Deploy Lync 2013 Via SCCM 2012

Dear,
I wants to deploy Microsoft Lync 2013 via SCCM 2012, I have created a new deployment package based on MSI file to install Microsoft Lync 2013 for company machines, during the installation package will install for clients computer perfectly but instead of
install automatically to users, every time message coming user should do it manually for example user should accept the terms of the agreement, kindly I need a way to solve this issue, I need Lync 2013 automatically install without users doing anything, please
see attached snapshot.

Make sure that you are using the right command line using your newly created MSP
ex: setup.exe /adminfile "Lync_Updated.msp"
As proposed, update your DP so that your MSP gets distributed.
You can also follow this guide if you're still experiencing difficulties.

Trouble Deploying Windows updates via SCCM 2012

Hello
I'm testing Windows updates via SCCM 2012 - I have successfully deployed updates to 4 test PC's.
I then added another 15 Test PC's into the same group - Not one of them receive updates (they're all within the same Domain and even in the same room)
I reviewed "UpdatesDeployment.log -
1. I highlighted some points that stood out to me
2. I have the Maintenance window set to 24hours for this test

Hi,
You could also check Windowsupdate.log on the client.

Deploy a shortcut via SCCM 2012 R2

Hello, I have a package that installs a program in C: \ Application but it does not create an application shortcut on desktop.
Is there any of meteodo to deploy the shortcut via SCCM?
Atenciosamente Julio Araujo

You could enable verbose logging for the MSI installation.
Then install the MSI using the local system account with PSEXEC -i -s cmd.exe
http://richardbalsley.com/a-simple-tip-to-test-software-installation-using-the-local-system-account
Have a look at the log file and compare it to a log file installed with your own credentials.
msiexec /i "C:\MyPackage\Example.msi" /L*V "C:\log\example.log"

Deploying Office 2013 through SCCM 2012 SP1 leaves Office 2010 Tools and Sharepoint behind

I apologize in advance, but I have searched similar topics to this, but I haven't seen an answer yet that describes where and how to accomplish this. I'm also a bit new to SCCM and I'm still finding the nuances.
Scenario: Running SCCM 2012 SP1. Office 2013 32bit is added as an application and deployed properly with an accompanied .msp file stored in the source folder. The configuration is to have Office
2010 uninstalled silently. The deployment runs flawless and the user doesn't know otherwise. Success in anyone's book, right?
Except... Office 2010 Tools and SharePoint Workspace 2010 are left over. Manual uninstallation is not an option. This is for hundreds of PC's in several global locations.
I've seen it hinted to write a script. That's fine I suppose, but what do I write, where do I store the script, and can I have SCCM2012 automatically run it before the installation of 2013?
Our favorite IT tool Google hasn't quite returned what I'm looking for. Does anyone here have ideas or perhaps have experienced a similar issue?
Thanks,

1st, save the following content as a XML file on a server share, named as "config.xml".
<Configuration Product="ProPlus">
<Display Level="none" CompletionNotice="no" SuppressModal="yes" AcceptEula="yes" />
<Setting Id="SETUP_REBOOT" Value="Never" />
</Configuration>
Run the following script during or before the installation of Office 2013:
"C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\OFFICE14\Office Setup Controller\setup.exe" /uninstall ProPlus /config \\servershare\Config.xml
For more SCCM specific topics, we'd recommend you to visit the SCCM forums at:

Deploying ipa file via SCCM 2012 R2 / Intune

Hello Experts,
We recently set up a Windows Intune Subscription in our Configuration Manager 2012 R2 Environment. The MDM part (Configuration Items) and deploying app store deep links is working without any problems.
In our company we have a native iOS App which is currently distributed via a website. (Not App Store!). I tried to distribute the app via configuration manager 2012 r2 but the app doesn't show up in the company portal even after a day. I made the following
steps to distribute the app:
1. Received the ipa and plist File from the Developer.
2. Added the application to configuration manager 2012 r2
3. Deployed the application to my intune user collection (DP: manage.microsoft.com / Purpose: Available)
Did i miss any importent step? One thing i can say is that the app is not signed with our APN Certificate which is used in the Intune Subscription. According to our developer this should not be neccessary?!
Thanks for any advice.

I redeployed the app and the following entries were in the logs:

Trying to deploy a VB Script via sccm 2012 R2

Hello All
This is my first attempt at deploying a script via SCCM 2012 R2 and I seem to be stuck. Essentially what this script does is map a printer. The script on its own works fine. Meaning it works when I double click it and also running it from the command
line. Its when I try to use in sccm things go down hill. I have tried the following from the command line in the package properties.
\\my-sccm-server\Sources\Applications\VBSripts\cscript.exe Impact.vbs
\\my-sccm-server\Sources\Applications\VBSripts\Impact.vbs
Phil Balderos

looks good :)
You can check execmgr.log on the client to monitor the install as it is running.
Thank Richk,
Still no luck. Here is the output from execmgr.log. Its saying that is completed but nothing ever happens. I am about ready to throw in the towel on this one but I just feel like that is should work because its such a simple script.
Set WshNetwork = CreateObject("WScript.Network")
WshNetwork.AddWindowsPrinterConnection "\\srv-gtt-papercut\followme"
WshNetwork.SetDefaultPrinter "\\srv-gtt-papercut\followme"
Phil Balderos
Is the script running as an Admin ,if so then you likely set the printer up for the local system user account and not anyone else.

Lync 2013 x64 silent client deployment via SCCM 2012 SP1

Greetings everyone!
I ran into a problem with Lync 2013 x64 silent deployment.
I need to provide every workstation with Lync 2013 client, so i decided to use deployment via SCCM 2012 sp1.
I created 2 msp files with OCT, one based on x86 Office 2013 Proplus, and other based on x64 Office 2013 Proplus.
Added them as applications to sccm software library.
Deployment of Lync 2013 x86 application was a success with over than 80% compliance.
But all Lync 2013 x64 automatic installations finish with different errors.
I created special device collection for workstations with office 2010 x64 and 2013 x64, because i can't install other architecture products once it has x64 product installed.
My membership query-rules for this collection:
Office 2013 x64
select SMS_R_SYSTEM.ResourceID,SMS_R_SYSTEM.ResourceType,SMS_R_SYSTEM.Name,SMS_R_SYSTEM.SMSUniqueIdentifier,SMS_R_SYSTEM.ResourceDomainORWorkgroup,SMS_R_SYSTEM.Client from SMS_R_System inner join SMS_G_System_INSTALLED_SOFTWARE on SMS_G_System_INSTALLED_SOFTWARE.ResourceId
= SMS_R_System.ResourceId where UPPER(SMS_G_System_INSTALLED_SOFTWARE.SoftwareCode) = "{90150000-0011-0000-1000-0000000FF1CE}"
Office 2010 x64
select SMS_R_SYSTEM.ResourceID,SMS_R_SYSTEM.ResourceType,SMS_R_SYSTEM.Name,SMS_R_SYSTEM.SMSUniqueIdentifier,SMS_R_SYSTEM.ResourceDomainORWorkgroup,SMS_R_SYSTEM.Client from SMS_R_System inner join SMS_G_System_INSTALLED_SOFTWARE on SMS_G_System_INSTALLED_SOFTWARE.ResourceId
= SMS_R_System.ResourceId where UPPER(SMS_G_System_INSTALLED_SOFTWARE.SoftwareCode) = "{90140000-0011-0000-1000-0000000FF1CE}"
My application deployment type points to setup.exe in office 2013 x64 installation folder, where i created msp file in updates folder via OCT and edited config.xml file in proplus.ww folder.
So my installation program looks like this setup.exe /adminfile updates\1lync.msp /config proplus.ww\config.xml
The same configuration works with Lync 2013 x86 deployment, except other setup folders.
When i try running installation program setup.exe with /adminfile and /config parameters locally, it installs successfully without errors or warnings.
I'm trying to find out problem source, does anyone have ideas what I am doing wrong?
Also i'm trying to reduce office 2013 installation folder size, what subfolders are necessary for Office 2013 proplus installation (still installing only lync with common files and tools)? Because now 3.5 GB package is quite hard to distribute to sccm secondary
sites with deployment point.
Thanks in advance.

Lync 2013 client deployment via SCCM 2012 forcing restart

All,
I am attempting to deploy the Lync 2013 x86 client via SCCM 2012 to 158 machines running the Office 2010 suite. My package runs, and the installs complete but they are forcing a restart after the install even though I have gone in to everything that I can
think of to tell the install not to force a restart. I am a newb in the ways of SCCM so I have been self teaching, and I may have missed something.
I have gone into the config.xml and changed the value SETUP_REBOOT to NEVER.
In the program properties I have RUN set as HIDDEN, and AFTER RUNNING set to NO ACTION REQUIRED.
Is there something that I am missing to stop the users machine from restarting after the install completes?

Great, unfortunately it will be because files (usually shared DLLs) are in use as Office is opened, despite it being an older version.
Agree it's not optimal, I usually just tell clients that they will need to reboot, or that it will push out overnight (when I schedule it) and their computer will restart, so make sure they save everything.

Deploying Lync 2013 client and SCCM Detection method

So I am deploying the stand alone Lync 2013 client via SCCM 2012 R2, I have used OCT to create a .MSP, and I am trying to import it into SCCM. However, I am curious as to what others are using for the Detection method? Normally I would just
use the MSI code, but since there is no single MSI, that is not possible with this particular version? I'm not sure what the best method would be, Option 1 is to find a registry key that is installed by Lync, or Option 2, use a file, maybe Lync.exe under
the Program Files?

From the testing I've done Lync creates this reg location...
HKLM>Software>Microsoft>Office>15.0>Lync
Try using one of the keys in there, or you could use the file version but not sure if this would change with updates.

How to deploy MS Visio & MS Project via SCCM 2012

Dear friend,
Please let me know the How to deploy MS Visio & MS Project via SCCM 2012, step by step
Thanks

You need to utilize Office Customize Tooltik to build config.xml, then distribute the config.xml with setup file. Below are some documents talking about this.

MS SQL Server 2012 Updates via SCCM 2012 R2

I'm trying to determine if SCCM 2012 R2 can manage and deploy Hotfixes, Updates and Service packs for SQL Server 2012. Can someone please confirm that SCCM can manage this, how to download SQL Server Hotfixes, Updates and Service Packs into SCCM and where
I can find instructions on setting up my MS SQL Server computers to receive SQL updates from SCCM.
Thanks.

ConfigMgr absolutely can deploy updates and service packs for SQL. You just need to choose the versions you want in Software Update Point Products and Classifications. It's no different than deploying any other Microsoft updates.

Is it a good idea? I don't think so. I think SQL updates should be part of a carefully planned (and tested) manual upgrade.

App-V 5.0 SP2 user applications published via SCCM 2012 to VDI workstations with roaming only

Hi,
The environment consists of App-V 5.0 SP2 (KB2956985) user based applications published via SCCM 2012 to Windows 7 VDI snapshotted workstations that are reset at user logoff.
When a user logs on the SCCM 2012 client initiates App-V client package publishing. After a couple of minutes after logon the shortcuts appear and the user can launch their applications.
The issue is that at logoff, even with roaming enabled, the publishing information disappears. This causes the next logon process for that user to repeat, the applications are not available until the SCCM client has completed it's publishing cycle.
Roaming profiles are implemented. %APPDATA% is redirected to a UNC path. The following registry key is set
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\AppV\Client\Integration\PreserveUserIntegrationsOnLogin=1
U-EV, global publishing of applications, and AppLocker rules are not an option. Also, I have read this already - http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn659478.aspx#BKMK_PE
I do not want to wait for the SCCM client to kick in prior to the user applications being available. What do I need to roam or run to create a seamless transition for the user between sessions?
Eddie.

Hi Tywin (bad username considering the last GoT Episode ;))
If you ask Microsoft, they always recommend using SCCM for deploying App-V packages and reuse your current SCCM infrastructure if that is already in place. Problem is, as you now experience, is that there is some big caveats both in regards to publishing
time and to roaming of settings.
As Nické states I would suggest looking into the Full Infrastructure Model for App-V 5.x, which gives you much better performance in what I call "from no apps" to "being able to click the shortcut" - the add and publishing phase. If you don't have the time/budget/whatever
to start looking into that, you could look into some community tools like App-V Scheduler which is developed specific by Citrix guys to ease the publishing and management in a Citrix world.
Microsoft have a great article about Performance Guidelines, which you have read, but it mostly presumes you work with Full Infrastructure. Have you looked into Steve Thomas' session from TechEd NA? It talks about "implementation trends".

How to deploy .msp files through SCCM 2012

Team,
Can you please help me to deploy .msp files through SCCM 2012?
Regards,
Mahadev Nitture

I tried to search and got few things but didn't understand to proceed with.
Please help me with this.
Regards,
Mahadev Nitture
You can use a typical/standard application deployment method (just a minor change because of MSPfile).
Here are some guides, for typical application deployment:

http://www.gerryhampsoncm.blogspot.ie/2013/03/sccm-2012-sp1-step-by-step-guide-part_7075.html
Familiarise yourself with these methods, then return to the example suggested by Torsten for specific steps for MSP:

Latitude E6330 BSOD via SCCM 2012 R2 OSD

Hi All,
I'm currently struggling to build some Latitude E6330 laptops via SCCM 2012 R2 CU3 OSD . I'm getting a BSOD with error code 0000007E after the drivers are applied and the laptop reboots.
I've built nearly 100 OptiPlex desktops without issue from the same server. I've tried both the A09 and A10 E6330 driver CABs, and both have the same issue. I was having an issue even building the boot image with these drivers, but removed a faulty driver
before importing them into SCCM (Conexant USB Modem driver) which resolved that issue. I'm assuming that the removal of this driver wouldn't be causing the BSOD - but I'm currently trying to find a replacement driver to see if that resolves it anyway.
I've tried using 'Auto Apply Drivers' and 'Apply Driver Package' in the task sequence, using a WMI query and also without a WMI query to no avail. I've blown away all previous drivers, imported only the A09 and then blew away + imported only the A10
drivers, rebuilt the driver packages and re-added to the boot image numerous times. Yep I've been distributing/updating distribution points each time too :)
Unfortunately I can't get onto the laptop to check the smsts/setupact/etc etc logs because it blue screens even in safe mode.
My last resort will be to add just the network+HDD drivers, and then slowly add drivers until I figure out what driver is causing the BSOD. Unfortunately this would be quite a lengthy procedure, so I'm hoping that someone has had a similar problem and
may know which driver could be causing me this grief.. Or perhaps could point me in a different direction as to what may be causing this issue....
Thanks for your time.

Are you trying to deploying Windows 7 to the laptops?
If so does your WIM file include the platform update (how long has it been since you created / updated it)? If not then you may need to update / capture a new wim and try again.
A lot of newer drivers will cause this sort of problem if you try and inject them into an older wim file.
If this isn't the case, then I have had this happen to me a long time ago with a webcam driver so maybe exclude these drivers first? A long shot though.
Cheers
Damon
