_nick Posted May 20, 2016 Report post Posted May 20, 2016 Hi, Does anyone know if its possible to stop the CM client on client devices? I guess i could uninstall the CM client but wondered if there was an easier / quicker way to just stop communication between the client and the MP temporarily? We are using CM 2012 R2 SP1, i can see you can set a client to "Not Approved", would this stop all communication between the client and MP? We have issues with a small group of devices running slow at a particular time each day, i would like to take SCCM out of the equation by temporarily disabling the CM client. Any help much appreciated. Thanks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
YPCC Posted May 20, 2016 Report post Posted May 20, 2016 Not Approve would stop certain elements but best way is to stop and disable the ccmexec service on the machines. This is because a "not approved" machine would still be doing processing client side. If you are getting slowdowns then stopping the services eliminates sccm completely. Be sure to disable it else the service will start again (even if manual) 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
