How to manage Work group Computer through SCCM 2012 R2

Hello..Experts,
We have to manage the Workgroup Computers both Linux and windows Environment through SCCM 2012 R2.
what are limitation associated with managing Workgroup computer both with Linux and windows Computers through SCCM.
Please help us how to achieve this.

Windows devices that are Workgroup members have the same features for management as domain joined devices except that it is slightly more difficult to get the client installed on these 'unmanaged' devices.
The Linux computers have only basic support for  Inventory, Application Management, and Compliance.
I hope that helps,
Nash

  • How i discover all work-group computer in sccm 2012

    how i can make  discovery for  all work-group computer in sccm 2012 

    Jason - true but some environments don't always have this luxury. I've worked with clients recently whereby they weren't able to add all devices into AD but yet still wanted to managed them in ConfigMgr. It does add complexity and extra work and I wouldn't
    recommend, as I'm sure you wouldn't, running Network Discovery on a frequent basis.

  • How to deploy Cisco ISE agents through SCCM 2012 R2

    Hi,
    We are deploying Cisco ISE in our setup. we need to deploy following 3 .msi & 1 .xml files to 3000 PCs through System Center 2012 R2 Configuration Manager.
    The configuration.xml file must be deployed in specified (%ProgramData%\Cisco\Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client\NetworkAccessManager\newConfigFiles) location.
    anyconnect-nam-win-4.0.02052-k9.msi
    anyconnect-win-4.0.02052-pre-deploy-k9.msi
    nacagentsetup-win-4.9.0.42.msi
    configuration.xml
    The above 3 .msi files should be installed silently and configuration.xml file to be copied to said location.
    I want to create  one package to deploy 3.msi files at once and another package for .xml file.
    or
    Is there anyway to create in one package to install the .msi files first and copy the .xml file as well.
    Any idea please.

    Hi,
    Have you tried to create a script.
    You can easily test this by running your script manually with psexec -s
    to emulate running as SYSTEM account.

    no, i want count workgroup computers in my company
    You can get the number of machines managed by ConfigMgr that are in workgroups. However that might not be all clients in different workgroups since there is no guarantee that all machines are managed by ConfigMgr (have a client).

  • How Transaction Manager work with Resource Manager, like Connection pool?

    hi,
    I'm using BEA Webloigc8.1 Stateless Session Bean/DAO/Oracle stored proc.
    but I'm not quite clear how Transaction Manager work with Resource Manager, like Connection pool.
    my understanding is that, in a weblogic transaction, a stateless session bean interact with several DAOs, and for each method of DAO a connection is acquired from connection pool. I've heard that the connection will not return to pool until the transaction commits.
    My question is that, does it mean that for a weblogic transaction, multiple connections might be allocated to it? and if multiple connections are allocated, then how many oracle transactions would be started? or multiple connections share the same oracle transaction?
    I didn't feel it make sense to start multiple oracle transactions, cause deadlock might be incurred in a single weblogic transaction.
    any help appreciated!

    any help appreciated!Hi. If you configure your WLS DataSource to use keep a connection for
    the duration of a tx, it will do that, and in any case there can be
    no deadlock however many connections operate for a given XA transaction.
    Here is the best coding form for DAOs or any other user-written code
    for using WebLogic DataSources. This is important for two reasons:
    1 - Thread-safety is maintained as long as the connection is a
    method-level object.
    2 - It is crucial to notify WebLogic that you are done with a connection
    ASAP, by your calling close() on it. We will then put it back in the
    pool, or keep it under the covers for your next request if it's in a
    transaction etc. The pool is optimized for quick get-use-close scenarios.
    public void one_of_my_main_JDBC_Methods()
    Connection con=null; // Must be a method level object for thread-safety
    // It will be closed by the end of the method.
    try {
    con = myDataSource.getConnection(); // Get the connection in the try
    // block, directly from the WebLogic
    // datasource
    // do all the JDBC within this try block. You can pass the
    // connection to subordinate methods, but not to anywhere
    // that thinks it can use the connection later.
    rs.close(); // close any result set asap
    stmt.close(); // then close any statement asap
    // When you're done with JDBC
    con.close(); // close the connection asap
    con = null; // nullify it so the finally knows it's done
    catch (Exception e) {
    // do whatever catch stuff you want. You don't
    // need a catch block if you don't want one...
    finally {
    // It is important to close a JDBC connection ASAP when it's not needed.
    // without fail, and regardless of exit path. Do everything in your
    // finally block in it's own try-catch-ignore so everything is done.
    try { if (con != null) con.close();} catch (Exception ignore){}
    return ret;

    Any other thoughts on this?

    So to be clear you have Done both the Mofcomp and Added the correct account to the Windows Authorization Access Group?
    What is version of SQL are you using?
    Is SSRS remote or local to CM12?
    What service account are you using for SSRS?
    Bases on the error message you are getting this within the console, Does the native SSRS report work? BTW I never recommend accessing the report via the console.

    Hi,
    Please help me with the below issue, iam trying to deploy Service pack 1 on Windows 7 , 32 Bit OS
    SP1 does not get installed when the machine is set to Japanese Language, software push through sccm 2012 , it does gets installed of installed manually, by remoting into the machine
    also it gets installed through sccm when the machine is set to english language, 
    Thank you

    Hi Friends,
    we are deploying the SP1 via SCCM 2012 , and the success rate is around 50 %, its a Light touch installation where user will initiate the installation via Software Center ( Web based )
    i was able to gather few errors , and this are the errors which failed during SP1 Installation 0x800f0828,
    some errors which sccm reports display are 
    11171
    10008
    10021-
    17031 - 
    1602 - User Cancelled installation
    113 - No more internal file identifiers available
    10070 - File handle reference is no longer available
    10050 - A socket operation encountered a dead network
    11170  - The task sequence manager could not successfully complete execution of the task sequence
    i could not find the reason for some of the errors, also i am looking for a fix/woraround if any
    Also i have noticed that in few computers the task seq failed at a place where after the sp1 installation a reboot happens and then PGP BYPASS utility is uninstalled, it did not start the PGP bypass uninstall after reboot
    is there a way to cut short the Task seq and keep it simple ?
    right now its like this 
    1. checking for prerequisite : checks for OS Name and OS version
    2. installs PGP Bootgaurd Bypass
    3. System Restart
    4. Installing Windows 7 Service Pack 1
    5. Final Restart
    6. uninstall PGP Bootgaurd Bypass

  • How to manage work center in Production order

    Hi,
    I am producing a material having one operation (suppose cutting), which I have mentioned in the routing. I have also mentioned the work center in routing on which cutting operation will be performed. When I make the Production order of 1000 pcs there comes only one work center. But practically, they are producing these 1000 pcs on two different work centers ( 500 on one and 500 on second). How to manage this in SAP.
    Kindly help me.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Yogesh Singla

    Dear ,
    What is the individual capacacity of the Work Centre -CR02-Header -No of Individual Capacity ?
    I think you must be using similar kind of work centre of 2 no 1000 pc .Now , when you are creating routing for this , you should hit Required Spilliting in Routing Operation -Select Operation line item  and then Double click -Select Spilitting and enter splitting No 2.
    At the same time in CR02-Work Center -Capacity Tab -Hit the Header -In the Bottom of the Detail Capacity Header -Avaialabile Capacity -Include 2 as Number of Inidvidaul Capacity  and SAVE.
    Now based on thr required spilittinga and invidual caapcity , it will consider the Work Centre Load .
    Other wise , you can enter one more operation line in routing with similar Labor hrs , work center and control key in routung for production of 1000 pc  .
    Hope it clarifies
    Regards

  • Adding a Trusted Site through SCCM 2012

    I've got a VBS script I need to run on all our work stations to add a site to the trusted sites in IE.  When I go to the share the script is on and run it, it runs fun and works like I want.  However when I try to run it as a program through
    SCCM it fails (says installed) every time.  The site doesn't show up in the trusted sites list like I want.  I'm not really sure what I'm doing wrong.  I've tried a number of different combinations for the settings but still no joy. 

    i would create package for this requirement that adds the URL to HKCU only when user logged on with administrative rights (if user do not have admin permissions).
    Make sure you set the program can run only when u user logged on and run mode
    either user rights or administrative rights.
    If you want the URL to add all users who ever logged on,you can follow this post https://social.technet.microsoft.com/forums/ie/en-US/84d9ca9d-4a34-4294-ac90-8bc5c47edc12/adding-trusted-sites-for-all-users

  • Deploy Windows 8 To Go through SCCM 2012 SP1

    First a little backgroud:
    I have SCCM 2012 SP1 with MDT 2012 Update 1 integrated. I am using an MDT UDI task sequence to deploy windows 8 and it works perfectly. My Windows 8 image is fairly thin (only containing OS updates and C++ runtimes), and I am using the MDT database
    and an MDT task sequence in SCCM 2012  to dynamically set a list of SCCM Applications to install as well as settings based on location. 
    Now I want to get Windows To Go provisioning working in SCCM 2012 SP1. I had a powershell script that preparied the drive and applied a thick image (including office and other apps) to it then updated unattend.xml with a computer name and the domain join
    info.  That worked for me however I'd like to levarage the dynamic task sequence that I described above to build these To Go sticks the same as my other Windows 8 machines without having to keep updating the thick image evertime something changes. 
    There isn't much info out there that Iv'e found on setting up SCCM 2012 SP1 to provision windows to go here are the two that I have found 
    http://ixrv.blogspot.com/2012/10/provisioning-windows-8-to-go-with.html
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj651035.aspx
    I followed the instructions in the first link and was able to run the Windows to Go Creator program and apply the prestaged wim to the USB stick. I rebooted from the USB stick Windows PE started and started to run my task sequence then it errored out on
    the apply image step. At this point it occured to me that the MDT SCCM task sequence was probably not setup for prestaged media and or Windows To Go. 
    So my question is am I on the right track? Do I just need to examine each step in my task sequence and make sure that it will work properly with my Prestaged/Windows To Go stick? If so has anyone actually gotten this to work that could give me some advice?
    Or is it asking too much to have a dynamic Windows To Go task sequence and I should just be building a thick image and using a second task sequence specifically for Windows to go? 
    are there any other resources for Windows To Go with SCCM that I'm missing? 
    Thanks, 
    Tony

    First of all sorry I missed your last three posts I have to check my email notifications. I'll try to answer all of them even though I think the last part is the only one where you are still stuck. 
    When I created my prestaged media I didn't put anything into it except for the the OS image and my PE image. On the Select Application and Select Package screen in the prestaged media wizard remove any application or packages that are added automatically.
    The task sequence is supposed to be smart enough to know if the version of the package that is on the prestaged media is out of date and go to a DP to get it but that didnt work for me. The only way I was able to get it to work was to remove all the packages
    from the prestaged media even the Customsettings package, the MDT toolkit package, USMT, etc.. 
    http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/configmgrosd/thread/d729d0ff-829f-4af8-91af-2131b3355fd0/
    This thread which is about prestaged media in SCCM 2007 helped me to understand how prestaged media is supposed to work. Basically what I learned is that once the computer is rebooted from the ToGo stick into PE the task sequence will run the same as any
    other task sequence installing any applications and setting up your ToGo stick just like any other computer that runs the task sequence they dont need to be in your prestaged media for this to happen. 
    You shouldn't need to worry about partitioning WTGCreator.exe will partition the ToGo stick for you I'm just using the standard MDT Integrated partitioning in my task sequence. The one thing that I did was set the Windows To Go Creator package to "run from
    distribution point" which speed things up because then it didnt download the prestaged wim then apply it to the USB drive. 
    Is it booting into PE then rebooting? Did you check the "Allow unattend operating system deployment" check box when you made your prestaged media? If so it wants you to have set the task sequence to run in a task sequence variable SMSTSPreferredAdvertID
    to the task sequence ID you want to run. I'd just remake the media and leave that box unchecked. 
    Good luck and let me know how it works for you. I'll check back sooner this time I promise. 

  • Windows XP extended support patches through SCCM 2012

    My question is how do customers that  have signed up for extended support agreement with Microsoft for Windows XP get any NEW Windows XP security updates through SCCM/WSUS?
    1. How are these NEW security updates released to the customer?
    2. How can they deploy these through SCCM 2007/2012?
    3., If updates are released through another mechanism , I presume the customer woyuld need to manually deploy these through SCCM?
    Appreciate if anyone has had experience recently around this?

    There is another channel that these updates are released that has nothing to do with WSUS to my knowledge. I have no idea exactly how it works or if these updates can be integrated into ConfigMgr. You should talk to your TAM.
