SCCM Client Installation - Options for "Retry" Setting

Hey Guys -
I've got a fairly straightforward question for you. When the SCCM Client is installed / deployed to a system, successfully downloads locally, but fails, it retries installation by default every 30 minutes. When creating an Orchestrator runbook
for Client Health, I'm needing ccmsetup to try only once.
So basically, I'm trying to find out how to make ccmsetup.exe not retry installation and simply fail. There is a "Retry" command line switch for ccmsetup (/retry:<Minutes>) where
minutes may be specified, however, this does not pertain to the actual installation, but the initial download of the setup files. It does not have an affect on the client installation, itself.
Yes, a simple script could be created which could kill the process after X, but prefer a native (or at least better) solution.
Any ideas? Thanks!
Ben K.

Hey - Thanks for the reply...
I totally understand what you are saying - but - the only reason I thought I'd ask is because it's being used in an Orchestrator Runbook as mentioned and processes which run after it won't start until it completes. When it loops, it never completes.
Basically, yes - I understand what you are saying and have done it 100 times, but in this case was wondering if there was a more "supported" method by chance.
Thanks -
Ben K.

Locked SCCM Client Package waiting for prestaged content, Cant use Client Push

Hi there,
I am having an issue with client push. When initiated the client is unable to find the client install package on the DP. The CCMSETUP log file on the client reads "MP xxxxx.xxx.com didnt return DP locations for client package with the expected
version". This could be caused by a boundry issue but the boundry information is set up correctly, and published into AD.
The SCCM Client on the site server is not getting replicated properly to the DP's that we have setup and I think that this is causing the issue. The reason why its not gettiog to the DP is due to this error: "Distribution Manager is waiting for Package SG100001
content to be prestaged on the distribution point" when we look at the content status of the SCCM client Package.
We are unable to change the prestaged distribution point settings "automatic" as the package is the locked as its the SCCM client installation package and its waiting for us to prestage it on the DP. I have tried prestaging it, but it didnt
work
Any ideas as I have been stuck for two days on this now...
Thanks in advanced.
George

Torsten you were right, The solution was as follows for anyone else having the same issue.
As soon as you create a DP it appears that the client installation package automatically tries to distribute to the DP. If you created the DP as "Enabled for Prestage" while doing the setup then the SCCM client package will just wait for you to
copy it manually. To reslove this I had to remove the "Enabled for Prestage Content" from the DP then go into the SCCM client Package, content location tab, select the DP and redistribute the package to the DP.
Checking the Distribution Manager and PkgXferMgr.log assisted me in monitoring the content transfer to the new location.
Thanks for your assistance.
George
George, I too concur that this fixed the issue.
I had the same problem with my SCCM 2012 R2 CU4, where i updated the distribution point for the Configuration Manager Client Package. Thanks a million!

Install "use typical installation options for a stand-alone primary site" All SQL Prerequisites Failed. Checks SQL before SQL is even installed?

So I select the install option to "Use typical installation options for a stand-alone primary site" which says it includes installation of SQL 2012 SP1 on the local server.
But then during the prerequisite checks it fails every SQL check.
Is it just me or a giant catch 22? Am I missing something here? How is this over looked if it is what it looks like? Why even have this simple install option if it can't work?

Take a look at my R2 install guide. This is for a stand alone primary. As Torsten states you pretty much need SQL installed and configured correctly prior to running the ConfigMgr install - along with a few other pre-reqs.

Command line to run the SCCM client installation

SCCM Client package have been distributed to all servers. It will be available in \\servername\smspkgf$\GS2002B2
Do we need a command line to run the SCCM client installation manually?

SCCM Client Installation Error and compmgr service issues

Hi dudes,
Hope you all are good. I am getting stuck in SCCM client installation. I have SCCM 2007 R3 setup. It's working perfect but recently getting errors in
sccm client installation after facing some viruses issues in my environment.
I search on that error but nothing found any relevant information related
to the below error. I tried to manually installing the client but getting the error ccmsetup.exe is not a valid 32 bit application :(. Also while trying to start the configmgr service manager in tool box it gives the below snapshot error. Any help relevant
to the below error very meaningful for me.
Regards,
Mohsin

Hi Jason,
Thank You for your response. Yes i tried it to manually start the service on client machine but it give the below error,
For component service manager, yes we are going forward to the restoration process using VM restore(as sccm is deployed on a VM and we take the full vm backup).

Prevent SCCM Client Installation on the target computers

I need a sure-fire way to prevent manual, automated, deployment, or push SCCM Client installs from specific computers (they are medical, and will violate FDA regulations if non-approved software is installed on them). I'm aware of the Registry entry
on the Site Server, but, am looking for something on the target computer side (RegHack, phoney file/folder, etc.). Discovery of the computers, but inability to install the client is OK (we'll be removing them from the Discovery LDAP queries
as needed).
Our SCCM Hierarchy is in one Domain, and the clients all in other Domains, so, I could look at excluding the client install account, but, that won't stop a manual or automated install.
Thanks.

Now, firewalls on both DP01 and DP02 servers are disabled, as are the domain firewalls on both SCCM00 and SCCM02 servers.
I CAN open IE and go to HTTPS://SCCM02.web.Skynet.com:443/CCM_Client and download the files, this works on both DP01 and DP02. So the server does have access, I can also use SMB to browse to the SCCM installation path on the SCCM server from both DP01/02.
Certs on both SCCM servers and DP01/02 servers are valid and not expired.
Boundary groups are setup for the servers.
Other servers and Windows OS boxes have had no issues with client installs or DP role installs, its just these two.
I've restarted both DP and SCCM servers and still get the same error.
Pinging SCCM servers from DP servers has the correct IP's and times less than 120ms.
I know the HTTPS 403 error is Access is Denied, but I can browse to the site with no problems...

SCCM Client installation to only Online machines from All Systems Device collection through Client Push

Hi,
How can we create a device collection based on only online machines , than use that collection to install the sccm client through client push method.
Shailendra Dev

You can run a ping report and then create a collection from only the online machines:
Ping Report Script (Put the machine list in "pclist.txt" in the same folder):
Const ForReading = 1
Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set objShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
If not objFSO.FileExists("Pclist.txt") THEN
wscript.echo "File not found,"&_
vbcrlf&"with a hard return at the end of each line."
wscript.quit
end if
tempobj="temp.txt"
Set objTextFile = objFSO.OpenTextFile("Pclist.txt", ForReading)
logfile="results.csv"
Set ofile=objFSO.CreateTextFile(logfile,True)
strText = objTextFile.ReadAll
objTextFile.Close
wscript.echo "Ping starting"
ofile.WriteLine ","&"Ping Report -- Date: " & Now() & vbCrLf
arrComputers = Split(strText, vbCrLF)
for each item in arrcomputers
objShell.Run "cmd /c ping -n 1 -w 1200 " & item & " >temp.txt", 0, True
Set tempfile = objFSO.OpenTextFile(tempobj,ForReading)
Do Until tempfile.AtEndOfStream
temp=tempfile.readall
striploc = InStr(temp,"[")
        If striploc=0 Then
            strip=""
        Else
            strip=Mid(temp,striploc,16)
            strip=Replace(strip,"[","")
            strip=Replace(strip,"]","")
            strip=Replace(strip,"w"," ")
            strip=Replace(strip," ","")
        End If
        If InStr(temp, "Reply from") Then
             ofile.writeline item & ","&strip&","&"Online."
        ElseIf InStr(temp, "Request timed out.") Then
             ofile.writeline item &","&strip&","&"No response (Offline)."
        ELSEIf InStr(temp, "try again") Then
             ofile.writeline item & ","&strip&","&"Unknown host (no DNS entry)."
End If
Loop
Next
tempfile.close
objfso.deletefile(tempobj)

Missing "Add Records" and "Refresh Records" options for data sets post domain re-import

We recently had to re-install the Endeca server and as part of which had to export and re-import the data domains. Everything went fine except for the fact that newly re-imported data sets showcase just the "Manage Attributes" and the "Delete Data Set" options for an administrator login in. The previously available options to "Add Records" and "Refresh Records" beyond manage attributes/Delete Data Set are missing.
Thoughts? Is there a security setting to enable these?

So are you talking about the Add Records and Reload Records options for a data set in Studio?
There are no separate security settings for these options. If a user is an application administrator (is able to edit the application), then they should have access to these options.
The options are only available for data domains created using the Provisioning Service (created by uploading a file or from the JDBC or BI Server data source from the Data Source Library).
I don't know if the process of exporting and re-importing the data domains (not sure how you did that) could somehow cause the data sets to no longer know that they were created by the Provisioning Service, in which case those options would not be enabled.

Remote installation option for SAPsetup installation server removed.

Hi all,
I have been using SAPsetup Installation Server for distributing SAPGUI 6.4. Many options with this version, remote installation and Load Balancing to name a couple right within SAPADMIN. I have put the latest version 7.10 on a test server and those options are no longer available. Also I don't even see and upgrade option, am I missing something? Is it possible to use the old installation server to push out the new SAPGUI, if so how?
Thanks,
Jeff

Hello Jeff,
the installation software for SAPGUI 7.10is completely new and you can't distribute a SAPGUI 7.10 with an Installation Serrver installed with the SAPGUI 6.40 CD.

Is WMI required SCCM client 2007 agent for working

A Quick Qustion
Is WMI required SCCM client agent for working
what is the neccesity for WMI on SCCM client agent 2007
How SCCM CLient affect if WMI corrupt
could any one explaine
Its not only a question I am facing sccm client agent corrupted
shinu

Yes, functional WMI is a requirement for the SCCM client to work. One sign of WMI being corrupt is that the client won't receive any policies from the MP.

Installation Options for iMovie HD on Snow Leopard system with iLife '09

Greetings and thank-you for contributing suggestions on what is a well worn subject. I have read many of the posts existing on this topic and am trying to nip some details.
I have a late 2006 iMac that came with Tiger and iMovie HD which is now at version 6.0.3. When I upgraded to Snow Leopard (Boxed Set) I got iLife 09 but, as it was supposed to do, it left me iMovie HD which is what I have used. I have both sets of installation DVD's. (from the iMac and the SL upgrade)
Today I got a new MacMini and am plotting how to get iMovie HD on it.
I gather that I first need to remove iMovie 09 from the Mini. I do that by dragging its application bundle in finder to the trash and removing any receipt packages.
Do I have to remove all of the iLife 09 applications or just iMovie 09?
Then, I reinstall either all of iLife 06 from the iMac DVD or just iMovie HD. After that I can load iLife 09 from the SL DVD. That will leave the iMovie HD on the system but upgrade everything else.
Should I run software update from iMovie HD to try to get the 6.0.3 version or download and run the upgrade image? Does it matter?
I am good to go. Did I miss anything?
I also have a SuperDuper clone of the iMac system. Another possibility is to boot from that and clone it to the new Mini. Does anyone think this is a better idea?
Thanks again for the insights of your experience.

I think the issue is that if you install iMovie 06 on a system with iMovie 09 installed, iMovie 6 has no knowledge that iMovie 09 exists. Therefore iMovie 6 installs itself in the iMovie folder in the Applications Folder and assumes anything in there is old and can be trashed.
Apple fixed this with iMovie 6.04, but this is no longer available.
But if you install iMovie 6 first, and iMovie 9 second, iMovie 9 knows about iMovie 6 and will move it to a folder called "iMovie - Previous Versions".
In your case, I would uninstall iMovie 09 as you started to do, then run the migration assistant, then reinstall iMovie 09.
It should also work to create a folder on your old system called "iMovie - Previous Versions". Drag the iMovie 6 app into this folder and verify that it works. Then do the Migration Assistant. This should work, but I hesitate to recommend it because I have not tested it. Best case, it installs and you did not even have to uninstall iMovie 09. Worst case, delete the iMovie folder and reinstall iMovie 09.
For what its worth, I recently did a Migration Assistant from a SuperDuper clone (after a failed hard disk) that had both iMovie 09 and iMovie 6 installed, and it worked fine. But I have not tried your scenario.
I would use Migration Assistant because then you have the correct version of Snow Leopard for your system. You may not if you use a clone. A new machine may have microcode that is not released to the general release of OSX for several months. If your Mini is a used one and at least 6 months old, a clone should work OK.
