Need to Deploy Distribution Points for 700 Offices on Windows 7 Systems with 128kbps of Bandwidth

Hello Everyone,
Need to deploy Distribution Points for 700 sites on windows 7 with 128kbps of link.During Office hours DP fails as entire 128 kbps of link is utilized.During non business hours it gets succeeded.
Setup for SCCM 2012-
1 Primary Server at DC
Secondary Server @ HO
100 DP's already created on link of 128 Kbps
Is there any option of creating Offline DP's in 2012......
How can I fastern the Process of DP Creation??????
Any help would be highly appreciated.......
Regards
Saurabh

Hi Jeff/Torsten,
Thanks for the revert.
Just to inform you that I need to Create fresh Distribution Point on Windows 7 systems as above technet link is used once you have setup distribution points if you need not have to utilized your 128kbps bandwidth in that scenario I can prestage the content
and copy that content on remote DP.
Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Problem with option: enable this distribution point for prestaged content

Hi, for past few days I have been focused on application deployment with SCCM 2012 R2 (I am learning SCCM 2012 R2 reading books, watching video trainings . . .). Having followed allong book Mastering System Center 2012 R2 Configuration Manager I also did
deployment of Microsoft Office 2013, Adobe Reader 11, Foxit Reader 4.2 and Notepad ++ to test collection containing one Windows 7 computer. In one of examples prestaged content file is created for Foxit Reader application. In order to do so, if I am
right, option Enable this distribution point for prestaged content
has to be checked on distribution point and I did that.
Problem is that I noticed deployment of any application to test collection failed every time - system waits for prestaged content file if this option is selected. Then I have to delete deployment of given application, application itself, deselect option
Enable this distribution point for prestaged content and create app, distribute it to DP and deploy to test collection - then everything works well.
To make things worse, having deselect option Enable this distribution point for prestaged content (I did it yesterday and I checked that several times) this morning I checked again and this option is selected again. What might be the cause
of this behaviour? I expected this option to be deselected - this is weird to say at least.

When you enable the option "Enable this distribution
point for prestaged content" on a DP, it causes newly created applications/packages to default to "Manually copy the content in this package to the distribution point"... This would then cause the deployments on the clients to remain
at 'waiting for content' - unless if you manually prestage the content, as this option requires it.
If you enable the option "Enable this distribution
point for prestaged content" on the DP, but want to automatically have CM distribute the content, then configure the app/package to do so,
before distributing the content: Distribution Settings tab > Prestaged distribution point settings > Automatically download content when packages are assign to distribution points.

Hi, I need a video editing software for my Power Mac G5 system. Hunted all over for one! Can anyone help me and point me in the right direction. Everything I come across is for intel based systems. Many thanks in advance.

I have Final Cut Studio V1 - the PPC/Intel V5/5.1 cross-grade version, which would suit your requirements perfectly. (I have it for sale at present down here).
If you keep looking, you're sure to find a similar second hand copy in your area, without the need to upgrade your graphics card.
I'd go for Final Cut Pro as above over any version of Express. FCP has the full version of LiveType - not the truncated version that was released later on.

Org Unit as Distribution Point for Document Distribution

Hello Experts,
I would like to maintain a distribution point for the document distribution. Therefore i still have maintained the distribution point (it is an org unit) in the available communication types (INT, RML,..) in SPRO...->Document Distribution->Define Communication Type.
But now every time when a distribution package will be started for distribution I get an error message: "Function <senden> not possible". The package should be send via distribution type INT to the distribution point.
Perhaps the communication type INT is not maintained for the org unit yet?Where can i do this?
Regards,
Christian

Hi Christian
The distribution point under Type of distribution point and Distribution point is used under the following conditions:
1. If distribution is initiated manually and the Distribution immediately indicator was set without entering an explicit distribution point.
2. If distribution is initiated manually and the
Distribution immediately indicator was not set.
3. If distribution is initiated by an event.
If the "Send to distribution point" indicator is set and no distribution point is entered explicitly, the current user becomes the distribution point if distribution is initiated manually. If distribution is initiated by an event, the user that triggered the event becomes the distribution point.
Follow this Procedure.Also Check all the setting in Define Distributio Types for Distribution type INT
where you mention distribution Point details.You will have to explore alittle bit.

In order to take advantage of the iPhone trade in, do I need to have met my upgrade eldigbility date, or do I just need to re-sign up for a new 2 year plan with the new iPhone 6?

In order to take advantage of the iPhone trade in, do I need to have met my upgrade eldigbility date, or do I just need to re-sign up for a new 2 year plan with the new iPhone 6?

thanks, a HUGE suggestion for you: Please add that to the restrictions of the trade-in details online, it mentions that nowhere and is VERY deceptive. Since at least 90% of 5c and 5s users are under a 2 year contract and both phones have been out just a year, there will be a majority of bitter customers who fell for the ad and will be taking advantage of the buy out options the other carriers are offering.

Preparing New Distribution Point for Deployment

Details: ConfigMgr 2012 R2, Windows Server 2012 and 2012 R2 (for some of the DP's already in production)
I have a new site opening up soon and we will be deploying a server to act as DP and PXE point. The new server is in my office where I have another production DP for the office.
My question is, can I onboard this new server as a DP and PXE point in my office, copy all the packages to it, box it up and take it to the new site, give it a new IP...all without causing a problem when it springs up in the new location. Would all the packages
need to be copied over again? Should I just create prestaged packages for everything? This scenario will come up very often when my company brings up new facilities, so I am just looking for a good way to run the process.

Yes, that will work fine. All you'll have to do is re-IP it when it gets to its destination (as you mentioned) and make sure to include it in its proper boundary group also. Make sure to update DNS also. I'm also assuming there's no domain or name
change involved as that would certainly throw a monkey wrench into it.

Issue setting up PXE Enabled Distribution point for SCCM 2012.

I'm trying to set up SCCM 2012 in my Lab Enviroment in order to plan for implmentation to production.
I have installed and Configure one Primary site which has a working DP role width PXE /WDS.
And i am able to successfully do and OS Deployment.
I want to setup an additional Distribution point with PXE, to simulate a branch Office.
Installation of the second Distribution point looks to be succesfull, but i'm not able to boot on PXE.
It allways gives me the error messeage "The Windows Boot Configuration Data file does not contain a vaild OS entry
The same error messeage is given before i distributed the boot images (both x86 and x64)
So my thougts are that he WDS dosn't find the bootable images somehow.
I can see that the images are added to the RemoteInstall\SMSImages directory, but i also see the following in smsdpprov.log

Server is a clean installed Windows 2008 R2, only added to domain, added the primary SCCM server account as local Admin, added WDS Role and configured RemoteFolder before adding DP role from the SCCM Console. (So SCCM has installed and Configured IIS)

Looks like i have found the answer at least i have got it to work.
Once i install .Net Framework 3.5.1 Feature on the server, i was able to boot succesfully into SCCM Task Sequence Wizard.
I also was successfull installing the the PXE DP role from the console succesfully without having to install WDS first.
So i guess that .Net Framework 3.5.1 is required for PXE DP role on Windows 2008 R2. (but i can't see that mentioned anywhere here http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/c1e93ef9-761f-4f60-8372-df9bf5009be0#BKMK_SiteSystemRolePrereqs)

Determine Distribution Point For PC Naming

I'm trying to automate the PC Naming process during Windows 7 Deployment with MDT 2010 and SCCM 2012.
I need to add a 3-character site code to the PC name, but I'm not sure how to get it. Ideally, I would like to identify the distribution point used for OSD, and then based on that distribution point, create a custom MDT variable that is the site code,
and later add that custom variable to a string that will be the name.
For example, if a computer was imaged using DP01.mycomapny.local as a distribution point, then MDT customsettings.ini would set the custom variable
SiteCode = HOU and later in the CustomSettings.ini I would have
OSDComputerName = %SiteCode%-%SerialNumber%
My problem is that I don't know how to determine the distribution point from inside customsettings.ini. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You can use TS Variable "OSDComputerName" for defining new computer name and "_SMSTSSiteCode" for determining Site Code. What are you want to use as SerialNumber?
Vladimir Zelenov | http://systemcenter4all.wordpress.com
Bob - thanks for your reply. I know that OSDComputerName is that variable I want to set. I also know that
SerialNumber is another builtin MDT variable that will pull the machine's serial from the BIOS. I can't use
_SMSTSSiteCode because I need the distribution point name, not the SCCM site code. When I mentioned that I need to add a 3-character site code to the value for OSDComputerName, I didn't mean the SCCM site. The site code I need to
use is an in-house site code for geographic areas. Our SCCM infrastructure has 1 parent site that services multiple geogrpahic areas within a small region, with each geographic area having its own unique company site code. Also, each company site
has a distribution point, not a secondary site server. So, I need to be able to identify the distrubtion point that is handling the OS deployment, not the SCCM site.

Remote Distribution Points for Software Update Point Site

Hi,
I have deployed Primary Site MP (SCCM 2012 R2) in the Main Office. In our environment, we have many remote offices with limited internet connection.
Is it best to setup Secondary Site in those remote offices or setup Distribution Points? What are the considerations?
Thanks.
~Andre

You only install one SUP. You can't install a SUP on DP's, and you don't need to install WSUS on DP's either, just IIS.
The clients will need to connect to the SUP (port 8530) to get the windows update catalogue. If they can't connect to your MP and SUP directly, then you will need to check your proxy configuration on the clients
Once the client has performed a scan, it will then match what it determines are "required updates" against what you have deployed in its client policy.
The client then connects to the local DP to download the updates and install them.
The client only downloads policy from an MP. If you have a DP on the same server as the MP then clients may try to download updates if you don't have your content boundaries configured correctly, and have also allowed them to use a fallback location.
To prevent clients going over the WAN to download the updates, check your update deployment under the "Download Settings" tab and choose "Do not install software updates" on both the options, and make sure you have your content location
boundaries configured correctly with the DP at each remote site assigned to the correct boundary.

Need Help finding mini bridge for PS CC Program window

I am still learning PS. I have PS & LR CC. I recently purchased Photobacks backgrounds and Templates, and Mini-Bridge looks extremely helpful in their tutorial video. What exatly is it and HOW can i get it on my PS Window? Thanks

As of CC, it no longer exists. Adobe pulled it. Sorry.
You can however, keep Bridge running (which it would have been for mini bridge to work) Then Double click on the thumbnail or drag the thumbnail to photoshop. It doesn't really take any longer to do it just does not stay in front any more.
Idea for Adobe -
Though In windows, Adobe could force bridge to stay in front if they decide to add that option. Not sure if Mac has a similar feature.

Differences between 10G intallations for vista and other windows systems

I need Informations about how the installationfiles for vista are differing from the files to install oracle on other windows systems.
And why can't i simply install Oracle Database 10g release 2 (10.2) for Microsoft Windows on a Windows Vista System.
Message was edited by:

Because Microsoft has changed the API with Vista - the system calls that programs such as Oracle (and Symantec, Word Perfect, and so on) use to performs their operations.
It is a strange thing indeed that things stop working when a program (such as Oracle) asks "fetch me data from disk" and the operating system says "fetch has been changed to get and I no longer respond to fetch"
Also because Microsoft has changed the security model, and requests made by Oracle are now denied due to insufficient, or differences in, security.
An analogy - you have a device with a plug to use in North America. Why can you not simply plug it in to the wall socket in other countries?
The information you need should probably come from Microsoft, not Oracle.

Looking for dual wireless rechargeable headphone system with dual docks

I'm looking for a pretty specific product, and was wondering if anyone knows of a product that'll fit the bill.
I want a wireless dual headphone system with a charging dock for each headset. Transmitter should accept line level signal from dual RCA plugs. I'd prefer a 900mhz transmitter, but IR is acceptable. Either the system should come with two headsets or it should be a system with a transmitter/headset with the option to add a charging dock and an additional heaset.
My old system was a Sony which is on its last legs, and I found a replacement from another manufacturer with dual headsets but it lacks charging docks - you have to plug the heaset into the transmitter and both heasets can't be charged at once. Also, the manufacturer says not to charge a headset for more than 24 hours or you can damage the battery.
Anyone know if Sony or someone else makes what I want?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi Verne,
Sony does not have manufacture dual Wireless Headphones. You can perform an Internet search and check for any third party dual headphones.
If my post answers your question, please mark it as an "Accepted Solution."

Am getting message saying something is trying to upload unsecure update for Firefox. Have scanned system with Avast but no reported problems

During a browsing session looking for spares for garden machinery I got a message saying something was trying to upload an unsecure update to Firefox. Have scanned system with Avast and a couple of other malware programs but have no reported threats. As far as I am aware my browser is fully up to date.

This issue can be caused by the presence of leftover files in the Firefox program folder (defaults\pref) like a file firefox.js that overrides the update URL with a wrong link.<br />
Do a clean reinstall and be sure to remove the Firefox program folder.<br />

* Uninstall your current Firefox version.
* Do not remove personal data when you uninstall the current version.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
* It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder] and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.
