SCCM 2007 R3 OEM Prestage Problem

[2ez24get]

Last week I finished pushing out the KB977384 hotfix ahead of SCCM 2007 R3 upgrade. Today I finished installing the R3 on the server. I am trying to configure the OEM Prestage but need some help. I have my task sequence which works for Bare metal builds and wanted to either modify the existing TS to include the OEM Prestage or create another TS. If someone has examples or a link I could follow.

 

Thanks.

Hi there, I'm in the same boat, did you ever resolve this issue? I tried following Microsoft's method here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/977384 but on my test deployment machine, both the ConfigMgr client and the hotfix failed to install, the error on the deployment machine referenced a problem copying the hotfix to a temp location. I'm going to attach a portion of my client.msi.txt file from the destination pc that failed. Also, here is the exact commands I'm using in my TS (it is the Microsoft suggested commands, plus the standard setting for cache)

PATCH="%_SMSTSMDataPath%\OSD\CEC0030\i386\hotfix\KB977384\SCCM2007AC-SP2-KB977384-x86-enu.msp" SMSCACHESIZE=8000

 

Thanks,

I had to change the SMS Agent Host and SMS_EXECUTIVE services to disabled then reboot the server. Then the server patch would apply. Reset the services back to Automatic then reboot. To apply the patch to the existing workstations I use the command in an advertisement CCMSETUP.EXE /noservice mp:sccm-dr.hc.ad SMSSITECODE=DRA FSP=sccm-dr.hc.ad SMSSLP=sccm-dr.hc.ad PATCH="sccm2007ac-sp2-kb977384-x86-enu.msp"

 

Thanks.

Sorry for the dumb question: Do those existing workstations have the CCM client installed already? And how did you figure out that you must disable those specific services in order to get the patch to install?
