Decline and update using SCCM 2012

On WSUS you can search and update and then decline not required updates.
There is a way to Decline updates using the Software Update Rol on SCCM 2012?
I need to hide some unnecesary updates from the SCCM-SoftwareUpdate view, and I can't do it by using the filtering options that comes with this view.
Any ideas?
Thank you for your help.

No. There is explicit way to decline an update and no real reason to either. If you need to, you can create a sub-folder under the All Update node and move the un-wanted updates there.

Deploy Java Updates using SCCM 2012 SP1 and SCUP 2011

What is the best way to deploy Java updates using sccm 2012 SP1 and SCUP 2011?

I didn´t find Kent´s blog useful when talking about Java. I can deploy Adobe products fine, but I have to import Java manually because not having Shavlik certificate. So with that said, I have the fallowing problem;
I have full offline installer unpacked, .msi file and Data1.cab. When I´m importing these binaries to SCUP, I only can point to .msi. Doing that, installation fails in client side fails because of lack of data1.cab fine, which is the main file.
Should I use some other downloaded files of Java? I couldn´t find any Java-update-file only type of files to download.

How would I rollback or remove a problematic software update using SCCM 2012?

How would I rollback or remove a problematic software update using SCCM 2012?
Primarily I'm thinking these patches would be Windows Vista/7/8 OS patches, but would include other Microsoft updates as well (eg. Office, etc.).
Thanks,

Hi,
You need to uninstall it using software distribution like a package/program, here is a script that can help you with the uninstallation.

Deploy Internet explorer 11 with latest updates using SCCM 2012

Hello,
I'd like deploy IE11 with the latest updates included. The reason is that I want the IE 11 enterprise mode to be available as soon as IE11 gets installed.
I don't want to wait an update scan cycle to trigger the installation of the updates.
What is the best way to achieve that using SCCM 2012 ?
Regards,
Michel

Hi,
You have to capture the installation package with latest update by using IEAK 11 on the computer which has the IE11 with this feature.
GP to enable this feature:
Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Internet Explorer\Let users turn on and use Enterprise Mode from the Tools menu
This is only for Windows 7 computer.
As I mentioned above, for Windows 8.1, we can only deploy Windows 8.1 update 1 to add this feature to IE11, since there is no separated update can be installed for IE11 on Windows 8.1 to implement this.
Windows 8.1
Update (32-bit version)
Windows 8.1
Update (64-bit version)

Installing MS Office Updates using SCCM 2012 patch management.

Hi,
We have SCCM 2012 in our customer environment, we would like to deploy MS office 2012 non-security updates using SCCM patch management. Can someone help me how to configure non-security updates on SCCM 2012 and deploy the same.
Regardsm
Madhan

The process of deploying non-security updates and security updates are the same.
As a side note:
To reduce the numbers of required updates, you can also download service packs, and other updates (msp files) and copy them to the update folder of your Office installation source. Then they will be installed as part of the Office deployment process.

Windows 7 Deployment using SCCM 2012

I am installing Windows 7 Enterprise 64bit on HP Desktops and Laptops using SCCM 2012 task sequence. I captured an image from the reference computer using capture media. The image works fine on Hp Desktops but when I install the same image on HP laptops,
I get an error message right at the end "Windows Setup could not configure Windows to run on this computer's hardware". I captured another image with plain Windows 7 Enterprise without SP1, updates and drivers. it works perfectly fine on all desktops
and laptops both. Below is the setupact and setuperr error logs. Much appreciated.

Hi,
From your error log, we could see the root is the incorrect driver.
How did you get the driver in your first image? If you enable "PersistAllDeviceInstalls" configuration when you capture the image, all Plug and Play devices in reference computer are uninstalled during the generalize pass and then reinstalled
during the specialize pass.
However, it‘s not always applied to your laptop.
Thus I suggest you download the proper driver or change the BIOS hard disk drive setting to IDE to check the result.
Warning: This procedure may involve changing your hard disk drive settings in the BIOS. Incorrect changes to the BIOS of your computer can result in serious problems. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems that result from changes to the
BIOS can be resolved. Change the BIOS settings at your own risk. Incorrect or corrupted BIOS settings can cause startup problems or shutdown problems.

Windows Updates constantly failing and reverting after SCCM 2012 R2 pushes out updates

Hi folks,
I wonder could anyone help me with a strange problem I am having!
We use SCCM 2012 R2 and I am trying to roll out updates to a Windows 2008 R2 Standard 64 bit server.
When I deploy the updates to the server they get to the server and install but during the reboot it says Windows Modules Installer for a while then shows the failure configuring Windows Updates, reverting changes screen.
I’ve tried the suggestions of disabling 'Windows Management Instrumentation' and 'Windows Modules Installer' and renaming the repository folder but still no joy.
If I use Windows Update to install the updates the updates do go on but then when I add it to the collection in SCCM to push out the patches it sees the server as if the updates aren’t installed and begins doing the installs.
After the patches installs using SCCM and when the server is rebooted it goes back into the loop of saying Windows Modules Installer and reverts the updates and strips out the patches again.
I was hoping that when the Windows Updates were installed via Windows Update and once I put the server into the collection to push out the updates to the server it would have shown that the updates are already installed on the server and show that server
as being compliant in SCCM but unfortunately that isn’t happening.
It sights a couple of errors in the Setup event logs on the offending server: -
For multiple patches - Package KBXXXXXXX failed to be changed to the Installed state. Status: 0x80070643
For multiple patches - Initiating changes for package KBXXXXXXX. Current state is Invalid Resolved. Target state is Installed. Client id: WindowsUpdateAgent.
After doing some research,
0x80070643 refers to a .Net Framework issue so I’ve ran a .Net Repair tool but that didn’t work either so I’m running out of ideas so any help would be greatly appreciated on how I can get this sever updated using SCCM and showing as compliant.
Thanks,
Bonemister

Hi Torsten,
Thanks for your reply!
I was afraid you were going to say that as it just doesn't make sense that when I install the update using Windows Update via the Ire-nternet and when the install and re-scan no updates are required. It is only when I ask SCCM to check for patches
that it sees updates are missing and installed the updates before the OS reverts when.
Is there a way in SCCM to remove the record of what patches have been installed onto a particular server? I tried deleted the server out of SCCM then applying the Windows Updates via the web then added the server back into SCCM and see did it pick
up the newly installed updates on the server.
The thing is I don't think that WindowsUpdate.log will show any failures as Windows update is showing as no more updates required. It is just when SCCM installs that patches that the problem happens so that is what is leading me to think it is an SCCM
problem.
My main goal is to get the updates into the server and for it so show as complient!
I'll check back through the even logs again. Are they any SCCM logs that show patches failing to install and why?
Thanks again,
Bonemister

How to update Office 365 using SCCM 2012 R2?

Hi,
I am using SCCM 2012 R2 and Office 365 ProPlus.
At products list (Software Update Point Components Properties) there is not Office 365.
Office 365 automatically updates from Internet.
I need to know the following:
How to disable Internet automatic updates at Office 365
How to deploy updates for Office 365 from SCCM.
Thanks in advance!

Funny thing you can't deploy those updates via WSUS and/ or ConfigMgr. See for more information:
http://blogs.technet.com/b/office_resource_kit/archive/2014/01/21/managing-updates-for-office-365-proplus-part-1.aspx
Also, make sure to read part 2 as it provides dome guidance on controlled testing of those updates.

Distribute Customer Updates in SCCM 2012 (CU's) using a Task Sequence

I want to utilize a Task Sequence to Distribute Customer Updates to SCCM 2012 Clients. I currently have 2 collections for pre-CU 4 clients, one for 32 Bit Clients (x86) , one for 64 Bit Clients (x64). I have a package pertinent to each collection
which I use to distribute the updates.
However, instead of segregating them by collection, I would like to have one big collection, and have the Task Sequence sort out which package should load on which collection.
I've tried using the RUN COMMAND LINE, and INSTALL PACKAGE options to no avail. Is there a way to utilize a Task Sequence for this undertaking, or should I just continue the way I'm currently doing it.
Thanks ,
Dan

You can set Collection Variables for the two collections, then add running condition in the Task Sequence Steps for corresponding collections.

Deploy Java and Oracle updates using SCCM 2007 Software Updates

Hi Team,
I am using SCCM 2007 to deploy software updates on all my servers. Now i want deploy updates fro third party tools like Adobe, Java etc..Please suggest me on how to deploy these updates using SCCM.
I am looking for other simple solution than SCUP 2011. Please suggest.
Thanks
Siva

Hi,
SCUP 2011 would be the way to do it or a package/program. There are commercial software solutions that plugins to configuration Manager like Secunia
http://secunia.com/vulnerability_scanning/corporate/sc2012_plugin/ ,Solarwinds
http://www.solarwinds.com/patch-manager.aspx and Shavlik
http://www.shavlik.com/products/scupdates/ that offer a subscription of updates for these products for a cost of course.

Adobe Creative Cloud Enterprise Deployment Issues using SCCM 2012 R2

Hi,
I have been trying to deploy Adobe Creative Cloud Enterprise to Windows 8.1 machines that are identical, using SCCM 2012 R2.
The Adobe package seems fine, because it seems to deploy successfully to some machines. And SCCM 2012 R2 has been configured correctly, as I can deploy other software using it, and again, it deploys Adobe CC successfully to some of the machines.
I have tried comparing the package that is downloaded on the test machine/client machine, with the original package on the distribution point, using Beyond Compare, and there are no differences.
I have contacted Adobe Enterprise Support, and they asked me to send to them log files from Event Viewer, the msi installer, and other Adobe logs, from the machine that failed the deployment. However, after Adobe studying them, they told me that they could not identify any problems... Strange, because I could have sworn that I saw error 1603 pop up over 20 times on different machines indicating that the 'Set-up.dat' file had a problem with it.
After all the testing on over 20 identical machines (same hardware/same software), using different configurations on SCCM 2012 R2 and the client machines, I still can't seem to have a reliable solution to deploying Adobe CC.
The fact that it deploys successfully on one machine and fails on another, or sometimes deploy to two machines and fail on another (simultaneously), is something that I don't understand.
Another thing is that, if I retry the deployment 10-15 times after it failed the first time, it might go through...
Adobe Enterprise Support asked me if they could remote into a machine that failed the deployment to have a look at it and I agreed to that option, but it seems like my issue has been ignored because they never got back to me.
Has anyone had this kind of problem or anything similar before?
I need to be able to deploy this remotely to 100+ machines. So installing manually is not an option.
Any help is appreciated.
This was posted in the wrong section a few days ago. I'm hoping I can get some help here.
Case Number: 1862659812
UPDATE: I spoke to Adobe Customer Support and after 1.5 hours on the phone with a remote session going on, problem was still not solved or identified. Additional log files have been sent and now I'm waiting for a call back.

Hi Robert,
We seem to be having a very similar issue. Our installs would randomly fail with error code 1603 and an error message about a fault in Set-up.dat. Failure rate was near 95% on our 900 machines. Adobe Support and Karl having been looking into our issues but so far no solution has been found.
Having done a lot of investigating we've managed to deploy our package using a schedule task running as a domain admin. This is a nasty solution and we don't intend on using this permanently, but we needed to get the package out.
Are you seeing any of the following:
Entries in PDApp.log:
[FATAL] | | ASU | DeploymentManager | DeploymentManager | | | 2900 | The Bootstrapper Process is (5).Stopping the installation process.

We noticed that the folder C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\caps doesn't get created on the machines were the install fails, so error message is correct in that there isn't a Media_db.db. Sysinterals Process Monitor seems to show that the setup tried to create the folder/files but they don't actually get created. Copying a Media_db into the folder from another machine seems to allow the installation to almost finish, but unsurprisingly you end up with problems later on.

Use sccm 2012 R2 Toolkit on cu1

Hi :)
Is it ok to use sccm 2012 R2 toolkit on updated CU1 install or should I wait for updated toolkit verision ?
Best regards
Nenad

To tag onto Phil's answer, CUs don't change the (major) version of the product in any way -- they are simply a collection of hotfixes that do not change core functionality and thus do not affect tools designed to run with that (major) version. There are
always possibilities for bugs of course, but unless someone specifically identifies a bug, there's no plan to update the tools for CU1 because there's nothing to update. In fact, they've never had to update the tools for any previous CUs because of any problems.

Automaitc Updates through SCCM 2012 not showing up on the updates status

Hi,
I have configured Automatic Update rule on SCCM 2012 and it works fine but on the client machine i see this.
This is the update status it shows which means updates are not being installed since long time.
But when i see the update history it shows me the latest updates installed.
Why would this happen? please suggest.
Regards,
Maqsood
Maqsood Mohammed Senior Systems Engineer MCITP-Enterprise Admin & ITILv3 Foundation Certified

Hi,
That is as expected as the updates are installed using SCCM and not the Windows Update Agent, if you deploy a client using SCCM OSD and install software updates using SCCM and not WSUS/Windows Update it will actually say:
"Updates were installed: Never"

Error while deploying Windows 2008 R2 using SCCM 2012 R2

I am trying to deploy Window 2008 R2 image (captured from a reference machine) using SCCM 2012 R2. I have integrated MDT 2013 with SCCM 2012 R2 and created an MDT task sequence. During deployment, towards the end of Applying image.wim, it gives me
an error that task sequence failed with the error code 0x80070002. And then the system reboots. After reboot, I am able to login to the Windows Server. It seems to work fine, but there are no applications etc installed. Also the _SMSTS log folder is still
present in the C drive. And in the smsts.log file, i can see errors like failed to copy unattend.xml file. Please help me.

Hi,
Error code 0x80070002, it means the system cannot find file specified.

What best way to turn on all computers remotely using sccm 2012 sp 1

what best way to turn on all computers remotely using sccm 2012
and what the difference between wake on lan and out of band service point role

Hey!!! I am a 1E engineer and MVP... we started the power management movement with our very first software product, created around 12 or so years ago, called 1E WakeUp. The complete solution which manages power on (integrated with SCCM, or stand alone if
you are not an SCCM shop) and power off (under a tightly controlled process) is called
NightWatchman
Here is a
recent blog post I authored that was the last in a series documenting the entire wake-up process including how it integrates with SCCM or stood up standalone. It contains links to those earlier posts that explain our entire technology, so you will likely
want to read all of them in order for a full understanding of our technology. It works incredibly well, is the most mature solution in the industry, and is extremely simple to install with minimal resources.
If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to me privately
