OSD Process not honoring Boundary Group Locations

Hi All,
I'm in the process of introducing a PXE enabled DP into a new remote site (AUS). I've got the DP installed and PXE booting and I've created a new boundary group using the AD site for the remote location and added the on site DP to this.
Everything was working fine and the PXE boot worked correctly the boot.wim gets tftp'd. The client picks its policy from a MP back in the UK and that's working fine as well.
The weird bit that is driving me mad is when it downloads content it is getting both the UK and AUS DPs in the content location request and picking the UK ones!
I've checked my boundary groups and I have have one for the UK with the UK DPs in and the UK AD site. With another one that has the AUS AD site and the AUS DP in.
None of the DPs are set for Allow Fallback and this is driving me crazy!
Any ideas greatly appreciated.

Hi Peter,
I've check the IP address and it is getting what I would expect it to have (10.6.3.200) the AD site assigned to the boundary group for the remote DP is a 10.6.3.0/22 and I've also tried it with an IP range of 10.6.3.1-10.6.3.254
I've enabled verbose logging for the MP and looked at mp_location.log it shows the following:
Looking up AD site name for content location request.    MP_LocationManager    10/02/2015 20:00:56    534332 (0x8273C)
Successfully mapped IP address 10.6.3.200 to AD site AUS    MP_LocationManager    10/02/2015 20:00:56    534332 (0x8273C)
however the reply with "MP_GetContentDPInfoProtected" contains servers that are not in that boundary group.
MP_GetContentDPInfoProtected (UK500152,2,UK5,<ServerNameList><ServerName>SCCM2.domain.local</ServerName><ServerName>SCCM4.domain.local</ServerName><ServerName>SCCM-AUS.domain.local</ServerName></ServerNameList>,SMSPackage,00000000,,,<ClientLocationInfo
AllowMulticast="1"><ADSite Name="AUS"/><IPAddresses><IPAddress Address="10.6.3.200" SubnetAddress="10.6.3.0"/></IPAddresses></ClientLocationInfo>)
I have noticed that someone has added a 10.6.0.0/16 to a different AD site a long time ago but that was never an issue with 2007 as the largest mask (the /22) would be used. Any idea if this is still the case in 2012?

  • Need to understand Site Assignment and Content Location Boundary Groups

    Okay I am very confused about something that I am seeing that is throwing my understanding of how Boundary Groups work completely off. 
    Here is my dilemma:
    I created two boundary groups, a site assignment and a content location boundary group. The site assignment boundary group contains all of my sites. The content location boundary group I have just has my datacenter systems where the DP installed on my site
    server is being referenced in that boundary group. 
    Now, I had two pilot deployments. The very first pilot deployment I had I created a content location boundary group for that site and referenced the local DP and when I deployed software updates to the clients there, I kept getting timeout errors. The second
    pilot deployment i had, I totally forgot to create a content location boundary group, but the software updates installed perfectly fine on those clients. 
    What the heck is going on here?
    I thought if a content locatoin boundary group was NOT created for a remote site, then those clients would not be able to receive any content at all, period. 
    Can someone please, please explain to me what is going on here?
    Thanks everyone

    A couple of additional comments here that build on the previous by Peter and Nick.
    Site assignment has nothing to do clients finding content so while it's good that you have a site assignment boundary group and even that you mentioned it, it has nothing to do with what's going on here. Also as a semantic side note, when referring
    to remote locations, you shouldn't use the word "site" when discussing ConfigMgr because "site" means something very specific and could cause confusion. I typically try to use the word "location".
    Clients that do not fall into a boundary within a content location boundary group automatically fall into a "default" boundary marked as slow in a default "boundary group". Neither of these is defined anywhere in the console or the product
    so default isn't exactly the right word here, but it does convey the meaning. Thus, not being in a defined boundary does not mean that clients cannot get content, just that they will only get content allowed for slow boundaries or where fallback is enabled.

  • Active Directory Sites + Boundary Groups + Database not showing correctly?

    I am having a hard time trying to track down my issue but after digging for a bit, I think I have figured it out but I am unsure how to fix it.
    Quick backstory, we had a domain controller go bad in this ADsite, the domain controller was also a DP at the time aswell and to fix our issues we dcpromo /forceremove it and cleaned up AD after. Created a new domain controller in
    the ADsite, replicated everything across, everything is going as it should. SCCM on the other hand thinks I did something very wrong.
    I'm not sure even how to explain but here goes. SCCM Console shows that the newly created distribution point that is running in the site where I ripped out the old domain controller and it is running well, the boundary is there, the DP is
    tied to the boundary is it looks great. (
    https://onedrive.live.com/redir?resid=B5BA8EC0E0DB675!4966&authkey=!ACD-aPFR5oE6TtI&v=3&ithint=photo%2cpng )
    On the other hand, SCCM Database is not connecting the DP to the boundary. I am clueless on why this is happening. Because of this, it seems like no end users are getting any software. LocationServices on client machines show the computers are in the
    proper site but SCCM does not seem to think the new DP is part of the site.  (
    https://onedrive.live.com/redir?resid=B5BA8EC0E0DB675!4967&authkey=!AEhKiU6eRr6kph0&v=3&ithint=photo%2cpng )
    The other 9 DPs have no issues, they are part of their respected sites, clients are getting all the software from the proper DPs and no issues.
    I would gladly share some log files if they are of any value to anyone. I have looked through ads*.log and have not found anything that would tell me it has issues querying the ADsite.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Removal of the DC should be unrelated as they is no direct communication. Deleting the boundary/group and re-add them.

  • Boundaries and Boundary Groups - 300 Physical locations

    Hey guys -
    I'm going to be deploying 300 or so Pull DP's across our environment.  For the most part, it's one Pull-DP per physical location, with very little overlap.  Only one site.
    Based on what I'm reading, I'll need 300 Boundaries and 300 (seemingly identical) Boundary Groups, with one boundary per group.  Am I getting this right?  It doesn't seem that the new "Boundary Groups" really offers any benefits to us,
    unless I am missing something; it's simply extra work for us.
    Please correct me if I'm wrong though, and thanks!

    Hi,
    You are correct you need a Boundary and a Boundary Group per Pull DP. Boundary groups makes it possible to use a boundary for Site assignment or Content location and you can reuse the boundaries created.

  • TS Clients busting through Boundary Groups to place USMT Capture on remote SMP

    I am having an issue with clients running a TS with USMT capture.  I have 66 SMPs in our Single Primary Site SCCM 2012 SP1. We have one Boundary Group that has 15 DP/SMP servers on it that represents locations that are connected by a 6GB fiber
    ring. Then I have 51 other boundary groups that are smaller WAN connected locations, each boundary group has a DP/SMP server on site to accommodate clients at those locations.  
    I am using boundaries created by AD forest discovery.  I have 12 AD sites that I have in one boundary group called PS1 which is used for site assignment only there are no content servers listed for that BG.  The other boundary groups were created
    using the IP range Boundaries that were created when AD Forest Discovery did its thing. 
    My issue is that Clients in the smaller sites don't seem to understand the Boundary Groups for SMP purposes.  I can see in the SMSTS log that the client sends a request to the MP for a list of available state migration points.  I can see the client
    received 160338 byte response.  The list parses out and I can see a list of all the SMPs, the AD site for that server and one (not all) of the "subnets" associated with that SMP.   That there are subnets in the message is strange because
    the boundaries are actually IP Ranges.   Also the list as I look at it in CMTrace is truncated and doesn't seem complete.
    But instead of knowing which SMP to go to the Client seems to begin attempting to log into each SMP  until it finds one that it can get into then uses it.  I can see the client begin to download the USMT package from the correct DP while it prepares
    to ignore the SMP located on that same server and go across 2 wan links to put the USMT capture on a machine that is clearly not in its boundary group.
    I can paste logs here, but it might help to understand better the process of SMP selection.  Also some of the networks in AD sites and services are large class B networks like 10.173.0.0\16 but in reality the client computers at that site are being
    subnetted into Class C networks.  Which might be an issue, but the boundaries created when AD Forest Discovery runs are setup as IP Ranges. 
    I have validated that each boundary created is in only one boundary group and each DP/SMP is only in one boundary group. 
    Anyone know how SMP selection really works?

    Hi!
    Well, I turned off the WiFi physical switch, turned on the computer and then I did:
    sudo systemctl disable NetworkManager
    sudo systemctl disable dhcpcd
    sudo systemctl disable netctl
    I'm not sure if that's enough.
    Then I rebooted the machine, connected the ethernet cable, and:
    [me@there ~]$ sudo dhcpcd
    dhcpcd[520]: version 6.1.0 starting
    dhcpcd[520]: no interfaces have a carrier
    dhcpcd[520]: forced to background, child pid 639
    I ping Google, and I could reach it, but I could not connect some other device. Then:
    [me@there ~]$ sudo dhcpcd -x
    dhcpcd[742]: sending signal 15 to pid 639
    dhcpcd[742]: waiting por pid 693 to exit
    Again:
    [me@there ~]$ sudo dhcpcd
    dhcpcd[746]: version 6.1.0 starting
    dhcpcd[746]: wlp3s0: up_interface: Operation not possible due to RF-kill
    dhcpcd[746]: enp2s0: rebinding lease of 192.168.1.70
    dhcpcd[746]: wlp3s0: waiting for a carrier
    dhcpcd[746]: no interfaces have a carrier
    dhcpcd[746]: enp2s0: soliciting a DHCP lease
    dhcpcd[746]: timed out
    dhcpcd[746]: forced to background, child pid 868
    And, just to be sure, ping returned "unknown host".
    After a while, the router restarted.
    I also looked for a newer firmware for my router, but I couldn't find one, nor the manufacturer home page.
    And I have thought like that, fukawi2, ArchLinux is so Up-To-Date, other things may fail.
    I can request a new router to my ISP, but I may encounter this issue again when I use my laptop somewhere else.

  • Standalone Primary Site and Boundary Groups

    Do I need to configure a Site Assignment Boundary Group for a Standalone Primary Site?
    Unless I am reading this wrong, Torsten said no here: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/4979ac47-593a-4490-9b48-b8f278f39cb7/we-are-in-the-process-of-migrating-from-2007-to-2012-r2-can-we-block-boundary-migration?forum=configmanagermigration
    Does that also go for a Content Location Boundary group as well? Do I need to configure a Content Location Boundary Group in a Standalone Primary Site if all the site system roles are all on one server and there are no remote DPs or Secondary Sites?
    Thanks

    There's no overlappings with other sites since there are no other sites.
    So you're saying I can set up one, but it is not necessary for this scenario with a Standalone Primary Site?
    If I don't set up one, but sometime down the road in the future if a Secondary Site is going to be configured somewhere, then I would need to setup one, so it would be best to do it now to get it out of the way, right?
    Danke, Torsten

  • [SOLVED] - Create Boot Media to Retrieve Content from a Specific Distribution Point Regardless of Boundary/Boundary Group?

    I think I'm a little confused because maybe I missed something somewhere.
    I'd like to create bootable meda that would pull the content from a specific DP no matter where the device was physically.  So if the machine is in Boundary A/B/C within Boundary Group group A/B/C, that media should
    always pull from Distribution Point 'F'.
    During the task sequence media creation process, on the 'Boot Image' page, you're asked to select a distribution point so I believed that was all I needed to do.  But even though I selected a specific DP, DP F, when creating the media,
    during the operating system deployment task sequence, I saw it was pulling the image from another DP; a remote DP for that matter. Imaging over the WAN is not ideal! 
    I double checked the Boundaries and with the exception of 1 overarching boundary, there were no other overlapping Boundaries.  I then checked the Boundary Groups to confirm the Boundaries were associated with the correct Boundary Group (e.g.: all IP's
    at site A are in Boundary Group A) and that the correct site system server had been specified for each Boundary Group.
    Why the overarching overlap?  I wanted to cover scenarios where a local DP had not yet been stood up or simply didn't exist.  We frequently stand up several ad-hoc small 'offices' of just 1-3 people with bare-bones infrastructure.  I
    wanted them to fall back to HQ if they needed anything versus configuring separate Boundaries for each one as the ranges vary each time.
    First question is, am I doing something wrong or is this just not possible?
    Second, HQ is a fallback source location for content, and that's where this particular system was pulling content from.  If the DP I specified during the TS Media creation is missing content, how can I confirm this and validate that the client was directed
    to the fallback source which is HQ?

    That cannot be done. DPs will be determined dynamically. The DP used in the wizard is for downloading the content just for creating the media.

    Oh man - thank you for clearing that up.  Sheesh I was thinking about that the wrong way.

  • Can anyone explain in the Boundary Groups the Setting of Connection SLOW and FAST?

    Hello,
    we have many locations with DP´s and created Boundary Groups with the Connection FAST.
    Now we have some Clients outside they are connected only with UMTS or DSL.
    For DSL the connections is set to FAST and for UMTS is set to SLOW.
    I must explain that i take over a configuration because i am a new employee here.
    Can anyone explain me the different, in detail, of SLOW and FAST?
    thank you well and with best regards.
    André

    Quote from here:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg712679.aspx#BKMK_BoudnaryNetworkSpeed
    "You can configure the network connection speed of each distribution point in a boundary group. Clients use this value when they connect to the distribution point. By default, the network connection speed is configured as
    Fast, but it can also be configured as Slow. The network connection speed and the deployment configuration determine whether a client can download content from a distribution point
    when the client is in an associated boundary group."
    So basically, when you deploy something, this setting determines does the client download the content or not. Shown in the bellow picture:
    For example, if you have a client configured inside boundary group that's 'Slow' and then you deploy something to this client, you can configure does the deployment run or not.

  • Boundaries / Boundary Groups

    We have a standalone primary site SCCM 2007 install.  I have also installed SCCM 2012 R2 in our environment as we start the process of migrating (really we're not migrating anything, just migrating clients once it's ready).
    Right now I plan on just manually pushing out clients (i.e. right-click, Install client) to a majority of the clients to migrate them over to 2012 R2.  Once a majority are migrated I will disable client push on the SCCM 2007 side and enable it in SCCM
    2012 to finish off the remaining clients.
    A few people have mentioned that since I have a standalone primary site, I don't need to worry about boundaries or boundary groups.  How should I be configuring boundaries and boundary groups on the SCCM 2012 R2 side?
    Thanks

    If the questions is what method, I would use IP Ranges. Still seem more accurate then using the AD Sites. SCCM can discover your IP Ranges so you can click a checkbox and assign them to the site.
    I prefer AD Sites & Services so there is one spot where we manage IPs vs manually adding new IP ranges to SCCM and AD.
    I think you are miss-understanding what I said. SCCM can discover your ranges using "Active Directory Forest Discovery", so no "manual" work to create the ranges. Would just need to assign them to a boundary group. If I recall correctly the general population
    suggest ranges too.
    I think I understand, however are you saying I should uncheck "Automatically create AD site boundariies when they are discovered" and check "Automatically create IP address range boundaries for IP subnets when they are discovered"?

    Hi,
    What are the payment terms on the invoices? If these are not IMMEDIATE, and the payment is not due, the system would not pick them up until they are due.
    What is the payment method on the invoice and in the PPR? Are you running the PPR for electronically paid invoices but the invoices are set to be paid by check?
    Are there any holds on the suppliers you are trying to pay?
    What are the other parameters you gave when running the PPR? It helps to check those against the invoice to make sure they would qualify.
    Information about the pararameters you are using and one of the invoices to be selected would be helpful.
