Command line to run the SCCM client installation

SCCM Client package have been distributed to all servers. It will be available in \\servername\smspkgf$\GS2002B2
Do we need a command line to run the SCCM client installation manually?

Prevent SCCM Client Installation on the target computers

I need a sure-fire way to prevent manual, automated, deployment, or push SCCM Client installs from specific computers (they are medical, and will violate FDA regulations if non-approved software is installed on them). I'm aware of the Registry entry
on the Site Server, but, am looking for something on the target computer side (RegHack, phoney file/folder, etc.). Discovery of the computers, but inability to install the client is OK (we'll be removing them from the Discovery LDAP queries
as needed).
Our SCCM Hierarchy is in one Domain, and the clients all in other Domains, so, I could look at excluding the client install account, but, that won't stop a manual or automated install.
Thanks.

Did you see the following link?

Hi Sabrina,
i saw that this is for SCCM 2007 is it also working for SCCM 2012?
I can't find the regsitry key for the 64 OS. Do i have to create it? Do you have any experience if ist working?

SCCM Client Installation - Options for "Retry" Setting

Hey Guys -
I've got a fairly straightforward question for you. When the SCCM Client is installed / deployed to a system, successfully downloads locally, but fails, it retries installation by default every 30 minutes. When creating an Orchestrator runbook
for Client Health, I'm needing ccmsetup to try only once.
So basically, I'm trying to find out how to make ccmsetup.exe not retry installation and simply fail. There is a "Retry" command line switch for ccmsetup (/retry:<Minutes>) where
minutes may be specified, however, this does not pertain to the actual installation, but the initial download of the setup files. It does not have an affect on the client installation, itself.
Yes, a simple script could be created which could kill the process after X, but prefer a native (or at least better) solution.
Any ideas? Thanks!
Ben K.

Hey - Thanks for the reply...
I totally understand what you are saying - but - the only reason I thought I'd ask is because it's being used in an Orchestrator Runbook as mentioned and processes which run after it won't start until it completes. When it loops, it never completes.
Basically, yes - I understand what you are saying and have done it 100 times, but in this case was wondering if there was a more "supported" method by chance.
Thanks -
Ben K.

Why the SCCM client always corrupts the WMI repository?

Hi All,
I have a Configuration Manager 2012 R2 CU2 installation with hundred of client/servers.
From the initial deploy of the SCCM client, we seen that many machines had a Windows slow logon process.
We searched online for a fix and many people had this problem, suggesting to enable a registry key called
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\CCM\Ccmeval\NotifyOnly.
From that date, we fixed the slow logon process problem, but still have problems with operating system's updates installed with SCCM.
In the most cases, when SCCM install updates, it corrupt the WMI database and at the OS reboot, the updates are rolled back.
On the same machines, if we install updates from Windows Updates, we have no problems.
Also, with SCCM installation, we see a lot of "DCOM" or "PerfLib" errors.
Usually, the remote management of a client with SCCM doesn't works because the WMI repository is corrupted, so each time we need to do uninstall the SCCM client and do this:
1. Disable and stop the WMI service.
     sc config winmgmt start= disabled
     net stop winmgmt
2. Run the following commands.
     Winmgmt /salvagerepository %windir%\System32\wbem      (I noticed that you have run this command, but I would suggest that you try it again)
     Winmgmt /resetrepository %windir%\System32\wbem
4. Re-enable the WMI service and then reboot the server to see how it goes.
     sc config winmgmt start= auto
This is very frustrating.
Why the SCCM client create all these problems and how to fix this?
Thanks for your support.

I think that my case is not isolate.
There are a lot of posts like this:
http://www.windows-noob.com/forums/index.php?/topic/8989-wmi-corruption-sccm-2012-win7-sp1/
http://trevorsullivan.net/2012/11/21/configmgr-2012-ccmeval-exe-causing-client-corruption/
The strange thing is that the WMI corruptions only happens on machine where the SCCM client is installed, even if the machines is without any additional software (fresh windows installation).
In the same time, I need to fix a ProfSvc bug (KB2617858) because the PC become unusable.
Also, why it starts a WMI rebuild if I deploy the client with the "NotifyOnly" option (the registry key is fine)?
So, basically, on a fresh windows machine, as it joins to the domain:
1) the SCCM client install itselfs
2) it starts to install several windows updates
3) at the first restart, it try to rebuild the WMI and the ProfSvc bug appears
May be that the problem is not the SCCM client itself, but a windows update deployed via SCCM client?

Help:How can I run the J2EE Client Application? Thanks

Help:How can I run the J2EE Client Application that will access the remote J2EE1.4 application server which runs on another host computer?
I have developped a stateles senterprise java bean name converter and deloyed it in the j2ee1.4 application server on the host machine A. The converterbean provides the remote home interface and remote interface. At the same time I have developped the j2ee application client named convertappclient. When I access the conveter bean at host computer A through the script 'appclient.bat' as 'appclient -client convertappclient.jar', the client can access the bean sucessfully. Now I want to access the bean through the script 'appclient.bat' at host computer B,what files should I copy from host computer A to host computer B;and what the command line should be like? Thanks!
The following are the code of the enterprise java bean and it's home interface .
The client code is also provided.
The enterprise java bean:
package converter;
import java.rmi.RemoteException;
import javax.ejb.SessionBean;
import javax.ejb.SessionContext;
import java.math.*;
public class ConverterBean implements SessionBean {
BigDecimal yenRate = new BigDecimal("121.6000");
BigDecimal euroRate = new BigDecimal("0.0077");
public ConverterBean() {
public BigDecimal dollarToYen(BigDecimal dollars) {
BigDecimal result = dollars.multiply(yenRate);
return result.setScale(2, BigDecimal.ROUND_UP);
public BigDecimal yenToEuro(BigDecimal yen) {
BigDecimal result = yen.multiply(euroRate);
return result.setScale(2, BigDecimal.ROUND_UP);
public void ejbCreate() {
public void ejbRemove() {
public void ejbActivate() {
public void ejbPassivate() {
public void setSessionContext(SessionContext sc) {
The bean's remote home interface :
package converter;
import java.rmi.RemoteException;
import javax.ejb.CreateException;
import javax.ejb.EJBHome;
public interface ConverterHome extends EJBHome {
Converter create() throws RemoteException, CreateException;
The bean's remote interface:
package converter;
import javax.ejb.EJBObject;
import java.rmi.RemoteException;
import java.math.*;
public interface Converter extends EJBObject {
public BigDecimal dollarToYen(BigDecimal dollars) throws RemoteException;
public BigDecimal yenToEuro(BigDecimal yen) throws RemoteException;
The j2ee application client:
import converter.Converter;
import converter.ConverterHome;
import javax.naming.Context;
import javax.naming.InitialContext;
import javax.rmi.PortableRemoteObject;
import java.math.BigDecimal;
public class ConverterClient {
public static void main(String[] args) {

Object objref = myEnv.lookup("ejb/SimpleConverter");
ConverterHome home =
(ConverterHome) PortableRemoteObject.narrow(objref,
ConverterHome.class);
Converter currencyConverter = home.create();
BigDecimal param = new BigDecimal("100.00");
BigDecimal amount = currencyConverter.dollarToYen(param);
System.out.println(amount);
amount = currencyConverter.yenToEuro(param);
System.out.println(amount);
System.exit(0);
} catch (Exception ex) {
System.err.println("Caught an unexpected exception!");
ex.printStackTrace();
}

SCCM Client installation to only Online machines from All Systems Device collection through Client Push

Hi,
How can we create a device collection based on only online machines , than use that collection to install the sccm client through client push method.
Shailendra Dev

You can run a ping report and then create a collection from only the online machines:
Ping Report Script (Put the machine list in "pclist.txt" in the same folder):
Const ForReading = 1
Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set objShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
If not objFSO.FileExists("Pclist.txt") THEN
wscript.echo "File not found,"&_
vbcrlf&"with a hard return at the end of each line."
wscript.quit
end if
tempobj="temp.txt"
Set objTextFile = objFSO.OpenTextFile("Pclist.txt", ForReading)
logfile="results.csv"
Set ofile=objFSO.CreateTextFile(logfile,True)
strText = objTextFile.ReadAll
objTextFile.Close
wscript.echo "Ping starting"
ofile.WriteLine ","&"Ping Report -- Date: " & Now() & vbCrLf
arrComputers = Split(strText, vbCrLF)
for each item in arrcomputers
objShell.Run "cmd /c ping -n 1 -w 1200 " & item & " >temp.txt", 0, True
Set tempfile = objFSO.OpenTextFile(tempobj,ForReading)
Do Until tempfile.AtEndOfStream
temp=tempfile.readall
striploc = InStr(temp,"[")
        If striploc=0 Then
            strip=""
        Else
            strip=Mid(temp,striploc,16)
            strip=Replace(strip,"[","")
            strip=Replace(strip,"]","")
            strip=Replace(strip,"w"," ")
            strip=Replace(strip," ","")
        End If
        If InStr(temp, "Reply from") Then
             ofile.writeline item & ","&strip&","&"Online."
        ElseIf InStr(temp, "Request timed out.") Then
             ofile.writeline item &","&strip&","&"No response (Offline)."
        ELSEIf InStr(temp, "try again") Then
             ofile.writeline item & ","&strip&","&"Unknown host (no DNS entry)."
End If
Loop
Next
tempfile.close
objfso.deletefile(tempobj)

How to pass a command line argument to the sequence?

Hi,
My GUI is written in VB.NET. I can read the command line argument in the GUI, using: Me.AxApplicationMgr.CommandLineArguments(). But I don't know how to pass it on to my sequence file which the GUI invokes. How do I read the command line argument from the sequence file?
My purpose, is to have the same basic sequence execute different subsequences depending on starting conditions...
I am using TestStand 3.0 with a VB.NET GUI, on Windows XP.
I'd appreciate any help on the subject.
Alan

Hi Alan,
One obvious way would be to add parameter(s) to the MainSequence and then modify the process model sequence file to use the new parameter(s) in the step "MainSequence Callback" in either Single Pass or Test UUTs but I wouldn't recommend this approach.
The sequence file to be run via the entry point can be found at "RunState.ProcessModelClient" and the lookup string to the MainSequence would be "RunState.ProcessModelClient.Data.Seq["MainSequence"] or .Seq[0] .
Therefore you could quite easy use the SetVal method to setup a Local variable in the MainSequence of your Sequence File to receive the command line string.
Also you could do this without altering the Process Model Sequence File by using the Callback Sequence ProcessSetup in your Sequence File.
As an example.
You have a string in your Locals of MainSequence called CmdLineStr.
If you add the Callback Sequence ProcessSetup to your SequenceFile, then add an ActiveX Automation Adapter step which is setup for a PropertyObject and the reference is RunState.Caller.RunState.ProcessModel.Data.Seq[0].Locals.CmdLineStr.
There is an extra RunState.Caller to the lookup string, that's because I am doing the work in a SubSequence of Entry Point Sequence.
The method to use is SetValString and the parameters of the PropertyObject will be
lookupString = ""
options = 0 or 1
newValue = where evey you have stored you command line string.
Now when you run your sequence file you will find that the Locals.CmdLineStr will contain your parameter string.
Hope this is of help to you.

SCCM Client Installation Error and compmgr service issues

Hi dudes,
Hope you all are good. I am getting stuck in SCCM client installation. I have SCCM 2007 R3 setup. It's working perfect but recently getting errors in
sccm client installation after facing some viruses issues in my environment.
I search on that error but nothing found any relevant information related
to the below error. I tried to manually installing the client but getting the error ccmsetup.exe is not a valid 32 bit application :(. Also while trying to start the configmgr service manager in tool box it gives the below snapshot error. Any help relevant
to the below error very meaningful for me.
Regards,
Mohsin

Hi Jason,
Thank You for your response. Yes i tried it to manually start the service on client machine but it give the below error,
For component service manager, yes we are going forward to the restoration process using VM restore(as sccm is deployed on a VM and we take the full vm backup).

What is the command line equivalent of the *compress* tool in *Finder*

I have an automatic build setup for our iPhone Apps. The one issue i face everytime is that the zip file that i create in the build using zip command is always rejected by iTunesConnect server as invalid binary. When i compress the .APP folder manually using Compress from the *Finder menu*, that archive is always accepted. The size of the zip files generated is slightly different.
Does anyone know what would be the command line equivalent of the Compress used by the Finder ? I want to automate this process so that someone does not have to do a manual compress before uploading it to iTunesConnect.
Thanks in advance,
-TRS

a Mac user wrote:
That is odd, are you sure you are using the command line correctly then? Because zip-ing from the command line should be the exact same one as from the utility in OS X.
It's not the same, though. As someone else pointed out, the Finder uses a program called "Archive Utility.app", found in "/System/Library/CoreServices". A quick look at the binary shows that it uses the following Unix command line apps:
/usr/bin/macbinary
/usr/bin/file
/usr/bin/tar
/usr/bin/applesingle
/usr/bin/binhex
/usr/bin/ditto
/usr/bin/gunzip
/usr/bin/bunzip2
/usr/bin/uudecode
/usr/bin/atos
I would have to look into how iTunesConnect accepts files.
iPhone apps are signed binaries, so if one byte is different when they arrive at the app store, they won't be accepted. The command line zip leaves out some information and so the package appears to have been tampered with and they're rejected.

Hi i am getting an error like this while installing Live Cycle Server " The file merge_modules\lc11_common_iam_zip does not exist This file is required sucessfullly run the Live Cycle Installer.Can any one help me on resolving this issue it would be of great help..thanks .

I think in your situation it would be worth trying the things listed under the event. It does have to do with FRS and it's easy to do. I've used it to fix journal errors after a server unexpectedly restarts and sysvol stops replicating. I
could see where it could fix your issue, and if it doesn't, you're out 5 minutes. :)
The listed registry key does not exist
Expand HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE.
Click down the key path:
"System\CurrentControlSet\Services\NtFrs\Parameters"
Double click on the value name
"Enable Journal Wrap Automatic Restore"

Script to install the SCCM client remotely

Hi everyone,
My customer wants me to realize a script that reads
from a computers.txt list containing all the company computers and that do the following steps:
1. Verify that the sccm client is not installed
2. If not present, install remotely the client
3. Verify that the WMI stack is healthy
Any help will be appreciate :-)
Thank you

If you're looking for a startup script Jason Sandys has written the best one
http://blog.configmgrftw.com/configmgr-client-startup-script/
As for reading the computers from a text file, that's ridiculous. You will find that nobody has ever done that. ConfigMgr is designed to manage tens (and hundreds) of thousands of devices in the simplest way possible. Compiling and maintaining a text file
of computer names is high maintenance and quite frankly crazy.

Intune, SCCM, and the Intune client installer

Hello,
Was wondering if there is a way to prevent users from Installing the Windows Intune Client agent?
Scenario:
SCCM 2012 R2 with integrated Windows Intune subscription. I have successfully enrolled an iPad and a Windows 8.1 computer. I was then able to download and install the Windows Intune Client agent on my Windows 8.1 device which redirected my device
to being managed by Intune exclusively, and no longer via SCCM. It also changed my System Center Endpoint Protection to Intune Endpoint protection. The only way to get it back was to go to the Intune Management Console and retire the device, which
triggers an uninstall of the Intune client. The good news is that it restored the previous information for the SCCM/Intune enrollment. However...
A significant and unfortunate side effect of this is that Endpoint protection was also removed as part of the Intune client uninstall leaving the computer without Anti-malware protection.
I would like to prevent this from happening for obvious reasons. In a BYOD scenario the user will have the permissions locally to do this and given its the same subscription for Intune there doesn't appear to be a way to ensure they cannot.
Am I missing something simple here?
Thanks!

I guess a couple of data points:
- Enrolling a Win 8.1 system using OMA-DM for management by ConfigMgr via Intune does not provide additional anti-virus above or beyond the built-in Windows Defender
- Removing the Intune agent reverts the system back to using Windows Defender the same as it was before Intune was installed
So, I would say that first, this statement is inaccurate: "leaving the computer without Anti-malware protection". And, also, there's no difference between the two states of pre-Intune agent installation and post-Intune agent uninstallation from an AV perspective.
As for explicitly preventing the Intune agent installation, obscurity is probably the the only way to go at this point to my knowledge -- simply don't tell folks about it or how to find it.
