SCCM and use App-V Shared Content Mode.

Question

Hello,
I am trying to use SCCM 2012 R2 with App-V 5.0 SP2 HF4 to use the Shared Content Store.
The App-V client is installed with the sharedcontentstoremode=1. When i deploy the app-v application with SCCM the content still hits the local disk of the client (streaming/Downloading). Is it just not possible to use the shared content store mode with
SCCM app-v application deployment or do i need to set some extra registry settings? I am unable to find any documentation that explains the way to configure SCCM/APP-v to use the Shared Content Store. The documenation i find is only related to the Full
App-v infrastructure.

Answer 1

It has the status "ready for offline use" so that is not oke. The SCS value is 1 so that is oke.

What i expect here is that the lng files and icon file are placed on the disk, the .exe and DLL files etc are run from DP. Are you sure SCS will work with SCCM deployment? I am unable to find proper documentation explaining the combination SCCM-->APP-V
and SCS. All documents about the SCS are written about a FULL App-v Infrastructure.
Thank you.
