Scripted Client Install Can't Find MP

[Nillzle]

Really new to SCCM and starting with SCCM 2012... I believe I have everything setup on the site side, below is my current configuration:

 

I have one main site that handles the DP, MP, CS, SLP, and one SUP site that has SCUP and WSUS. I have the site assigned to an extended AD schema and it shows up in the Systems Management OU (shows servername with Management Point and SLP) so that appears correct. The MP is setup for HTTP client connections. I'm not using WINS but the client machines don't have File and Print Sharing enabled so deploying CCMSetup through a script (ccmsetup.exe /mp:"siteservername").

 

My issue is that the client isn't finding the site code either automatically or manually. I keep getting errors saying it can't find the MP. Below are log info per log file:

I'm thinking there is an HTTP issue because its not showing any site information through the HTTP request...but not sure why not. I can browse to the site from the client and I can nslookup the site by 'siteservername' so just really confused.

 

Thanks for the help!

[marculos]

can you access the management point from a browser http://SCCM_SERVER_NAME/SMS_MP/.sms_aut?MPLIST /

[Nillzle]

Yeah I sure can, which is why I'm so confused at this point, it shows me the MP Name and an SSLState of 0. Its the same site name that I'm using in CCM.

 

- <MPList>

- <MP Name="siteservername" FQDN="siteservername">

<Version>7561</Version>

- <Capabilities SchemaVersion="1.0">

<Property Name="SSLState" Value="0" />

</Capabilities>

</MP>

</MPList>

is the client in the defined boundary and is the boundary added to a boundary group ?

[Nillzle]

I've done some reading on issues like this that it could be that the boundaries in place just aren't specific enough. To try and remedy this I have 3 boundaries in place, see below:

 

IP Subnet: x.0.0.0

IP Address Range: x.x.x.x - x.x.x.x (this is a '0' to '254' range that has the clients' IP in it)

Active Directory Site: USA

is the client in the defined boundary and is the boundary added to a boundary group ?

 

I don't have a boundary group setup though...is that required?

[Nillzle]

WOW, thanks sooo much Marculos, that was totally the problem. I didn't have the boundary group setup and once I did I assigned it to the site and my client connected just fine. I didn't think a boundary group was needed since the boundaries were already defined...I couldn't find any information anywhere that explained that the boundary group was required.

 

Thanks again for the help!
