Application deployment evaluation powershell script

Hi,
Is there a way that I can run a powershell script or vbs script that will allow me to run the Client actions on the local client. kind of like a shortcut that will go into the configuration manager client control panel icon and run the client action required.
Specifically for the Application Deployment Evaluation
Any help would be appreciated
Regards
Mike

Hi,
Check out this old thread on the topic,
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/9ec7318f-4ab7-4db3-bfa5-958ab1c39f4f/application-deployment-evaluation-cycle-not-willing-to-start-by-script?forum=configmanagersdk
An example is included in there as well.
You can also use the Right-click tools extensions in the console which include this action as well.

Application Deployment Evaluation Cycle Query

Does anyone have a sql query to determine when machines in a collection last ran their Application Deployment Evaluation Cycle?
Thanks for any suggestions!

Thanks Garth and Jason. About the only place that seems to provide the information is the client side appdiscovery.log file. I have a couple sql queries that return things like last software scan date, etc, and I was hoping there might be something
similar for the application deployment evaluation cycle.
To your question, Jason, we have a vdi solution that is closely scrutinized by the powers that be. Every utilization spike on the storage array triggers a flurry of "why did that happen?" emails from management (a behavior born out of a couple
previous array crashes). It's been useful to correlate some the SCCM actions time stamps to the time frames of some of these spikes. In this particular case, a spike was monitored when somebody used right click tools to run the application deployment
evaluation cycle on a large collection of vdi machines. Bet you're sorry you asked now!
Anyway, thanks again. I'll script out another solution.

Application Deployment Evaluation - Force using WMI - %000123 "not found"

I am automating application install using Orchestrator which will deploy applications based on ticket being approved. This is working fine. I would like to force the Application Evaluation in the SCORCH Runbook.. using powershell or WMIC for SCCM 2012 R2
Client.
I have done this before :) But not sure whats going on this time.
The %000123 task for Application GLobal evaluation fails with "not found". Other tasks like %0001 work fine.

Deploy powershell script - Uninstall Forefront

Hi
Im trying to build a powershell script that uninstall Forefront Client and later install SCEP and it also copy the local exclusions from Forefront to insert in SCEP (registry).
All works fine when Im running the script locally, but when Im deploying it from Altiris DS it halts on Microsoft Forefront Client Security Antimalware Service". Every time, I also have tried to sort them differently but it wont work.
All I see in the event viewer is a warning:
"Application 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft Forefront\Client Security\Client\Antimalware\MSASCui.exe' (pid 1964) cannot be restarted - Application SID does not match Conductor SID.."
And then later an error:
HRESULT:0x80070643
Description:Cannot complete the System Center Endpoint Protection installation. An error has prevented the System Center Endpoint Protection setup wizard from completing successfully. Please restart your computer and try again. Error code:0x80070643. Fatal
error during installation.
This is the deployment from Altiris:
powershell.exe -noexit "& 'C:\Temp\ForefrontSCEP.ps1'"
Does anyone has any clue?
Cheers!
**** The script ****

# "Uninstall Forefront Assessment"
$app = Get-WmiObject -Class Win32_Product | Where-Object {
    $_.Name -match "Microsoft Forefront Client Security State Assessment Service"
$app.Uninstall()
# "Uninstall Forefront Antimalware"
$app = Get-WmiObject -Class Win32_Product | Where-Object {
    $_.Name -match "Microsoft Forefront Client Security Antimalware Service"
$app.Uninstall()
# Install SCEP with policy
Start-Process -FilePath C:\Temp\SCEPClient_New\scepinstall.exe -ArgumentList "/s /q /policy C:\Temp\SCEPClient_New\ServerSCEP.xml" -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue

I finally solved, in two ways.
For the powershell part:
I changed the name match against a filter function. So now I can deploy the powershell script just fine.
$app = Get-WmiObject -Class Win32_Product | Where-Object {
    $_.Name -match "Microsoft Operations Manager 2005 Agent"
$application = Get-WMIObject Win32_Product -filter "Name='Microsoft Operations Manager 2005 Agent'"
2nd solution:
I also created a batch file which worked at my first try. Gotta love the old fashion way :)
I post it here as well, maybe somebody can get use of it.

Configure service application associations using PowerShell

Hi all,
I have configured my service applications with PowerShell scripts and created a new web applications (also with PowerShell scripts).
However, I don't seem to find the necessary information on how to configure the service application to be used by this new web application using PowerShell cmdlets.
Any idea on how to do this?
Thanks in advance,
Florin

What you're describing is called a Proxy Group. You add Service Application Proxies to the Service Application Proxy Group, and that Proxy Group is assigned to the Web Application.
Step 1:
Use
New-SPServiceApplicationProxyGroup
Step 2:
Add Service Application Proxies by adding Members via
Add-SPServiceApplicationProxyGroupMember
Step 3:
Assign the Proxy Group to the Web Application via
Set-SPWebApplication -ServiceApplicationProxyGroup
Let us know if you need further help.

Hi,
Here is a Adam Meltzer's blog about how to create an Application with a requirement rule pointing to a global condition. You could have a look.

Deploy Powershell Script As An Application Install Question

I want to create an application (not packages) to run a powershell script to install a software. In this script it installs software and copies files over to different directories. Is there a way to do this in Applications? Currently I've been creating
task sequences to accomplish this which does work but I was wondering if this could be done thru applications or maybe if there is some better idea of doing this. Any advice would be grateful. Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Any updates?
If this problem has not been resolved, please check AppIntentEval.log and AppEnforce.log to see whether there are some helpful information.
" I can run it manually from the ccmcache folder and it'll install the software but when running the "install.ps1" file from SCCM it doesn't install the software but does copy files to the directory specified."
Could this be related to the account running the script? How about running as system account?

Joyce

Trying to deploy a batch or powershell script unsuccessful

I've deployed a .cmd file out that contains a WMI script to uninstall all instances of an application called "VirtViewer". The script looks like this:
taskkill /F /IM remote-viewer.exe /T
wmic product where "name like 'VirtViewer%%'" call uninstall /nointeractive
exit /B %EXIT_CODE%
Previously, I had used MSI product codes for the uninstall, and got the same result. My original problem, is that there are currently 9 different versions of this app out there, so i am ripping them all out and replacing with 1 version. Installing over an
old version does not overwrite the older one, it instead installs a new instance.
Reading through the execmgr.log on the client, everything looks as it should.
The end result, is that nothing happens. I had originally set the program to run as hidden, but then changed it to normal but still do not see it run. The application is right where i left it, untouched. If i run the script locally it works fine, but not
when deployed. Am i missing something??

I just tried using powershell to accomplish the same task, and got the same result. Script ran fine, but nothing resulted. 0 errors in the execmgr.log on the client.
Program options:
Command Line: Powershell.exe -executionpolicy Bypass -file .\VirtUninstall.ps1
the powershell script looks like this:
$app = Get-WmiObject -Class Win32_Product | Where-Object {$_.Name -match "VirtViewer*"}
$app.Uninstall()
exit /B
Again, the script runs great when launched locally, but not wehen deployed

SCCM 2012 application run Powershell script and return codes

Hi,
I created an new application (imported as MSI) in SCCM 2012R2. After import I changed the deployment type installation program to run a Powershell script: powershell.exe -ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted -File "Install FactSet 2013 5I.ps1
My goal is to close some processes before installing the MSI. This works. But on a failure the application program also return code 0 (AppEnforce.log). Is it possible to pass the MSI return codes to SCCM.
Maybe anyone had the same or idea's to solve this? Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Peter

It's really hard to tell from the code above because of the way it's listed, but are sure that even executes? I see at least one stray curly brace and a stray square bracket.
For the Start-Process cmdlet, have you tried without the -passthru parameter?
Also, using the actual parameters will make the code much more readable instead of relying on position.

Powershell scripting multiple WSP deployment

I'm moving an application with around 40 custom WSPs to a new environment, and need to find a way to script their deployment. Around half of them are Globally deployed.
I can deploy them one at a time using
add-spsolution –literalpath c:\...\SolutionName.wsp
Check _admin/solutions.aspx to ensure it's in Solution Management
Select wsp and Deploy Solution
Go to application
Site Actions > Site Settings > Site Collection Administration > Site Collection Features
Activate new feature
Can anyone point out documentation on how to do this in an automated fashion?
Thanks,
Scott

SharePoint PowerShell script to open Excel.Application on Windows server 2008 R2

Hi
I am building a PowerShell script to open an Excel file store on SharePoint document library. Sound simple enough but I just couldn't get over an error and hopefully someone can help give an answer here.
I have found many sample codes to use. All of the sample codes show that a new object must be created for Excel application
like ($Excel = New-Object -comobject Excel.Application) before that excel file can be read.
When I run this comand on a SharePoint server (Windows 2008 R2) either inside the script or by itself I keep getting the following error:
New-Object : Cannot load COM type Excel.Application.
+ $excel = New-Object <<<< -Com Excel.Application
+ CategoryInfo : InvalidType: (:) [New-Object], PSArgumentException
For the test, I ran this comand on a Windows 7 with MS Office applications installed, then it ran fine.
Is that because I don't have Office application (Excel) installed on the server to run this or some services need to be turned on?
From the sample codes, look like I should be able to run it on the Server with SharePoint installed.
Thanks for any advice or solution to resolve my issue.

So I'm assuming this won't return anything either?
Get-WMIObject Win32_ClassicCOMClassSetting | ? {$_.VersionIndependentProgId -like 'excel.application'}
You need Office/Excel installed on the server because you're accessing those .DLLs for the automation functionality, but depending on what you're trying to do you may be able to use one of the office viewers:
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=10 although I'm not sure how much of the com (if any) is exposed in a viewer install. if Office is not possible due to
budget reasons, I believe there are several 3rd party providers who can produce a com object that will handle Excel formats.

Which is better approach to manage sharepoint online - PowerShell Script with CSOM or Console Application with CSOM?

Which is better approach to manage sharepoint online - PowerShell Script with CSOM or Console Application with CSOM?
change in sharepoint scripts not require compilation but anything else?

Yes, PowerShell is great, since you can quick change your code without compilation.
SP admin can write ps scripts without specific tools like Visual Studio.
With powershell you can use cmdlets,
which could remove a lot of code, for example restarting a service.
