Manual Client Push from Secondary Site

Setup: SCCM2012R2
One Primary Site > AD System Discovery Enabled
One Secondary Site > no discovery methods configured
IP boundaries are specified so that remote workstation(s) will use the Secondary as their MP. Auto-install client option disabled for both primary and secondary sites. Client install settings are set up identical for both site servers. (same
user account and same sitecode)
Issue: When attempting to manually push the client install, it will not use the "specified" site server.
Example: Workstation was discovered using AD Discovery by primary site (since AD Discovery is not supported by a secondary site, or so it would appear). The workstation IP is part of a boundary defined to belong to the secondary site.
Settings selected in the manual client push:
[X] Always install the client software
[X] Install the client software from a specified site:
Select -> "Secondary Site"
The workstation never receives the ccm-install package. Nothing appears in the ccm.log file on the Secondary Site server indicating install initialization.
If I run the manual client push again, but this time I leave the box un-checked for "install client software from a specified site," the install runs from the primary site. CCM.log file on the Primary site confirms installation, and the ccmsetup
folder appears on the workstation immediately.
It was my understanding, that a boundary would 'point' the workstation to the Secondary site for deployments, etc.. And even if that isn't true, I have specifically told it to install it from the Secondary Site.
Other notes - the workstation receiving the client resides in the same remote office as the secondary site server. Ideally, we want to limit WAN traffic. I would like to avoid pushing the client across the WAN for several hundred clients.
What am I missing here? Why won't clients install from the secondary site, even when specifically set to do so?

Very good information. Thank you for clarifying the reason they were listed with the secondary site code in the console. It confused me - as it didn't line up with what I had read.
At this time, I have about 40 'resources' with no site code. These don't fall in a boundary, but that will be fixed when I create/configure the proper boundaries. The rest have a site code - most primary and others secondary, depending on their
install status and boundary.
I gave the blog post a quick read, but I'll need to go back and read it again to soak in everything that was discussed. Thank you for sharing that. Believe it or not, I had stumbled upon your blog once before for something else (it looked familiar).
It is now bookmarked.
And as I was typing this looking over everything, I found something new....
I'm embarrassed to say that I found the Secondary site replication link was in an error state. Both sites were up - they just weren't talking. The error was a couple days ago - when I started down this path. Sadly, alert notification has
not yet been configured. I'm happy I found it - but I'm angry I wasted your efforts for a simple replication error.
A quick reboot of the secondary server seems to have done the trick. All of those queued up client pushes show up in the CCM.log now. They began flooding in after the reboot.
Thank you again for your patience and helpful responses.

Site Code for SCCM Clients installed from Secondary Site Server

Hello,
We have started the implementation of SCCM 2012 R2 at our network. We have setup a Primary site (JFO) server & pushed out the installation of SCCM clients to the local subnet. Things went fine.
We have installed a Secondary site (ATC) at a remote network. We have tested client installation in the installation wizard we specify to install the client from the Secondary server. When SCCM client installed from the Secondary server, the site
code that appears on the client in the control panel->Configuration Manager client settings is the site code of the primary site and not the secondary site.
Is this behavior is normal

Ultimately, secondary sites do *not* manage clients and so will never be assigned to the secondary site. However, do note that resources in the console that represent systems that do not have the client agent may show the site code of the secondary site
if they fall within a boundary group associated with that secondary site. This is done so that client push can be initiated from the correct site. More gory details at http://blog.configmgrftw.com/secondary-sites-and-boundary-groups/

Automatic Client Push not working - Site System Servers

Having an issue getting automatic site-wise client push to work when only
having "Configuration Manager site system servers" selected. This was turned on after discovery was enabled and fully executed.
SCCM 2012 R2 CU1, Single Primary Site Server, 2 Management Points (one on primary and second is standalone), with 5 DP's (currently), SQL is standalone.
The site systems are within the IP range boundaries and show as assigned (i.e. site code showing in console of object). The boundaries are in a boundary group with site assignment selected, and a DP added. When I view the object properties I
see its returning the correct IP that does fall withing the IP range boundary.
Nothing in the ccm.log indicating its ever trying to install the client and the ccr and ccrretry folders are empty. I can do a manual client push without issue to a site server object or a discovered desktop/laptop object.
Is there something I may be missing here? And does anyone know the interval in which SCCM should be creating ccr records for discovered objects that don't have a client?

Thanks or the quick replies everyone. To answer Idan's questions, no errors in log or component status and SQL is not clustered.
John, I hope this isn't the case. If it were wouldn't that effectively mean you would not be able to enabled discovery until you are ready to turn on auto client push? And if you did that you would have no way to control the client roll out.
Maybe I am missing something in that equation. I'll test that theory regardless but if that ends up being the case that is alarming! :-)
Jason, thanks for the tip on the potential bug. Was really more so hoping to validate automatic client push rather than actually needing it for my site system servers. So if it is the issue you reference above hopefully its just contained to
the site system servers. Would be nice to be able to select automatic client push to just a collection of devices prior to turning it on for site wide deployment.
I guess I could always just turn off discovery temporarily and delete all but some test clients, enable client push for workstations, then once validated, turn it back off and re-enable discovery. (wouldn't turn push back on until most clients are
deployed on the roll out schedule)

Replication from secondary site to primary site

When we want to replicate from secondary site to primary site then we can't use database replication. Why?

Not sure what you mean... The replication between primary sites and secondary sites is using both database replication and file replication. See for more information:

Can I install directly R2 CU1 client agent when using manual client push install

Hi :)
I've done SCCM 2012 R2 CU1 update and created collections and package to deploy to that collection and update clients, but can I install directly to client R2 CU1 version ?
Now I've first run manualy client push install which install RTM version on client. After some time client shows up RTM version in console.
After that I have to wait that collection with RTM version be updated and update package deployed to that collection and than wait for heartbeat discovery so that client agent version is updated in console.
So, is there any shortcut ?
Thank you
Best regards
Nenad

Configuration Manager 2012 R2 client push generator no site code

I am attempting to use the ClientPush Generator.Exe to manual push clients. When I start the program, I do not have a Site Code listed in the drop down box. I only have one site, but it is not listed. Any suggestions please?

Thank you for the response. I am running the app from the correct location logged into the SCCM server with a account with domain admin credentials. Your response got me to thank about right clicking the app and running as an administrator.
When the app is launched that way the Site Code is visible.
Thanks again.

Anyone else order Missing Manual v4 direct from oreilly site?

I preordered a copy of the version 4 Missing Manual from oreilly.com (which said estimated date October 2005) in hopes of receiving it as soon as possible. I have students who have purchased v4, so I am anxious to have the book in order to better assist them.
Currently I am unable to get an estimated ship date from the oreilly customer support; my response from them used vague words like waiting for replenishment of stock. So I am wondering if anyone else ordered direct from oreilly and what their experience is?
Barb O

Thought that I would come back to this thread and post that my Missing Manual for Elements 4 has just arrived.
As an aside, I will also mention that the tracking at the oreilly site was never updated to show progress of my order. This was a very frustrating ordering experience, but at least the book finally arrived.
Yesterday someone posted that she had received this book from Amazon, so it seems that multiple sources are starting to ship.

SCCM 2012 Clients at Secondary Site don't update and shows status as INACTIVE

I have 1 Primary site and 1 Secondary sites. I have setup Secondary site Boundaries using IP subnet. I see that the systems from secondary
site show in the console and they all have clients installed but however 60% of the system shows client activity as INACTIVE and not receiving any heartbeat DDR none of the system showing hardware inventory. I am not positive
where to look as far as logs are concerned. I think the clients aren't receiving policy like they should.
Just to give a brief idea, Secondary Site server crashed and we had to rebuild the server and re install secondary site after rebuilding all the
problem. Everything is working fine in Primary site.
Secondary site is communicating with primary site MP and DP
I have checked MPcontrol.log it shows status as OK
I am able to install client through console but yes when I check the configuration manager properties it shows CCM Notification Agent as DISSABLED
and in the Action Tab Machine and User policy are the only cycles showing.
Checked replmgr.log and rclctrl.log but it’s not showing any error
Only log file which shows error is bgdserver.log ( pasting log errors )

Hi,
Quote:"see that the systems from secondary site show in the console and they all have clients installed but however 60% of the system shows client activity as INACTIVE and not receiving any heartbeat DDR none of the system showing hardware inventory. "
So not all the clients show inactive? Have you checked the logs in an inactive client? Such as ClientIDManagerStartup.log.
Have you checked Secondary Site server's computer name from SQL logins? You could try to remove this account, wait a while, recreate the same computeraccount login with sysadmin access. (http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/d5383c23-6b71-47cc-9fad-fda82a44a3aa/secondary-site-showing-inactive-clients?forum=configmanagerdeployment)
You could use Configuration Analyzer for System Center 2012 R2 to troubleshoot issues.

Clients on secondary site cannot find the right site to connect

Hi, I have a primary site of SCCM 2012 R2, and a secondary site.
The Site code for the primary site is 'LPZ' and for the secondary site is 'SCZ', when I trying to install an SCCM client at the secondary site (in windows client or server) it is assigned only to the primary Site, and if you try to change the site
manually to correct the site assignment we receive this error message "Failed to update site assignment".
We have updated the AD and both the primary and secondary site are published into my AD, and the SCCM servers has the proper rights over the container.
Reviewing the installation logs I cant find any clue to help me to resolve this behaviour.
Raulito

Resident site is where the Client physically exists and this is determined by the boundary groups.
Assigned site is the Site to which client is assigned and this is LPZ in your case for all machines as you have just one Primary.
Following TechNet link explains this in detail:

Assign the exsiting clients to Secondary site

Hi Guys,
I need some directions to following issues.
We have SCCM 2012 SP1, managing clients in 2 different countries.
We have primary site in country A and secondary site in country B.
Under country A we have 2000 clients in various locations and in country B we have 5000 clients across various locations.
The link between country A and B is very limited (8MB) link. So recently the link getting smashed because of most of the clients from country B are assigned to Primary site in country A. Also we have SUP installed only on the primary server, which means all
the clients were getting the updates Catalog through WAN.
So we have installed secondary SUP in country B, however most of the clients from country B still getting the updates from primary SUP.
Now, what we are trying to achieve is;
First, assign all the clients in country B to secondary site.
Second, switch the country B clients from primary SUP to secondary SUP.
So to switch the clients to secondary site, under the boundary groups -> references ->Site Assignment we have chosen to assigned site to Secondary site.
Now,
1, how can we assign the clients to a secondary site? How long will it take to show up in the location log? It has been 24 hours and still the client machines location log showing the primary site MP details. Is there any way we can force
this process to speed up?
2, when we assign the existing clients from Primary site to secondary site, will it reassign SUP to secondary site as well? If No, how can we force the existing clients to communicate with secondary SUP?
I know, the SUP switch will only be possible when the primary SUP is not available and after x times of re-tries the client will fall back to the secondary SUP. In our scenario we cannot make our primary SUP offline, if we do this then all the clients from
country A will get the Catalog from secondary site, which will cause the network issues. So Apart from this, is there any other way (Resetting ANY client policies, uninstalling and re-instilling client, any other settings we can do to re-check the SUP) to
switch to secondary SUP?
Any help/ideas will be much appreciated.

Is the management point at the secondary site published to active directory? The clients will try to query AD to find their local Management Point.
Clients search for a Management Point by using the below options in the order specified:
Management point
Active Directory
Domain Services
DNS
WINS
http://systemcenter.learnmsexchange.com/system-center/system-center-2012/sccm-2012/8-management-points-in-sccm-2012
If you haven't published the MP to AD for the secondary site there is a chance the clients just don't see it. The MP is installed on the same server as the secondary site, correct? What hardware are you running this secondary site on (cpu and ram)?

Huge Sized download taking place at port 8530 between clients and WSUS\SUP of secondary site

Hi Guy's
Need a solution to the issue, the SCCM 2012 clients under a secondary site { Secondary site with SUP\WSUS } are downloading 200Mb + data at port 8530. This seems quite abnormal.
Need to know answer of below
1- Actual size of catalog what clients should download or path where on WSUS is stored
2- How to restrict a huge sized download between WSUS and CM 2012 client
This is not the case where clients are directly reporting to Primary size.
Regards
Sushain Kapoor
Regards Sushain KApoor

Hi Jason
Just a little clarity, will the client download information for a particular product or all the products selected in wsus.
Eg: Windows 7 systems will download the catalog information of Windows 7 only against selections made in WSUS. Or it will download the windows XP and windows vista and other product information also. This particular question i am asking as i see only 300
updates as found in windowsupdate.log and not the thousands synced in WSUS
Is the update metadata exported using the wsusutil.exe the actual catalog size what clients are downloading

Procedure performing a "Retry Secondary Site" Operation in SCCM 2012 R2 Secondary Server

Dear Brother,
My SCCM 2012 R2 Secondary Site Server, unfortunately crashed and required to be restored, doing this I end up performing a "Retry Secondary Site Operation.
One by one I am clearing out the errors but there are few remaining errors on the prerequisite checks:
1.[Failed]:The logon account for the SQL Server service cannot be a local user account, NT SERVICE\<sql service name> or LOCAL SERVICE. You must configure the SQL Server service to use a valid domain account, NETWORK SERVICE, or LOCAL SYSTEM.
Actions Done: SQL Related Services use Logon As Domain Account "Microsoft-Domain\BillAdmin" , but still the above message still appears in the logs.
Actions Done: None
2.[Failed]:The collation of the site database does not match the collation of the parent site's database. All sites in a hierarchy must use the same database collation.
3.[Failed]:The site server might be unable to publish to Active Directory. The computer account for the site server must have Full Control permissions to the System Management container in its Active Directory domain. You can ignore this warning if you have

Well my question is what would be the best solutions as it bugs me for days now.

Did you install SQL server with a local account?

SCCM Console on Secondary Site 2012 R2

Hi all,
I just want to ask whether it is supported or not when install SCCM Console on Secondary Site Server in 2012 R2? I've searched over internet but does not find a conclusion about that.
From technet SCCM Console requirement and interoperability, there is no information that restrict install console from Secondary Site Server, but this link say it is not supported:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/systemcenter/en-US/7c31b2d6-130c-46d6-b24d-108110cb0b61/install-sccm-admin-console-on-secondary-site-servers-failed-on-one-of-two-server?forum=configmgradminconsole
Has anyone try this, because today i installed console from one of my secondary site server and successfully connected with the primary site. Hope that does not break anything because with the ability of RBAC in 2012 R2, i can assign the admin at branch
site permission he need to manage the clients in this secondary site.
Thanks,

I've seen it working with multiple customer. Also, I can imagine that it wouldn't be a supported scenario, purely because it's not tested (both new installations as upgrades).
As, I'm not working for Microsoft and it's not documented, I can't give you any official statements.
