 1" $DeploymentCount = 6 $Count = 0 1..$DeploymentCount | ForEach-Object { $Count++ Write-Progress -Activity "Creating Deployment Group 1" -Id 1 -Status "Running $($Count) / $($DeploymentCount)" -PercentComplete (($Count / $DeploymentCount) * 100) Start-CMSoftwareUpdateDeployment -SoftwareUpdateGroupName "$SUPGroupName1" -CollectionName "EN5 - PM - Deployment $Count (Lab)" -DeploymentName "$DeploymentName-$Count" -DeploymentType Required -VerbosityLevel AllMessages -TimeBasedOn LocalTime -DeploymentAvailableDay (Get-Date) -EnforcementDeadlineDay $DeadlineDate.ToLongDateString()$DeadlineDate.Addhours($Count).ToLongTimeString() -UserNotification HideAll -SoftwareInstallation $True -AllowRestart $True -RestartServer $False -RestartWorkstation $False -ProtectedType RemoteDistributionPoint -UnprotectedType UnprotectedDistributionPoint -GenerateSuccessAlert $False -DisableOperationsManagerAlert $False -GenerateOperationsManagerAlert $False -PersistOnWriteFilterDevice $False -UseBranchCache $False } Write-Progress -Activity "Creating Deployment Group 1" -Id 1 -Completed Errors: Start-CMSoftwareUpdateDeployment : A positional parameter cannot be found that accepts argument '6:00:00 PM'.

  25. Hello, My company has decided to create and deploy the LTSB version of Windows 10 Enterprise instead of the CB version. Within the build process, we want to have applications populate the taskbar but every time we create the OS build and capture the OS and then test the deployment, the taskbar appears to empty which means that users will need to be instructed on finding the Internet Explorer icon, Windows Explorer Icon and have to drop the MS Office icons there. I might be missing something within the build process so I'm hoping there is a simple solution to creating a more customized desktop environment for users right from the image that gets put on their PCs.
