Automating the Update Management Controller action from the SCCM console

After successfully provisioning over 2,000 PCs for SCCM OOB management through the in-band approach, we now have a requirement to change the current settings which can be initiated against specific computer objects from the SCCM console.
Is there anyway to automate this process? and to get some form of confirmation that the update has been applied apart from keeping eyes glued to the AMT provisioning logs. I suspect the requirement to update the settings will occur again in
the future.
Thanks, Alan

Since no one has answer this post, I recommend opening a support case with CSS as they can work with you to solve this problem.

Desinger Workflow 2010: Unable to load workflow actions from the server. Please contact your server administrator?

Hello,
I am facing a problem from last some days..
When I am trying to open/create/update workflows from Designer 2010, then designer giving me an error "Unable to load workflow actions from the server. Please contact your server administrator".
I researched on internet for this error and found some possible reason like
Login user Permission issue
Error in custom actions
So that I checked for permission for login user, but it has administrator rights. and I tried to open workflow by removing custom activity code, but still exist.
also if I tried to create/update workflow for another site on same server then it works without any problem.
Can anybody please help me?
Many thanks,
Nitin

Hi NiTiN4u,
Thanks for your post.
First, here are some troubleshoot workflow error form Microsoft site:
http://office.microsoft.com/en-gb/sharepoint-designer-help/troubleshoot-workflow-errors-HA010237912.aspx#BM20
Second, have you tried to close the site and open it again in SharePoint Designer 2010?
Third, try to restart your IIS and share the results.

On a server linux I have the repository, and on other server (Sun 5.9) I have runtimes for production.
I want execute an upgrade deploy action on one object but I get this error:

Any idea?

I review the installation, it was made with a diferent user that database, I get same permission, restart runtimes service and problem was resolved.

Hi my MacBook is freezing whenever I try to open an application. I have tried resetting the system management controller, however no success. How can I wipe my hardrive and reinstall it again. PS: I no longer have the installation CDs, can I download it from Apple?

To get replacement installation disks, call Apple. Have the serial number of your MBP ready and a credit card. There is a fee.
Ciao.

I have lost the photoshop manages color option from my print menu in CS6.

I have lost the photoshop manages color option from my print menu in CS6. It now has colorsync manages color as an option along with printer manages color. I don't know how to reverse this and I can no longer use my printer with any assurance of accurate color.
What could have caused this & how do I reverse it?

Assuming you have not gone to a newer version of WORD and it is just an update issue, then you should be able to go to the addins in the options of word and enable Acrobat. Sometimes the updates of WORD seem to disable the plugin. Note that the plugin is PDF Maker and shows up in the save as menu as well as an Adobe menu item in WORD. The printer is a separate process and does no require activation.
A repair of Acrobat may also solve the problem.

I updated my iPod and it erased everything i had on it. How do i retrieve the songs that i bought from the iTunes store? when i try to download/buy them again they tell me i have already purchased them do i want to buy them again?

I updated my iPod and it erased everything i had on it. How do i retrieve the songs that i bought from the iTunes store? when i try to download/buy them again they tell me i have already purchased them do i want to buy them again? I have authorized my computer but none of them are in my music now.

You buy one and only one download.
It is your responsibility to move/copy/backup your music.
Certainly you did not update your ipod without making sure that you had transferred anything purchased on the ipod to your computer and included it in your regular backup copy of your computer.

I bought this MAC from a family member. Did everything need to change items to my apple id. Today I did the update for IOS Yosemite now the app store is auto filling with someone else id?? But they seem to be my apps??

If you didn’t erase the drive and install using you AppleID, then the OS and the purchased apps are still registered to the other AppleID. You cannot change that by logging into iCloud. Apps are forever tied to the AppleID used to purchase/download them.
You have to erase the drive and download/install the Apps using your AppleID.

System variables in R/3 for the action from the portal

Hi,
How can we know the action from the portal,i mean from the create expense report i want to throw an error message if the user press "Review" button based on my validation. i have written in the badi,but when the user press "Previous step" button also this badi is getting triggered and as per the validation it is throwing an error message, i cannot go back. Are there any system variables that we can capture which button he pressed from the portal so that i can control to throw an error message only when the user press "Review" button.
Thanks & Regards,

What is the best settings to use in the export manager when exporting from Aperture 3.5 to Photoshop cc. tiff? psd? 16bit? dpi?

What are the best settings to use in the export manager when exporting from Aperture 3.5 to Photoshop cc for editing?
Should I use tiff or psd?
8bit or 16bit?
How many dpi?

That will depend on the photometric resolution of your originals. For jpegs it would be a waste of space to convert them to a higher resolution than 8bit, but if your images actually have already more than 8bit, you will want to preserve this quality. Then he 16bit format will help to prevent color clipping.
Both tiff and psd will preserve the lossless workflow. With Photoshop as external editor I would use he psd format for better support of layers and transparency, e.g., when you want to create watermark files.
The dpi will only matter, when you export the file for printing.

I have been trying to download photo's from a CD onto my MacBook pro but when I insert the disc I get this box that pops up onto my screen: You inserted a blank CD. Choose an action from the pop-up menu or click Ignore. Is there a way to fix this so I can use my photo's?

Bummer. Could be a problem with the MBP drive. Are you using Re-writable discs maybe?
Check the discs work in your HP machine. They may have burnt but not successfully. Your HP machine may not be able to open them either.
Have you considered using a USB flash device to transfer the photos, or just copy them over your home network? CD is a slow an cumbersome method.

I just lost all recent updates to my iCal from the last days. Can this possibly happen ??? What can I do to restore iCal with the most recent updates?

Hello All, yesterday afternoon I just lost all recent updates to my iCal from the last days. How can this possibly happen ??? It may have occured after I chose the Refresh function after I had problems searching my iCal for a particular event. I think my iPhone was also not properly synched in the morning but I didn't pay it much attention and opened iCal on my MacBookAir instead.
How can I prevent this from happening again?
What can I do to restore iCal with the most recent updates?

Random glitch. It doesn't matter; if you didn't backup the data, then you can't recover the data.
In the future, for any 'important' data, back up that data regularly. Forward the 'important' text messages to your email. Trasnfer your photos & videos to your computer, etcetera.
