Office 2010 deployment through SCCM 2007 R2
This might not be the right forum to ask this however I am going to take a chance......
I have deployed Office 2010 with Access (OCT) to around 1000 devices.
I now need to remove Access on all these devices or make it unavailable so users cannot use Access.
Is there any modification that I can do to the exiting OCT that will help me achieve the above result?
You can remove access from the installation using the admin tool (OCT) then use a /p to apply the change to the existing configuration.
This is the link to the 13 setup, configuration will work the same way in 10 as far as I remember.

Windows 7 deployment using SCCM 2007 SP2
Hi,
We planning to do Windows 7 deployment using SCCM 2007 SP2 so we have some queries regarding same.
Is it possible to take entire HDD backup & restore using SCCM 2007 SP2? Also is it recommended to do so?
What will be the effective method to deploy OS at remote branches?
If we want to save the network bandwidth then what will way to send image to distribution point and client as well.
Is it mandatory to have PXE boot enable in bios & set as first boot preference on each client machine for PXE initiated windows 7 deployment? If so then is there any option to enable PXE boot & set as first preference on client machine
remotely?
Is it possible to deploy OS in other than C drive i.e D or E to have dual boot option?
Which we will be best method to have zero touch deployment without any end user intervention and why?
Please help to clarify.As Jason said, these are the configurations that requires some high level skills to configure it, the answers are the same as said by Arnav... below links would give you a good heads up for the OSD in SCCM if you still want to try it on your own...

Windows 8.1 Pro OS Deployment Using SCCM 2007 SP2 R3 - Possible? Supported?
I have been able to successfully capture and deploy a Windows 8.1 Pro image to a desktop, however the Apply Device Drivers action consistently fails with the following error in the smsts.log:
Driver-signing policy cannot be configured on this operating system
After that point no suitable drivers are able to be found and the task sequence is unable to proceed due to the lack of drivers. I'm using the same task sequence I used for Windows 8 OS deployment within SCCM 2007 SP2 R3. I'm just looking for confirmation
on whether or not driver deployment is now broken in Windows 8.1.The toolset has been updated significantly to support Win 8.1. Exact technical details of the changes aren't published anywhere beyond the fact that it simply isn't supported. It's insufficient simply because it is known not to work -- beyond that,
does it really matter?
Note that even Win8 deployment within ConfigMgr is unsupported so basically you're off into uncharted territory and assuming a lot of risk in doing so.

SCCM Office 2010 Deployment - "already compliant"?
Hi, I am deploying Office 2010 successfully to a group of machines on our network. It looks like there are machines that state "already compliant" even though the install definetely has not gone through. I checked some of the logs no record. Also
reinstalled the sccm agent.
In Software Centre - Installed Software - under Size 0 it states "Less than 1 MB". Going around in cycles here.
Any ideas?
SCCM - 2012 R2 / Windows 7 Ent / Office 2010 Pro Plus
ThanksHi Paul, i dont have access to that info. Any idea how i get that it? CHeers
Its Application deployment
To check the detection method. Select the application and then choose the Deployment Types tab at the bottom of the console.
Double click the Windows Installer msi deployment that appears. Then select the Detection Method tab. This will show you the detection method being used.
Cheers
Paul | sccmentor.wordpress.com
Hi Paul, sorry for the late reply. the deployment type is registry:
SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\{90140000-001B-0409-0000-0000000FF1CE}
I have checked the compliant list and its strange, some are compliant and some are not. I have removed the above, and set the detection to File System:
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office14
Excel.exe
Do i need to redeploy the software?
Cheers -
Office 2010 deployment - Bypass/Skip if Office 2013 present
We have predominantly Office 2007 installed thought out environment and I now have a working Office 2010 app deployment package. Now I am finding that we have a few systems that already have Office 2013 and I'd like to bypass any system that already has
2013 installed. Currently my 2010 package is installing side by side with 2013 and has resulted in Office being corrupted. I have not been able to find a way to detect Office 2013 and bypass/skip installation. Please help. Thank you in advance.Hi,
You could simply use a Collection query and exclude all devices from the Office 2013 collection that already has Office 2010 installed.. If you deploy it it devices and not users that is..

In my organization, we deploy office 2010 components separately - excel, outlook, word, and PowerPoint. We have been deploying it via Zenworks and few month ago we switched to SCCM.
So most office components are already deployed via ZenWorks and when migrating from Zenworks to SCCM, I am deploying outlook, excel, word and PP shortcuts to the desktop. (The Current Shortcuts to outlook and rest is a ZENWorks Shortcut - it goes away when
we stop using the Zen agent)
Instead of doing that I wanted to repair the office installation silently via Config.xml file and it runs successfully but it does not create a shortcut to the user's desktop (outlook, excel etc ...)
setup.exe /repair Outlook /config \\SCCM-SourceFolder\Apps\Microsoft\Office2010Componentsx32\Outlook\Outlook.WW\SilentRepairConfig.xml
Is it possible to have the repair setup create a shortcut? can I use my .msp file incorporated with the above command?Hi,
/repair command line will not create desktop shortcuts. And a .msp file can be used together with above command.
I would suggest you to create a .msp file with OCT tool, and configure it to create desktop shortcuts for any Office applications in
Additional content>Configure shortcuts section.
Please note that /adminfile [path] command-line option can be used only during initial installation of the product, so you might need to put that .msp file into
updates folder, and then apply it.

Hi, I did read all the Microsoft and non-microsoft documentation first. However, I didn't find an answer to these 3 questions:
Situation:
* Locally installed Office 2010.
* Visio and Projects 2010 sequenced with App-V 5.0 SP3 sequencer with integration scenario (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2830069)
* User-target of Visio and Project (I now according to documentation this should be published globally. Since not every user has a license this is no option. So far my tests do not show any problems with user-targeted visio/project)
* Visio has "allow COM objects to interact with the local system" and "OutOfProcessEnabled" enabled
1) When targeting both visio and project to the user with integration the licensing component only works for the first started application. Therefore I also install the licensing kit locally which make both the visio and project licensing work just fine.
Anyone sees a problem with having the license kit installed locally and stream the applications with integration on top? With my tests all seems to work well. The advantage of this is that I do not have to have separate packages for integration and non-integration
scenario's.
2) To make drag-and-drop from visio drawings in word work I enabled the COM interaction and I need also to set OutOfProcessEnabled="true". Does anyone now how to set OutOfProcessEnabled to true inside the .appv (it is possible with application
virtualization explorer) and not only manually afterwards in the xml's?
3) Should these COM settings be enabled for project as well? It seems that pasting in word from project has not the same interaction, it just pastes a table.1. We did similar, installed that MSI for the licensing component locally, and streamed Project and Visio 2010, and so far so good.
2. There is no way to set those COM options inside the .appv. You can set integrated vs isolated, but no IP or OoP COM, you have to use the deployment XML.
3. This gets tougher to answer, but it goes to how much isolation do you want. Some of the articles are great just go over my head slightly, but have to deal with how the filter driver processes certain kinds of COM, IP or OoP. With Isolated
(as opposed to integrated) the COM systems (local and package) are totally isolated except for global exceptions.
With integrated, you can further 'integrate' the COM subsystems by enabling those options. Correct me if I'm mistaken though.
So do you need to? If everything works for you I'd say no, but you might find something else doesn't work without those settings.
Also very important, you cannot join a CG without those subsystems being equal. So if Project and Visio ever need to be in a CG together and the COM settings aren't identical, you will get an error at the client.
I really like this article but not going to lie it goes over my head a bit (a bit or a lot depending on my coffee intake)

Office 2010 removal issues & SCCM
We are upgrading from Office 2010 to Office 365, and am using SCCM 2012 r2 to automate the install. So Office 365 will not remove the previous version of Office, so I have imported the following into SCCM to remove it.
setup.exe /uninstall ProPlus /config ".\ProPlus.WW\SilentUninstall.xml"
With the following being the SilentUninstall.xml File.
<Configuration Product="ProPlus">
<Display Level="none" CompletionNotice="no" SuppressModal="yes" AcceptEula="yes" />
<Setting Id="SETUP_REBOOT" Value="NEVER" />
</Configuration>
And the xml and command line work, however I am currently testing what would happen if the install were to kick off if the user still has any of the office programs open. Having any of the Office applications open will not stop the install, however nor
will it forcefully close any of the applications. It keeps the apps open, but the applications, become sluggish and unusable, which I fear my confuse some of my users. SCCM natively cannot prevent the install if these applications are open, nor
can it force them closed. Is there anything I can add to the command line or the XML File that would force close any of the open applications?Hi,
Just tested it, having any Office applications open will not block the uninstall action. User can still edit and save their documents with current Office before they close it.
To my knowledge, we don't have such an element in the
config.xml file which will force shut down any running applications.
Maybe you can add some scripts to SCCM, and trigger it prior to the uninstall action to shut down any runing Office applications. I'm personally not familiar with this, if you need help on this, please try to post in our
Script Center forum.

Lync 2013 deployment via SCCM 2007
Hi All,
We are trying to deploy Lync 2013 to Windows 7 workstations that currently have Office 2013 professional installed on.
Unfortunately we arent have much luck at the moment..
It seems to push Office 2013 tools out but not Lync itself..
The package was created using the Office customisation tool
the sccm command is set to setup.exe /adminfile updates \name.msp and also tried msiexec command line but no joy
Please can someone advise me how to achieve this Lync rollout?
Kind Regards, Enjoy the weekend!
James
J R VoseAre you using Office2013Professional (the Retail edition), or are you using Office2013ProfessionalPlus (the Volume Licensing edition)?
Or are you using Office365ProPlus (the Subscription edition of 2013, which comes in a Click-to-Run format)?
The steps may vary for you, depending upon the above.
Also, which Lync are you using for the install? (there are various ways to deploy Lync, depending upon what you have)
e.g. if you have previously deployed Office2013ProfessionalPlus, and at that time, you customised the installation such that Lync would not be enabled, and now, you wish to enable Lync, you would use the tip from Daniel, via something like this:
setup.exe /modify ProPlus /config AddLyncConfig.xml
[the AddLyncConfig.xml would be a file you create, containing the content like Daniel has suggested]
refer: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc178956.aspx
These steps are valid for Office2013ProfessionalPlus, but aren't valid for Office2013Professional nor for Office365ProPlus.
Ultimately, it depends whether your are "adding a new product" or are "modifying an existing product".
ConfigMgr is merely automating your instructions, it doesn't "know" if what you are telling it is "valid".
Have you tried to install/enable Lync using manual steps first as a test?

Hi Friends,
Often the service desk gets laptops from employees on which the client is broken or not getting policy updates
The Deskside team tries few steps
Reinstall the client using the cmd line
Run the "OSprovision" utility to add the machine back to domain
Run the "OSD Collection Utility " to Add the machine to a collection
However the sucess rate is less, i believe due to few reasons like, the OS image is old, missing pre requisites etc
so firstly i would like to know what all it takes to make the Client healthy, what all need to be checked to make sure it meets the pre requisites
Work around to fix the client, by remoting into the computer
Eventually i wish to build a Task Sequence which can be deployed to a collection, which will check the following
Does the computer meets the Pre requisites, if not it will install/reinstall the missing/corrupt pre requisites
installs/reinstalls the client ( wish to know how to execute the command line via task sequence, also if there is any other procedure to do the same )
runs the web based utility "osprovision" to add the machine if it has fallen out of domain
Adds the machine to appropriate collection utility
checks to make sure that the client is working fine after install/reinstall and is getting updates
Most importantly it should skip all the above steps if the client is already healthy
I am a new bee to the sccm, however i understand the concept, Please bear with me and help me step by step to complete this task,
also your idea's are most welcome for any updates/changes
Regards
Tanoj
OSLM ENGINEER - SCCM 2007 & 2012If there was a magic bullet to keeping clients healthy, then keeping clients healthy would not be an issue.
However, ConfigMgr 2012 does have a a built-in client health tool called ccmeval -- this is run using a scheduled task on client systems every day and does a very good job of keeping clients healthy.
Using a task sequence or anything directly deployed by ConfigMgr won't work because its a catch-22: how is the ConfigMgr agent supposed to run a deployment if it or a dependent component is not healthy.
Other things to keep clients healthy:
- Don't give users local admin privileges.
- Beat users that hard shutdown or reboot systems (this is IMO the number 1 cause of client health issues)
- Get rid of XP
- Use client startup script that supplements ccmeval

Office 2010 deployment - wont apply custom .MSP file
Hi all,
I am creating a new deployment environment for our company and having some issues with Office and adminfiles.
I basically cannot get setup to apply the custom MSP file from my network share, either using MDT application deployment, nor manually using the command prompt once the machine has been built.
I was also informed by several documents that any patches (which I assume to be MSP's and MSU's) that are present in the \Updates\ folder during setup will automatically be applied. This does NOT happen for me. It completely ignores my MSP when it's in there.
The error I get when trying to parse the admin file is pretty basic. It just says: "path or file specified with /adminfile did not contain any patches"
This is the command i'm using: setup.exe /adminfile "Updates\mymsp.MSP"
I've also tried using the full path: setup.exe /adminfile "\\domain\server\apps\office\updates\mymsp.msp"
None of that works.
Any ideas??
NB. It DOES work when I copy the MSP file to a local disk and execute from there. That adds an unnecessary manual step to my builds though, which I want to be completely automated. It also means I have to create a batch file to copy it locally first.Hi Greg,
do you use a config.xml?
Yes: Please add the following line to the config.xml:
<Logging Type="Verbose" Path="%TEMP%" Template="Office_2010_ProfessionalPlus_Install(*).txt" />
No: Please create an empty config.xml and copy&paste the following line:
<Configuration Product="ProPlusr">
<Logging Type="Verbose" Path="%TEMP%" Template="Office_2010_ProfessionalPlus_Install(*).txt" />
</Configuration>
The above lines are customized for Office 2010 ProfessionalPlus. Then run the setup again, include the config.xml-file:
setup.exe /adminfile path\file.msp /config path\config.xml
The setup should write an extensive log to the temp-folder (%temp%). The logfile will show you, if setup can locate the specified msp-file and is able to parse it. If it does not work out, post the logfile here.

Office 2010 deployment package incomplete
I have been charged with the deployment of Office 2010 Pro Plus 32 bit.
Using the OCT package installs well and authenticates with KMS plus the installation of SP2. The challange is the other 40 some odd patches don't install even though they are in the "updates" folder. I have tested installation
of SP2 from 2 directions, both in the updates folder and as an .exe command line install and it works well and silently both formats. My understanding is SP2 needs the reboot prior to installation of the other patches.
Looking for way to install those last patches to make a complete install in one swoop.
Working in a VM environment and can roll back and retest in short order.
LowellThe challange is the other 40 some odd patches don't install even though they are in the "updates" folder.
What kind of patches are they? Are those patches applicable to Office 2010 SP2? Please note that Office 2010 Service Pack 2 already includes lots of public updates that
were released previous.
For troubleshooting purpose, please do below test:
Remove SP2 files from the Update folder, only include the patches and see if they got installed this time.
After installing Service Pack 2, please try to install those patches manually and see if they can be installed successfully.
Please have a try and feel free to post back with any findings.
