SCCM 2012 Application rollout timings

Just getting to grips with SCCM 2012, have a deployed Adobe Flash 13 to a bunch of users. How does SCCM handle this?
i.e.
Does it deploy straight away once a user logs on or is there other criterea taken into account?

The user has to become member of the collection (if he/she is not yet in it), the client has to retrieve policies (which happens on a scheduled basis, after login or when unlocking the PC). Then it depends on the way you created the deployment: available:
user has to start the installation using the application catalog. required: the application will be installed at the deadline.

SCCM 2012 application portal: config questions

Hi,
We have setup SCCM 2012 application portal correctly and it's working fine.
However some config questions:
-can we change the name of the configuration portal? Now its servername/CMApplicationCatalog ... what's not userfriendly.
We'd like it to be applicationportal.ourcompany.com. Howto achieve that?
-can we customize layout in a supported way (we could change html pages but after an upgrade of SCCM they would/could be erased)?
-how does flexera (adminstudio?) plugs in into this. I've read this entry
http://helpnet.installshield.com/appportal2014/Content/helplibrary/AP_CreatingCatItemSCCM.htm but what's the big picture here? Anybody using this? What are the advantages?

We want to offer software center for overview of mandatory installs, application catalog for optional software.
On our companies portal, we can then set a link which directs to the application portal. User can then install optional software from there.
My current config works http://applicationportal.ourcompany.com/ goes to the sccm-server but not to the url below.
That would be http://applicationportal.ourcompany.com/CMApplicationCatalog/#/SoftwareLibrary/AppListPageView.xaml
how can I make sure the application portal shows up when this link is opened?
It sounds like you want to perform a URL rewrite?
http://www.iis.net/learn/extensions/url-rewrite-module/creating-rewrite-rules-for-the-url-rewrite-module
You should test this to see if it's what you want - I may have misunderstood your question.
Also, I wouldn't host this module on your AppCatalog server, I'd host the rewrite module elsewhere.

Are there any command line utilities(@client machine)/APIs to initate software installtion from SCCM 2012 application catalog?

I'm searching for any utilities / APIs available for SCCM 2012 Application catalog, to initiate a Application installation from a Script(From client machine). Got to know there Client programming is possible, but not able to get good examples. Please help

SCCM 2012 Application Catalog Website Point role Status is critical

Hi team,
In a client's SCCM 2012 R2 environment there is a Critical Icon and Status against one of two Application Catalog Website point roles. Looking at the Component status, there are no errors and all the components show as green.
Trying to find any warnings or errors in the messages for the Site System role doesnt show any errors, and I tried to reset counts but this has not changed the status.
I am not sure where to go from here. The application catalog itself works and is up. All the services are running. I am unsure as to where this error status comes from or what it pertains to.
Any advice would be appreciated.

Hi,
Please check portlctl.log and awebsctl.log to see if there is any error.
You could also check the thread below.
Symptom: Reporting Services Point Status (under Monitoring - System Status - Site Status) appears as Critical, No error messages in logs or status messages
Cause: 'Status' can be set to "2" for 'SMS SRS Reporting Point' in dbo.summarizer_sitesystem table in sql
Resolution: > Run below query:
update dbo.summarizer_sitesystem set status = '0' where SiteSystem = '["Display=\\abc.local\"]MSWNET:["SMS_SITE=ABC"]\\abc.local\' and role = 'SMS SRS Reporting Point'
> It should set the status back to 0.
> Check in console and errors should go away.
> In case if value reverts back then check below namespace in wmi of site server:
root\sms\site_pri\sms_sitesystemsummarizer
> check the value for reporting services point, ideally it should be 0, let's say it's set to 2 there as well then remove role of reporting services point.
> if entry for reporting services point goes away from both the places then it's good, you can re-install the reporting services point and it should work fine.
> Let's say if value/values doesn't get removed from sql/wmi , remove them manually via queries and then go with uninstall and re-install.
> then it should work and errors in console and common.log should go away.

SCCM 2012 application catalog items not showing up

I have an SCCM 2012 package which is being deployed to a device collection
The users are not seeing this package appear in the application catalog, nor is it appearing in the software centre
Can we no longer deploy (advertise) to device collections for the users to install when needed?

If it is not appearing in Software Center, then either the deployment policy has not been retrieved by the client, it is not in the target collection, or has been filtered out due to platform restrictions (or some other restriction like that). Or the client
is not able to communicate with the MP, which would be a cause of the first option (the policy has not been retrieved by the client). You'd need to check to ensure that all is working on that end.

SCCM 2012 Application and Packages Distribution

Hi Giants,
Its Great to work with SCCM 2012 with plenty of New Features.
Let me explain my requirement.
1. Office 2010 Professional Plus SP1 with 15 Language Packs included
-----MSP 1. Without Access
-----MSP 2. With Access
-----MSP 3. With Access and Retain Old Version Access
Now My Requirement.
1. We want to deploy Office with Access to "Collection 1" and Office without Access to "Collection 2"
2. If i create Office 2010 as a Application, i can create two deployment type with different command line, but i can select the deployment type while creating Deployment. [ There should of been a drop down option like Packages. :-( ]
3. If i create Office 2010 as a Package, i cannot use the detection method or requirement rules and even i cannot publish it to Application Catalog.
Now the Scenario.
1. I can create 2 application with same source with different command line and deploy to different collection, but if i update the content in the source package, i need to give a update content to both the applications.
2. Its not a big problem to give update content to both packages, but the problem is for 1st application if i give update content, sccm will find the difference and sent the changes to DP, and when i give update content to 2nd application the same process
happens and changes are transferred to DP.
Now the Problem
1. the effort involved in transferring the changes to DP becomes twice, which means 1 GB of changes will make 2 GB transfer to DP and when adding to Content Library, SCCM is smart enough to save 1 GB.
2. Is there any where we can avoid multiple transfer to DP which will eat the bandwidth.
3. Or is there a way to define which deployment type to used in Deployment.
4. Or is there a way to publish Packages to Application Catalog.
Thanks in Advance.

Hi Torsten,
Thanks for the reply.
1. if i create a single application with two different Deployment type, that is two different command line, which requirement rules i can use to differentiate them, because there is no logical separation for these command lines.
i.e. DT1. Office with Access and DT2. Office without Access.
this separation is done only for the license and is it possible to create a requirement in a way that only if this specific device in a specific collection user "With Access" or "Without Access"
2. Yes, CM12 is smart enough to save disk space with content library, but that smartness is missing while transferring the content to DP, which mean increase in Bandwidth utilization.
3. Great, i was not aware that Classic Packages can be published to Software Catalog.
Thanks Again,
SithaYuvaraj.

SCCM 2012: Application deployment stuck on 'Waiting to install '

I am setting up many new machines in the last month. But sometimes, when installing applications after rolling out an image. The applications wont install and display the waiting to install message. This mostly last for 1-2 hours but sometimes ever longer.
None of the logs that I have checked seem to give any indication why it will not move forward. Any
thoughts on how to troubleshoot?
For what it's worth, we are setup with a standalone primary site with one distribution point installed. SCCM 2012 SP1.
Thanks in advance.

Sccm 2012 application deployment fail

Hi Gents
I am attempting to deploy applications to a test machine. The software deployment reaches the test machine in the software center but it fails.
One Application had the status "Past due - will be installed"
The rest just state "Fail" with more information saying:
"The software change returned error code 0x80070005 (-2147024891)
I've been googling away here and iwll continue to do so until i find a resolution but hopefully you guys can help point me in the right direction.
Thanks for the help guys
Lee

Ok i got it to a point where the status of the applications is "waiting to install" so they download fine but not actually installing. I followed this link:
http://777notes.wordpress.com/2012/08/17/sccm-2012-local-content-cach-failed-for-workgroup-machine/ anbd enabled the anonymous checkbox. But still the apps arent installing.

SCCM 2012 Application Catalog shows ALL advertised to a user independant of the OS they are using

Within SCCM 2007 if a package was to be made available only to the following platforms, it would only show up on those platforms... If a user was using Win XP and had a package meant ONLY for Win7 advertised to them, they would not see it.... It seems as
though in CM12, if a user has advertisements meant for XP, Win7, 64 bit, etc... everything appears in teh application catalog. I also understand that the software center is meant for application publishing and not for regular packages as they were in 2007...
Is there a way to make the packages meant for XP to only appear in the users catalog and NOT show the Win 7 packages?
As we are in the middle of a Win 7 migration, we need to manage this without a lot of work within AD...

Hi,
In Configuration Manager 2012 packages and applications that are made available to users are always displayed in the Application Catalog, the platform requirement is not evaluated until the user actually tries to install the application then the requirements
are evaluated and the installation will not continue if there the requirements doesn't match the plattform.
Software Center will display all packages/programs and applications that are deployed as "available" to devices and not users. User targeted will always show up in the Application Catalog..

Jörgen

SCCM 2012 Collection Query Timings

I am just wondering about the logistics of the timings. I have most collections updating on 15 minute intervals, all of them on the same clock using Midnight and every 15 minutes after that. This is the basic setup I am using too, All Systems -> SCCM
Agents -> Software Deployment or other Collections.
Is the 15 minutes per collection additive, or hit and miss? For instance I load a new computer, it goes into All Systems, then at the 15 minute point moves into SCCM Agents. Will it propagate into the Software Deployment at or around the same time or would
it likely be in the next window of queries?

Why wouldn't you use the delta discovery? Update all collection every 15 minutes is a huge hit to your CM12 server.

How to query requirements of an sccm 2012 application

Dear all
I have some problem to create an OSLanguage or Device_OSLanguage Requirement using powershell script
it seems that the value passed to the script is not assume by sccm because the record is not availble on the console
i tryed with 1033 , en-us and so on with no good result
(the script is running with OS, Space Disk...)
so i would like to query the requirement values attached to the existing applications to check it and to retry to use my script with correct i hope values.
cou'ld you help me to resolve this locked problem of my project.
Many thanks
François

Hi
The trick is to create a CustomCollection of ConstantValue, add each ConstantValue to this CustomCollection then add this CustomCollection to the Expression by using the Int64Array DataType.
I did it like this in VB .Net and I'm sure you can do the same in PowerShell:
Dim aobjOperand As CustomCollection(Of ExpressionBase) = New CustomCollection(Of ExpressionBase)
Dim objOperand As ExpressionBase = New GlobalSettingReference("GLOBAL", "OSLanguage", DataType.Int64Array, "OSLanguage_Setting_LogicalName", ConfigurationItemSettingSourceType.CIM)
aobjOperand.Add(objOperand)
Dim aobjLangues As CustomCollection(Of ConstantValue) = New CustomCollection(Of ConstantValue)
aobjLangues.Add(New ConstantValue(CultureInfo.GetCultureInfo("fr").LCID.ToString, DataType.Int64))
aobjLangues.Add(New ConstantValue(CultureInfo.GetCultureInfo("fr-BE").LCID.ToString, DataType.Int64))
aobjLangues.Add(New ConstantValue(CultureInfo.GetCultureInfo("fr-CA").LCID.ToString, DataType.Int64))
aobjLangues.Add(New ConstantValue(CultureInfo.GetCultureInfo("fr-FR").LCID.ToString, DataType.Int64))
aobjLangues.Add(New ConstantValue(CultureInfo.GetCultureInfo("fr-LU").LCID.ToString, DataType.Int64))
aobjLangues.Add(New ConstantValue(CultureInfo.GetCultureInfo("fr-MC").LCID.ToString, DataType.Int64))
aobjLangues.Add(New ConstantValue(CultureInfo.GetCultureInfo("fr-CH").LCID.ToString, DataType.Int64))
objOperand = New ConstantValueList(aobjLangues, DataType.Int64Array)
aobjOperand.Add(objOperand)
Dim objExpression As Expression = New Expression(ExpressionOperator.OneOf, aobjOperand)
objRule = New Rule("Rule_" + Guid.NewGuid().ToString("D"),
NoncomplianceSeverity.None,
New Annotation("Langue du système d'exploitation", Nothing, Nothing, Nothing),
objExpression)

SCCM 2012 application run Powershell script and return codes

Hi,
I created an new application (imported as MSI) in SCCM 2012R2. After import I changed the deployment type installation program to run a Powershell script: powershell.exe -ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted -File "Install FactSet 2013 5I.ps1
My goal is to close some processes before installing the MSI. This works. But on a failure the application program also return code 0 (AppEnforce.log). Is it possible to pass the MSI return codes to SCCM.
Maybe anyone had the same or idea's to solve this? Thanks in advance.

Peter

It's really hard to tell from the code above because of the way it's listed, but are sure that even executes? I see at least one stray curly brace and a stray square bracket.
For the Start-Process cmdlet, have you tried without the -passthru parameter?
Also, using the actual parameters will make the code much more readable instead of relying on position.

SCCM 2012: application catalog asks for credentials

Hi,
Our application catalog was working fine for weeks. Now suddenly it asks for credentials, the sccm-server is added to trusted sites.
Please advise.
J.
Jan Hoedt

Disable it in client settings. Run a machine policy retrieval on an effected device. Confirm the policy run has complete in the policyevaluator.log. Check IE and confirm it's not trusted. Re-enable the setting and re-run process. Check it works or not.
Also ensure that nothing in GPO is overwriting what you have set in client settings.

SCCM 2012 application deployment installs on all systems regardless of specified count

Hi,
As the application is being deployed, the "Devices with Application" under Application Statistics is showing 723, when in fact only 10 systems have been added through Direct Rule. Under Deployment Status it reflects the right amount (Already Compliant
- 3 Assets; Success - 7 Assets).
Does anybody have any idea why it is slowly (over the period of 5 days now) it keeps installing the application on all systems (there are total of 1,500 systems)? Also the same application was used through task sequence, but I don't believe it is possible
to clone 723 computers over period of five days). Also, under the Supersedence tab has been set to upgrade old versions.
Checking with query shows that all 723 have been deployed.
Thanks,
Waldis

Hi,
Have you resolved this problem? As Jörgen said, you need to remove the old version application deployments.

SCCM 2012 Application Requirement Check and Recheck Interval

Looking for any information regarding the frequency that a Required Application will retry to check it's requirements if it fails to pass
a requirement at a deadline previously.
For example, the latest version of Java 7 Update 55 works best if IE is not up and running on the target machine in order to
install successfully and silently. So we created a requirement using a WQL query to detect if IE is up and running, and if IE is running to NOT install Java. However,
everyone pretty much always has IE up so its going to be tough to capture a time when these systems (85% laptops) meet the criteria for installation. We thought that we could try to install at a logged off state, but these systems are always on the move
and rarely left logged off and up and running so thats not an great option. Since this Java install is a Required Application it will be subject to Application Enforcement cycle which will run every 7 days, but that isn't frequent enough for us in this
example.
Anyone had to deal with something like this yet? Our options look like we might have to prompt the user, or increase the frequency
of the app enforcement cycle.
Appreciate any insight.
Thanks

In this case you indeed completely depend on the Application Deployment Evaluation Cycle.
For something like this I would start look at something like that this:
