Computer Name prompt with Country Code

Using SCCM 2012 R2.. 
Currently we have 21 global sites indicated by a two digit country code, for example United States US, United Kingdom, GB, Spain ES  etc.....
We are a Dell shop so we want the serial number as well.
Our end result should look like this. United States Computer
<CountryCode>-<Serialnumber>
US-23GHT54 for example.
What is the best way to have a drop down or prompt for country code in computer name field when a tech starts the OSD process??

Hi
You can have a look at two of my blog post. The first one will show you how to enable Powershell support in your boot images:
http://www.mimercon.dk/da/easyblog/entry/adding-powershell-support-in-configuration-manager-2012-r2-boot-images
And the second one will guide you through all the step required to implement a Powershell GUI prompting for a Computer Name if the machine is unknown:
http://www.mimercon.dk/da/easyblog/entry/prompt-for-computer-name-during-configmgr-2012-r2-os-deployment-1
I know that this is not exactly what you want but you would "only" need to create your own Powershell GUI where you can select the country code and append the serial number to get your computer name generated. And then you could just follow the
step in the second post and substitue my Prompt-Computer-Name GUI with your own.
If you know a bit about about Windows Forms and Powershell it is fairly easy to create even though it might be easy for me to say that :)
If you want I could create a basic GUI for you but you would have to be specific in how you would like it to look and I would need all the country codes you need in the drop-down box. You can find my e-mail at my web site.

  • Dial with country code as prefix won't work

    Hey
    The Sony Z1 latest ROM have the issue, it can't dial when the phone number don't have + before the country code.

    If you actually use the country code, it has to be prefixed with +  (or two zeros)
    If you are calling a number in your home network/country and don't want to use the + sign, then omit the whole country code at all.
    It is not possible to call a number along with country code without + or 00 before this code, and this is not some xperia thing, it simply works this way (unless your operator have some different policy but I can only guess about it).
    When everything have failed already, try to read the manual.

  • HUB showing contact number with country code and not with its name..blackberry Z10 STL100-2

    I have an issue with Text Messages and call lists, in my blackberry Z10 (STL100-2), which is, If I have not saved my contact numbers without country code, the msg may appear in local formate (w/o country code), and it also appear as International formate (another times), and though the number is same (only saperate is country code) in the hub, it appear as two conversation. for eg: if I sent txt to 9899100 (w/o country code), reply used to come as +960-9899100. or vice-versa.
    So its very difficult. and here i came for help.
    You might know a lot what we do not know as we do know a lot you do not know. Asking is the way to get to know....

    The movies were all on my SD card. They are also not backed up by Link which is why had them synced to my phone as a poor man's backup.
    So either Link did not backup the necessary licensing information in the main memory of my phone, or Link did not synchronize the necessary licensing information off my SD card. Either way I am stuck with 3 movies that I cannot play, because I can no longer find them in the BlackBerry World store to re-dowbload whatever licensing information is needed.
    I even just tried a media restore from Link because it was 138 MB in size (and in don't normally store anything on my phone's main storage), but alas no licensing information was restored.

  • Mac Terminal: computer name replaced with "virus"

    Hi, I'm having an issue where, in my Mac terminal, the space where the computer name is shown is instead replaced with the word "virus".
    virus:~<username>$
    Additionally, my internet connection either works terribly or not at all, and this only seems to happen at night.  I have no idea what's going on, but maybe somebody can shed some light on this?

    The most plausible explanation is that someone with access to your computer is messing with you. There's a number of ways of changing the computer's name shown at the command prompt (at least one doesn't involve touching your computer at all):
    1. If your computer is given a name by the DHCP server (your Internet gateway, or whatever you are using), an individual can modify the name that the DHCP service gives your computer and your computer will simply adopt that name when receives its IP address assignment. (Doesn't require access to your computer.)
    2. If your computer didn't get assigned a host name by DHCP, then the system will do a reverse DNS lookup on the IP address it gets. If the DNS server (or /etc/hosts) returns 'virus' as the host name for that IP address, then your system will use that name. (Doesn't require access to your computer.)
    3. If neither of the first two things happened, the system will use the name you set in the Sharing pane of System Preferences. (Someone can set this by simply walking up to your computer and setting it, or by logging in with an admin account and editing /Library/Preference/SystemConfiguration/preferences.plist).
    4. Someone could also edit the default prompt used by bash. The environment variable PS1 contains the prompt template string, the default being PS1='\h:\W \u\$ ' -- the '\h' means host name. You can do
    'echo $PS1' to see if it's set this way. PS1 can be set in /etc/profile, /etc/bashrc, ~/.profile, and ~/.bashrc
    There's a couple of other possibilities if you are integrating with Active Directory or Open Directory

  • Object name relation with t-code

    hi,
    this is jimmy, i am new in SAP, in security i am very confused that in PFCG when we give t-codes then in profile generator it creates list of object then how can we find which object name refers to which t-code so that we can change activity according to that.
    please help me out from this confusion
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Jimmy
    according to your ?
    in order to see which Objects will reflect to the selected
    T-Codes is like
    Example:- u have given 3 T-Codes in PFCG
    like SU01, SU53 , SU56 wright
    and when u Generate Profile Generator the PFCG will
    automatically pulls the conserened Objects and if we want to check which Objects belong to which T-Code is
    Go to SU24 (Transaction for conserned Object)
    give the T-Code which u have given and Execute
    and u will get displayed with the Objects under the conserened T-Code and here we will have 4 status
    like exatelly I am not remembering those Status
    here we will have one status like CM (CHECK & MAINTAINED) what happens like which ever the Object is checked & maintained those Object will be pulled into the PFCG Automatically and so u can see here and clarify
    and if u uncheck and select M those Object will not be pulled into the PFCG Tool
    with regards

  • Change computer name using partial serial number

    I'm starting to learn Powershell and I'm stuck trying to automate a computer name change. The code below works to rename the computer and reboot but I would like to shorten it and I'm not sure how. The serial number is 15 characters which makes the computer
    name with the prefix added 18 charactes long. How can I modify it so that it takes the last 10 of the serial number plus the prefix? We are using Powershell 4.
    The script changes the name to something like MCT1234567890ABCDE
    What I would like is MCT67890ABCDE
    $serial = Get-WmiObject win32_bios | select -expand serialnumber
    $newname = "MCT" + $serial
    Rename-Computer -NewName $newname -Force -Restart

    Hi,
    The serial number is 15 characters which makes the computer name with the prefix added 18 charactes long.
    You might run into problems with this, considering there's a 15 character limit on NetBIOS names:

  • FSCM: matching business partner and country code

    Hello FSCM community,
    simple task!? In FSCM i want to find all businesspartners matching a certain country code (e.g. all businesspartners with country code equals 'FR'. Since kna1 doesn't provide the data wanted, there has to be a different table.
    Questions:
    1. is there a standard transaction to find those BPs?
    2. what are the technical / table-/view/...../-names in FSCM to find those BPs by transparent table?
    Looking forward to hear from You!
    Thanks in advance!
    Gunther

    Hi,
    Look at table BUT020.  Here enter the partner number (field PARTNER), where you will get the business partner Address number (field ADDRNUMBER).  Input this address number in ADRC table and you will get the country in field LAND1.
    There is no one single table from where you will get this information, you will need to build a query.
    Cheers.

  • Computer name changes incrementally (1, 2, 3...)

    Dear Apple Friends,
    I have an issue that is affecting all the Macs on my home network: 3 MacBooks (wireless) and an iMac (hardwired) connected to an Apple Airport Extreme dual-band 802.11n/a/b/g 5Ghz/2Ghz wireless router. All the Macs are running Yosemite 10.10, I am running firmware v7.6.4 on the Airport (latest version). We have turned on Back to my Mac, File Sharing, and Screen Sharing (all are used pretty regularly) in the Sharing screen.
    So here is what is happening...
    All the Macs on our network are having their computer names changed with the suffix of (1), (2), all the way to 6 now.
    I have tried resetting our Airport router (turn off/on again) and that seems to stop it for a day but then it starts again.
    A few days ago, I did a factory reset on the Airport router per the instructions on the Apple website (hold down reset until it blinks constantly) to clear the router. Sure enough, the names started changing again after about a day.
    Sometimes, I will change the name back, and it will rename itself again automatically right after I change it. i.e. John's MacBook Pro => John's MacBook Pro (1)
    I have gone so far as to reboot every Mac on the network, shutting off the router, then turning it on again, and the issue returns. I am going to try and set up a DHCP reservation next and see if that helps.
    Has anyone else run across this? If so, is this a bug or is there something I'm missing here? Thanks you for your time.

    To "fix" I:
    First, I turned off networking which was WiFi in my circumstance.
    Next, I named my computer back to the original desired name in the "Sharing" system preference without the (n).
    Then I added a "--no-namechange" parameter in the /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.discoveryd.plist.
    Unloaded and loaded the deamon:
    sudo launchctl unload -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.discoveryd.plist
    sudo launchctl load -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.discoveryd.plist
    Last, I reconnected to the network.
    Now when I connect to the network instead of getting something like below in the Console.app:
    "discoveryd: Basic Bonjour Changing computer name from <hostname> to <hostname> (2)"
    This appears in the Console.app:
    "discoveryd: Basic Bonjour Would have changed computer name from <hostname> to <hostname> (2), but it's disabled"
    I could not find a Yosemite bug filed https://bugreport.apple.com/, but this site helped me hack my solution:

  • "Computer name" screensaver keeps coming back!

    You'd need to download it from Apple:

  • Lumia 800- country code (e.g. +852, +86) cannot be...

    After upgraded to 7.8, i found that the phone call with country code cannot be recognized. 
    For example, a contact "John" with number : +852-999999 is saved in contact. 
    In before, no matter the incoming number is 999999 or +852-999999 or +86 999999, it can still be recognized. 
    (the phone can smartly determine which part is the country code)
    however, after upgraded to 7.8, it cannot be recognized anymore. 
    Vice versa, if I save 999999 for John in the contact, if i am overseas and receiving the call e.g. +86-999999
    it will show "unknown" because +86-999999 is not saved in contact. 
    I have tried the same sim card on another WP7 phone, iOS phone and android, it is normal (same as what i use before)
    This is very annoying. 
    This problem is never found before upgrade. 
    If anyone have idea, please feel free to advice. 
    Thank you 

    Hi all,
    Thanks for your feedback and patience. In order for Lumia 800s with product code 059M539 to be updated to the current firmware revision we would like to ask you to visit a Nokia Care Point to have your device updated.
    Please make sure you have your contacts and calendars synced with the services you use (Hotmail/Google/Exchange) and you have all your media files synchronized with your PC (through Zune) or Mac (through the connector). In case of a required hard reset these files and personal data will be deleted from the Lumia. After the update you can use the app Reinstaller to download all your free and paid for apps back to your Lumia.
    Again, thanks for your patience.

    Or were you referring to the one in the old temporary replacement device? Would that even be compatible with the newer phones?
    The one that wasn't working had a 4G LTE SIM card in it. It should have usable in the replacement Razr. It was only until I read the OP a third time this morning that there might be a third device involved. It would be nice if people would give more specifics on what devices are active at what time.
