Deploy SCCM 2012 Monthly updates (not with ADR), updates get expired

Hi,
I’m looking howto use monthly updates in SCCM 2012 R2. This post is showing howto with automatic deployment rules (ADR), but I’d need to do this without ADR.
http://www.windows-noob.com/forums/index.php?/topic/6799-using-system-center-2012-configuration-manager-part-9-deploying-monthly-updates/
What I do:
1.filter on updates I need
2.add them to an update group
3.distribute these updates as mandatory to our default windows 7 collection
Now everything works fine until some updates in the update group get expired. Then no updates are distributed anymore. Please advise.

Jan Hoedt

Leave the expired updates and group the remaining updates (create software group fo these) and deploy to your clients.
Search the updates in sccm console: Add criteria: Expired NO
Have a look in this post (Software updates deployment without ADR)

SCCM 2012 Software Updates not installing (bothh Windows patches & 3rd party updates)

Using SCCM 2012 R2, I am having a problem getting Windows updates to install. Applications published to people work, and basic software installations published to machines for a straight install work. However, both Windows patches and Adobe patches
fail to install on clients. I have imported the Adobe catalog into SCUP, and publish through WSUS. I can see the Adobe patches and Windows patches in SCCM, and can publish them. However, in deployment status out of 4 machines in my test group the Windows patches
installed on 1 and the other 3 are still in Unknown status with category of "Client check passed/Active". However, none of them are installing the patch - they don't even seem to try. All of those are Windows 7 PCs, incidentally. On Adobe patches,
one PC fails and the other 3 machines still sit in Unknown status. Certificates are distributed,
Any ideas what might cause the deployment to not push some targets, even when it's past the deadline?
Thanks,
Andy Maslin

An unknown status means that the clients are not reporting back to ConfigMgr correctly. This is often due to the WUA not pointing at the correct WSUS instance. You can verify this by examining the WUAHandler.log on one of those clients and it will clearly
indicate an issue with this which in turn is often due to a group policy overriding the ConfigMgr behavior.

OS-Deployment to virtual servers with SCVMM 2012 R2 vs SCCM 2012 R2 or integration with both?

Hi,
OS-Deployment to virtual servers with SCVMM 2012 R2 vs SCCM 2012 R2 or integration with both?
Is SCCM just for physical servers, and SCVMM for virtual?
What are benefits of integrating them?

Can I go to SCCM 2007 after deploying SCCM 2012?

About a month ago I deployed SCCM 2012 in my Lab environment.
The testing I conduct supports a Security Engineering team.
I’m running 100 servers, 2003 & 2008 R2, and 40 XP and Win7 Clients (most Win7).
After a month of troubleshooting it still will not function correctly.
30% of the clients show failed Client Health status, I can’t get the system to auto install via GPO, and of the simple MS updates I’ve pushed, only about 20% clients work.
I’ve had a ticket with MS open for over a month now on the Client install piece but they have largely ignored me.
It’s been two weeks since I spoke with a MS tech, and that was after requesting the case be elevated.
After bouncing a few emails back and forth the Tier II Tech has never called me during my work Hrs.

Is it possible to install SCCM 2007 once you have expanded the Schema to install SCCM 2012?
Absent that I’ll be forced to scrap SCCM and go with WSUS for updates for the short run.
This issue is starting to really impact production issues and has to get either solved or bypassed.

I'd recommend that you run the Schema Expansion tool that comes with Configuration Manager 2007.
The reason being is that 2012 has done away with the SLP, meaning that this may or may not be included in it's version of the schema extensions. However, Configuration Manager 2012 does not have anything 'new' in its schema expansion, so you can safely 'downgrade'
to 2007, but as I said, run the 2007 schema extension tool just in case the SLP attributes are not included in the 2012 schema expansion.
I am more curious as to the problems you're experiencing with 2012 though, if your having problems with 2012 I don't see how reverting to 2007 will resolve the problems?

Can I use SCCM 2007 to deploy SCCM 2012 Agent

I was reading the scenarios for deploying the SCCM 2012 agent here
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg682132.aspx
I have been planning to deploy the 2012 agent using an SCCM 2007 deployment package. I am not migrating any data/packages/collections/anything from SCCM 2007.
I am looking for a sane way to deploy 2000ish clients a day for 2 weeks and be done.
I figure they are all SCCM 2007 clients so lets deploy 2012 agent using SCCM 2007.
I read the following in the link above and it sounds like the way I want to go – use SCCM 2007 software distribution…
Upgrade installation by using application management
Upgrades clients to a newer version by using Configuration Manager application management. You can also use Configuration Manager 2007 software
distribution to upgrade clients to System Center 2012 Configuration Manager.
Then later in the same document there is this…
How to Upgrade Configuration Manager Clients by Using a Package and Program
You can use Configuration Manager to create and deploy a package and program that upgrades the client software for selected computers in your hierarchy. A package definition file
is supplied with Configuration Manager that populates the package properties with typically used values. You can customize the behavior of the client installation by specifying additional command line properties.
You cannot upgrade Configuration Manager 2007 clients to System Center 2012 Configuration Manager by using this method.
In this scenario, use automatic client upgrade, which automatically creates and deploys a package that contains the latest version of the client.
What???!?? There is no Automatic client upgrade feature in 2007 – so how does that even make sense? In one section, it says I can deploy the 2012 Agent using SCCM 2007 software distribution, and then later in the same document, it
says I can't. I am probably misunderstanding somthing.
Is it possible to make a package/program in SCCM 2007 that will make targeted clients upgrade to Agent 2012 and join the new SCCM 2012 Site?

I tested this (deploying 2012 agent using existing 2007 SCCM infrastructure) with a few test systems at my desk and it seems to work pretty smoothly. I made a package to deploy SCCM 2012 SP1 and added it to my SCCM 2007 Site. Then I deployed
the 2012 agent from 2007 and it worked great. If it works this well in production, I will be able to migrate all of my clients in less than a weeks time.
I have not published the 2012 site information in AD - and I don't plan to. We would have some overlapping site boundaries - and in 2012 it seems its unnecessary in a single site hierarchy. I AM planning to use boundaries to assign
DPs, but thankfully site and DP boundaries have been separated. It works great to just specify the site in everything and not worry about auto discovery. My clients don't move among sites since I only have one large site.
Sorry that I somehow posted this same question twice, and thanks for cleaning that up.
In my installation, I just called ccmsetup.exe with the following command line...
/mp:myMP.mydomain.com CCMLOGMAXHISTORY=5 CCMLOGMAXSIZE=1000000 SMSCACHEFLAGS=PERCENTDISKSPACE;NTFSONLY SMSCACHESIZE=10 SMSMP=myMP.mydomain.com SMSSITECODE=CCM
I am not sure that I need to specify the MP twice, but it is working to do so. I'm also not sure whether the log and cache flags will be honored since there are existing settings from SCCM2007 agent. I think that the 2012 install will not change
these settings upon installation, but it does not appear to hurt the process to include them just in case it does work.

New SCCM 2012 client machines still getting SCCM 2012 SP1 client not the new SCCM 2012 SP1 CU3 client

Hi,
I've successfully (as far as I can tell) deployed SCCM 2012 SP1 CU3 and all my existing clients are showing a client version of 5.00.7804.1400. But when I setup a new client system recently I noticed that the client version was showing 5.00.7804.1000,
and not 5.00.7804.1400.
For new client systems, do I need to redeploy the packages that were created for SCCM 2012 SP1 CU3 so that the new systems get the new SCCM 2012 SP1 CU3 client?
Thanks,
Nick

Hi,
Here's some good information to look over:
http://sccmfaq.wordpress.com/2013/09/24/sccm-2012-include-cu-in-osd/
I haven't followed these instructions myself, since I haven't really had any good reason to include CUs during the initial installation process. I use this method instead and I've never run into any problems:

Whats the best method to deploy sccm 2012 client

Hello what is the best method to deploy SCCM 2012 client, is there a script that should be used as sometimes the client push fails. In particular pushing the client to server 03 /08/12 types.
Thankyou
SCCM Deployment Technician

Ultimately, the best method is whatever works for you. Every environment is different and has unique constraints and requirements. You first need to learn out each of the methods and what they do to be able to properly evaluate which will work best for you.
Kind of like mining for gold, who cares how you got it out of the ground, once you get it out, you're rich :-) But if you rely on someone else telling you what the best way was for their mine, you may not be doing it the best way for your mine thus you need
to geological surveys, exploration, trial and error, etc. In other words, you need to do some real grunt work.
Often, using multiple methods is best though because each has its pros and cons (yes, even my startup script -- thanks for the cheerleading Michael and Tim). But as mentioned, it all comes down to you learning about your environment and the different
methods available to make the best choice. If there was only one "best" way to do it, there wouldn't be multiple available and none of us would really be needed.

SCCM 2012 R2 - Updates not installing

Hi all,
I have a SCCM 2012 R2 setup at a customer which has problems with distributing updates to the Windows 7 computers in the environment. The update group (with updates that are 100% sure required) is deployed to some test computers but the updates don't get
installed. It is also configured to be able to install the updates without looking at any maintenance windows. I see in the reporting that the updates are required, so in my opinion they should get installed.
I've checked the registry and the Windows Updates registry keys are pointing towards the right server (my SCCM primary site server). I've created a new software update group with fewer updates, same problem.
What I find in the UpdatesDeployment.log on one of the test machines is rather strange:

Any advice?

Hi,
What's the status in Software Center on clients?
Please check ScanAgent.log, WUAHandler.log, UpdatesHandler.log and Windowsupdate.log on the client to see if there is any helpful information.

SCCM 2012: Assigned updates to update group don't get there deployment

Hello,
Problem:
When I assign available updates to the update group the updates are not getting there deployment. Deployed: NO
(Previous months no problem)
Situation:
SCCM 2012 SP1
We made different Update groups. Example:
Windows 2008 R2
This group is deployed to different collections and has several deployments.
Steps taken:
Downloaded the new updates to Windows 2008 R2 Deployment Package (no errors)
Edit Membership and added updates to the Windows 2008 R2 update group (no errors)
When I check the update group I see the assigned updates in the group. The Downloaded Status is YES but the Deployed status is NO. When I check the update deploymensts it has no deployments.
Any idea where to find a solution for the problem? Which logs files to check?
Greetings

You could try and run this sql query to check the database directly and see if IsDeployed = 1 here. If that is the case there is just the console that is not updated. You'll need to change the Config Item ID (in red) to match the ID of your group, you'll
find this in the console. (Right click columns and add it)

SCCM 2012 SP1 Update to CU5 not showing version 1600 for clients updated !

Recently upgraded SCCM 2012 SP1 and its showing a version of 5.0.7804.1600 as it should be. Pushed out the CU 5 client manager update to few machines and they are also showing .1600 as the version, however in SCCM 2012 manager itself it is not updating the
status of those machines from say .1000 or .1400 to .1600. Why is this happening and any solution for it ? I have also updated the CM on the server hosting the SCCM and is current to .1600 version.

Because the client agent version is returned from clients via heartbeat discovery which only occurs by default every 7 days. Thus, you need to be patient. Note that I generally recommend reducing the heartbeat cycle to at least once a day partly for
this reason.

2.before patching we set maintenance schedules for device group.
3.patch deployment is working fine without any issues and we get the success 100 % compliants report in all the server .
Note:- but after one or two months later in Monitoring-->deployment tab-->its showing only few machines success results or deploying again old package''
this process is keep on rotating in all the deployment .
how to resolve this issues.

Hi,
You could try to initiate Software Updates Deployment Evaluation Cycle action from a problematic client, then check CIAgent.log, StateMessage.log to see if there are any helpful information.
Reference:

SCCM 2012 Win Updates - send only Metadata to Clients?

Hi Community!
Is it possible to configure SCCM 2012, so that Clients (Branch Offices) will receive only Metadata from our Server and will download the content directly from the Internet? And if, yes....can you tell us how?
We had this configuration before (without SCCM) with 2 WSUS Servers (one with Database and one with only Metadata) and both centrally Managed.
This was a perfect Solution for us. Now Management want to do this with only 1 SCCM Server (WSUS installed on SCCM Server).
Best Regards
Marcus

This can be done with ConfigMgr 2012 SP1 (not RTM). I'm not sure why you would want a LAN client to download content from Microsoft Update rather than their local Distribution Point, but you can do it per software update Deployment with the Download
Settings option:
"If software updates are not available on preferred distribution point or remote distribution point, download content from Microsoft Update"
When you make your deployment, don't distribute the content for the Deployment Package to any DP's, and then your clients should download it from the internet.
I hope that helps,
