Dynamic computers collection based on User State Migration associations

At our company, we have a group of computers with the follwoing situation:
User works on machine with WindowsXP, there is already prepared new machine, with Windows 7 installed, and delivered to user. I have prepared 2 task sequences - "State Capture" and "State Restore", both deployed to separate device collections.
Now, what I do is create old/new computer association in the User State Migration tab, add old computer to Capture collection, let the TS complete, add new computer to Restore collection, and let the TS complete. After all these steps user can begin to work
on the new machine with his/her profile and data migrated.
But I would like to speed things a little bit, and allow my
colleagues to perform such "migration" by simply adding computers association. To achieve that, I need to create a query, that would assign computers to collections, based on the existing associations in the User State Migration tab. The problem is,
I fail to find appropriate rule in query wizard. Is it possible at all?
I need computer to be added to Capture collection upon detection of it being source computer in the USM tab, and removed from collection upon finished TS, with the target computer added to Restore collection at the same moment and removed from the collection
upon finished restore TS.
I would greatly appreciate any help or pointing into right direction.

Hi,
There is a blog about removing computer from collection after SCCM task sequence. But it is for SCCM 2007. You could have a look on this blog to see if the script can be edited to meet your requirements.

User State Migration using SMP with config manager 2012 R2

Hi ,
I have SMP at primary site and need to migrate XP and 7 machines using this SMP (using USMT),
what are the steps do i need to define in TS so that usmt can use State migration point for user setting\data backup?
Another challenge i see it with XP since we are deciding to take 2 phase approach, that means we will backup data using 1 TS (3 step TS) and then restore data as part of another TS that will install windows 8.1 also with user state restore.
Any pointers if we need to define anything special in TS (migration store etc.) or since its SMP, TS should able to take care of finding it automatically and backup\restore user state?
We have MDT based TS, just wondering if we need to define anything inside CS.ini file related to SMP?
Any pointers will be appreciated. Thanks

User state migration "Windows XP to Windows 7"

Hello ,
I want to migrate the XP computers to Windows 7 without losing data.
I tried using the migration user state of SCCM 2012 SP 1 but the sequence task failed in the step of "applying operating system" with the error "0x80070002" !!!!!!!
Thank you.

MDT 2012 - Failure 9701: Unable to find any version of USMT, unable to perform user state migration. Failed to run the action Restore User State. DNS Record does not exist. (Error: 000025E5; Source: Windows)

I am having trouble trying to capture a new Windows 8 image with WDT 2012.
My Setup -
Server 2012
WDS
MDT 2012
Windows 8 ADK
Hyper-V
I have created a new task and I can get the image to successfully deploy the image to a VM but it seems to fail at the Restore User State task.
Once the install Applications task has finished I added a Suspend task so I could customize the image a little. Upon resuming the task sequence is where the above failure message appears. I can see it gets to the next step (which is 'Restore User State')
but that seems to be where is crashes.
Does anyone have any advice on what I might be doing wrong or what I can do to resolve the above issue?

WAIK being installed was probably your issue so I wouldn't bother disabling the restore task. It is used to migrate user data, docs, and settings on refreshes, not new builds. It doesn't affect CopyProfile, just note that data will be migrated on refreshes so
some aspects may change, ie wallpaper, shortcuts, etc but what gets migrated with USMT can also be configured.

User State Migration Relocation Pattern

I am using USMT 4.0 to capture data from a Windows XP SP3 system with an additional D: (DATA) drive. I can accomplish this using the generatedrivepatterns option or specifying a file pattern of "D:\* [*]". In my local, uncompressed store I can
see that I have this structure;
C:\StateStore\USMT\File\C$\
\Demo Data
\Documents and Settings\
\Documents and Settings\UserA
C:\StateS\tore\USMT\File\D$
\Demo Data
\More Demo Data
I am then using USMT 6.3 (8.1 ADK) to restore this data to a single partition layout Windows 8 System, however I am absolutely unable, despite several hours of experimenting with mig files, to get the content captured from D:\ into a subfolder on C:\.
I would like to achieve this;
C:\RestoredData\C$\
C:\RestoredData\D$\
I can successfully relocate the data from C: where I need it to be, however the data from D: just ends up on the root of the C: drive. I am even simplifying the task by using USMT with just a single custom MigData.xml which only concerns
itself with the capture and relocation of data from D:, as below;
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<migration urlid="http://www.microsoft.com/migration/1.0/migxmlext/migdata">
<component type="Documents" context="System">
<displayName>More Data</displayName>
<role role="Data">
<rules context="System">
<include>
<objectSet>
<pattern type="File">D:\* [*]</pattern>
</objectSet>
</include>
<locationModify script="MigXmlHelper.RelativeMove('D:\','C:\RestoredData')">
<objectSet>
<pattern type="File">D:\* [*]</pattern>
</objectSet>
</locationModify>
</rules>
</role>
</component>
</migration>
This should be so simple, however this just does not seem to work and in the loadstate.log I see an entry;
Relocation pattern skipped because enumeration root is not present: D:\* [*]
Well, yes, of course D: doesn't exist and THAT is why I want USMT to relocate the data!
Am I expecting too much or attempting the impossible??
My Personal Blog: http://madluka.wordpress.com

Hi,
How about creating D: with a little space, then relocate the data to C:? I guess it need D: exists before relocate the data.

SCCM 2012 R2 User State Migration Win XP to Win 8.1 does not migrate Domain User Files

Hi @ all
i'm trying migrate Win XP Sp3 to Win 8.1 using SCCM 2012 R2. So i followed the how to from the SCCM Team.

Reading dynamic table column based on user selection

Hi there,
I am having a problem of reading and manipulating the data stored in a standard SAP table. The following example simulates the table and what i am trying to do:
Table: Storing sales data for sales person
SALES_PERSON    REGION   YEAR   MTH_S1 MTH_S2 MTH_S3 MTH_S4...
Richard S               NORTH    2007     100          200         300        400
John K                    SOUTH    2007      50           100         100        20
Brad P                    NORTH    2007     300          100         100        50
User have have the following selection option:
1. Month.
The program will calculate the sales based on the individual month selected
Example, if user select Month = 3, then program take only MTH_S3 column value
So total sales = 300100100=500
2. Month range
The program will calculate the sales based on the month range selected
Example, if user select Month 2 to 4, then program take MTH 2 to MTH_S4 columns value
So total sales = 400 (for MTH_S2) + 500 (for MTH_S3) + 470 (for MTH_S4) = 1370
How should i write the logic or code for this requirement?
Hope someone can help.
Thanks,
Pang HK

Try something like this
TABLES:
t247.
SELECT-OPTIONS:
s_month FOR t247-mnr NO-EXTENSION.
DATA:
BEGIN OF fs_data,
    person(30),
    area(10),
    year(4),
    mon1 TYPE kbetr,
    mon2 TYPE kbetr,
    mon3 TYPE kbetr,
    mon4 TYPE kbetr,
    mon5 TYPE kbetr,
END OF fs_data,
t_data LIKE STANDARD TABLE OF fs_data,
w_no_months TYPE i,
w_kbetr TYPE kbetr,
w_total TYPE kbetr.
LOOP AT t_data INTO fs_data.
    CLEAR w_kbetr.
    DO 5 TIMES VARYING w_kbetr FROM fs_data-mon1
                                                      NEXT fs_data-mon2.
    IF sy-index IN s_month.
      w_total = w_total + w_kbetr.
    ENDIF.
    ENDDO.
ENDLOOP.
change the value 5, according to the no.of months in ur internal table

Modify Dynamic Prompt Values based on User Name

Hi,
I did some searching for this issue on the forum and could not quite find anyone with the same problem. If I missed something, please except my apologies in advance.
I have created a report within Crystal Reports 2008 with dynamic prompts. The report pulls possible values for the report directly from my database (MS SQL 2005). This works well.
I have deployed the report, with eclipse, under tomcat using the free JRC components provided by SAP.
This is a financial report which allows users to view the budget of a department. Each user will have one or many departments that they should have access to. Not everyone sees the same departmental information. I have a table that contains the user name of each individual and the department code they should have access to.
One of the dynamic parameters I have in the report now lists all department codes. Would it be possible to pass to the report a user name that would limit the listing within the department code parameter to only those departments the user name has access to (as specified in the security table I have setup for this)?
I need to do this within the JRC and not the Business Objects EDGE server. With this in mind, I do not believe I can use any of the RAS components of the JRC.
Thanks, in advance, for any advice or help you may be able to provide,
Dave

Moved to Java SDK forum where the JRC is answered.

Collecting USMT data to State Migration point without imaging.

Hey can anyone help out with this. We are trying to capture user data from one workstation to another using the SCCM and USMT. It works great...for in place migration, but here is the scenerio:
user Bob, gets a new workstation, he wants to back all of the data up from the old workstation to the new workstation. From what I can see as of right now, the only way to do that is to reimage it with USMT, and then associate the computer within
SMP in the console to the new workstation.
Is there a way I can just boot the OS into PE capture the data to the SMP and go from there?
Hope that made sense.
Thanks

You've just described a side-by-side migration and your assumption is almost correct.
This is the process:
1. Create computer association between old & new
2. Create TS with USMT capture to SMP (custom task sequence with USMT only)- deploy to old (you don't have to re-image the old computer - just capture the data)
3. Create TS with OSD and UMST restore - deploy to new

User State Migration Tool - unknown folders from %userprofile%

Hey,
I try to configure USMT currently.
It works really fine. Unfortunately only for specific folders & files.
I got it working to define USMT to backup files just for "My Documents", "My Pictures" etc. in MigUser but I have problem that users created custom folders like e.g. %USERPROFILE"\MyCustomFolder. Unfortunately I do not
know name of these folders.
How can I define USMT to migrate files/folders in %USERPROFILE% I do not know name from, but not migrate folder e.g. "My Music" and %AppData% etc.?
Thank you for help.
Kind Regards
mk-maddin

Hey Torsten,
Thank you for help - I think we are talking about different topics :)
I know I can specifiy another XML in tasksequence.
My problem is the XML-file itself.
In MigUser are entries like:

<component type="Documents" context="User">
<displayName _locID="miguser.mydocs">My Documents</displayName>
<paths>
<path type="File">%CSIDL_PERSONAL%</path>
</paths>
<role role="Data">
<detects>
<detect>
<condition>MigXmlHelper.DoesObjectExist("File","%CSIDL_PERSONAL%")</condition>
</detect>
</detects>
<rules>
<exclude>
<objectSet>
<pattern type="File">%CSIDL_MYMUSIC%\* [*]</pattern>
<pattern type="File">%CSIDL_MYPICTURES%\* [*]</pattern>
<pattern type="File">%CSIDL_MYVIDEO%\* [*]</pattern>
</objectSet>
</exclude>
<include filter='MigXmlHelper.IgnoreIrrelevantLinks()'>
<objectSet>
<pattern type="File">%CSIDL_PERSONAL%\* [*]</pattern>
</objectSet>
</include>
<merge script="MigXmlHelper.DestinationPriority()">
<objectSet>
<pattern type="File">%CSIDL_PERSONAL% [desktop.ini]</pattern>
</objectSet>
</merge>
</rules>
</role>
</component>
All these entries are using %CSIDL_XXX% like defined in following Microsoft article:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff383238(v=WS.10).aspx#BKMK_MigUser
But there is no value for %USERPROFILE% to be able to specifiy %USERPROFILE%\*.
Thank you for help.

User State Migration Data Capture Failure MDT 2012 Update 1

Hello All
Trying to capture data on a Win7 x64 machine so that I can keep the data and restore once the computer is done re-imaging. This is an offline MDT deployment on the same computer. See the error below:

Lots of good information out there. Even stuff that says it's for MDT 2010 also applies to MDT 2012 Update 1 for the most part. Here's a few to get you started:

http://channel9.msdn.com/Events/MMS/2013/DC-B301 (great video with Johan presenting, focused on USMT 5.0)
You should create a default Standard Client Task Sequence and look at the State Capture and State Restore groups to see what MDT sets up for you by default that you may have removed from your current Task Sequence. But the direct answer to your question,
is that ScanState (part of USMT) is the part that creates a backup. LoadState is the piece that restores it to a machine.

How to manually recover user state data saved to a State Migration Point

Hi,
In SCCM 2012, how would you recover the User State saved to the State Migration Point manually?
In SCCM 2007 you could do what was outlined here:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/configmgrosd/thread/159affd3-1726-4829-a0f4-0c875481fc11
However this does not work for SCCM 2012 because the User State Recovery key so long that it cannot be used with a loadstate command (Loadstate commands cannot be longer than 256 characters)
Previously you could also have just opened the User.mig file using Windows Easy Transfer and entered the User State Recovery key stored in SCCM - however in SCCM 2012 this does not work either!
I really need to recover the contents for a user who got a new computer (old one stolen) and requires data from a previous user state capture on the State Migration Point.

Hi,
It seems something changed in SCCM 2012.
I've got the same problem and after couple hours of research I found MS article that only helped me -
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh824962.aspx
In SCCM server I run this command:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\8.0\Assessment and Deployment Kit\User State Migration Tool\amd64>usmtutils.exe /extract C:\tmp\_MIG\USMT.MIG C:\tmp\_MIG\Extract /decrypt /keyfile:C:\tmp\_MIG\Key.txt
and received necessary data.

Request User State Store Fails with error code 0x00004005

I am trying to get a machine refresh working in SCCM and am running into a road block with the user state migration. The Task sequence hits Request user state store and then fails. In the logs on the machine it shows it downloads the cert from the SMP but it fails to verify the cert. The thing is that this was working and then stopped for no apparent reason. I have added a second SMP and it has the same issue so its got to be something environmental causing this. I have found no references to the errors I am recieving that relate to the issue so I am stumped. We have a SCCM 2007 site in mixed mode. The error log is:

Hi
I am getting the same issue.
More info:
The same task works ok for one client - an xp machine that was upgraded to vista sp1 using sccm but without usmt.
If I send this machine a task which includes usmt and os deploy it works.
On 2 other machines ( so far) , the request store fails with the same error - 0x80090006. (one of them existing vista and the other xp)
I have tried removing and adding the client from the domain but it did not help.
Any idea?

SCCM 2012 Recover "User State Recovery Key" after Deletion Policy has removed the key

I have a computer that was upgraded from Windows XP to 7 using SCCM 2012. The user's info was captured and restored, but found out a month later that some Outlook Archives are corrupt.
I had this happen before on a different user, but found out right away and was able to recover the User State Recovery Key and restore the files.
I have looked under Assets and Compliance, User State Migration, but the computer is not listed anymore.
I have done a file restore of the USMT.MIG file from three weeks ago, but can not extract the users files without the User State Recovery Key.
I have looked through the SQL tables and have only found the StateEncryptDecryptKey in the StateMigration table which will not work.
Environment:
Windows 2008 R2 SP1 SCCM 2012 Server
Windows 2008 R2 SP1 SQL 2012 Server
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Wendell

It worked! Thank you Jason!
I restored the server's Storage Folder from "State Migration Point" (USMT Folder) from the same date as the SQL database was restored from. Shut the SCCM server down while doing the SQL restore. Turned on the Server and was able
to pull out the User State Recovery Key.
Then reverted back by shutting down the SCCM server and restoring SQL database back to previous backup taken before starting.
Only issue I'm getting now is that SMS_EN_ADSERVICE_MONITOR has a warning
8400 Enrollment Point AD Service Control failed to read and configure the registry keys necessary for this component.
With checking everything out to make sure no issues have arised. I looked through the log adctrl.log and found some more errors about Failed to create instance of ADService Managed Component. error = -2147024809
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
