Sccm software deployment
Dear Exprt,
How could i create advertice in sccm 2007 for software deployment as follows.
1.First remove older version
2.Prompt to user for computer restart.
3. once restarted run again software installation

I appreciate that this isn't exactly what you've requested, but I can't give any better advice than the previous posters!
If possible, I'd suggest that you set the advertisement to only apply when No user is logged in, and set the success return code as Hard Reboot. Also set the advertisement as Required.
Providing no user is logged in, the computer will install and then reboot. As for the installation of the new version... On
the Options tab you can set a condition based on a WMI query, registry setting, or installed product code.
Your users actually log off? How about the user who powers the machine off, powers on the next day and about the time he gets logged in his machine is forcefully rebooted?
I haven't looked at a 2007 site in a couple years now but I don't recall there being options that you are speaking of.

Frustrated with SCCM Software Deployment - GRRRRRRRRR
I made a change to an application which changed the revision from 4 to 5. I redistributed content so all my DPs are showing Revision 5. When I update my Machine Policy and then my Application Enforcement policy the workstation is still trying
to run revision 4 (per AppEnforce log).
I even deleted the deployment and redeployed - no joy in appville.
This has happened on other applications - the last one I ended up deleting the app and recreating but since I often have to tweak apps as I'm creating them that is not a good long-term solution.
Any suggestions will be GREATLY appreciated.Hi,
Have you resolved this problem?

Uninstalled software deployed by SCCM still remains in Installed Applications
Hi experts
I noticed when we manually uninstalled a software which was deployed via SCCM, in Software Center, under Installed Applications, the software is still listed as installed there.
I know the only way to make the software unlisted under Software Center is to remove the software deployment on the Primary Site Server, refresh the client policy and the software will disappear from the Software Center, but that means it will disappear for
all the other computers which will need the software as well. I don't think this is a workable solution.
Possible to share if the uninstalled software will automatically disappear from the Installed Application to Available Application? If yes, how long would it take, does it depend on the next cycle where the SCCM client get new policies from the Primary Site
server?
The reason why I am asking this is because it might confuse the end user.
User: I thought you have uninstalled the software!
IT: Yes we did
User: Then why is it still listed under Installed Application in Software Center. It is bugging me! You didn't do your job.
Thank youHi,
You could check AppEnforce.log and CIAgent.log to confirm the current state for this application after running the Application Deployment Eval Cycle.
1. Find the ScopeID of the application in AppEnforce.log.
2. According to the ScopeID, check the current state for this application.

Deployment to the client is successful but the error reported within Clients "SCCM Software Center"
The software change returned error code 0x87D00324(-2016410844).
Also States on "Status" Past Due - Will be Retired"
Can't figure this one out and I did some googling with no success in finding a solution?
I am running an Adobe Flash install (.EXE)
Any help or direction would be greatly appreciated
RFHi,
Thank you for your response
""Wow6432Node is not valid on x86 systems."""
Yes, that I am aware of that.....Windows on Windows, for running x86 apps on x64 Windows<o:p></o:p>
When I first created the detection method I had only created the "WoW" Check
for Flash value in the reg, which was running against both x86 & x64 Win 7
systems, and forgot to include the x64 check/, either case, the error appeared
on the WOW check. Presently I have 2 "Detection Clauses" one for x86
and the second clause is x64 ( non WOW Path), and still receive the same erorrs
on both x86 & x64 systems. ( and x64 system have both reg entries since Win 7 has both x86 & x64 versions of IE)
Looking at the registry of an x64 Win 7 system I find the Adobe Flash registry entry is
located in both Wow6432Node and also in the x64 sections of the reg.....<o:p></o:p>
""""Also, why use the default value? I doubt there's anything in there (the default value is the
value display in a key in regedit with the name of
"@").""""<o:p></o:p>
When Default Value is selected the boxes/options below that allow for more detailed
information to be entered when performing the "reg check"? This is
where I had been able to enter specific Build/Version to look for, Flash
11.4.402.265, so that if it does not discover the build # it will proceed with
the install.....<o:p></o:p>
I figured having the option to check for Build/Version # would omit SCCM reinstalling on
systems that have build 11.4.402.265 already?<o:p></o:p>
From what I understand is that Adobe Flash x64 installs both versions x86 & x64 since Win 7 has both IE
x86 & IE x64 bit versions by default, and this would explain the Wow6432Node reg
entries and the true x64 reg entries in both locations when installing.
Overall, I am thinking I may be heading in the wrong direction in resolving this, as x86 & x64 versions install on the systems, so this tells me it is detecting when / what needs to be installed, the issue seems to be how it reports back after installing......
Looking further, I view the Content Status Page, and there reporting info in Asset Detail under [Success] all others { / In Progresss / Error /Unknown } has no info......
If this helps provide further details.....
Thanks
Regards,
Ron

Hi,
I am using SCCM 2012 R2, for Software deployment to users instead of System, is User and Device Affinity need to configure ??
User and Device Affinity configuration is perquisites for deploying the software to Users?
Shailendra DevNo it's not. It would only be needed if you make use of the requirement "primary device = true".

Single Instance(Adhoc) Software deployment by Service Desk
For some tools there are ways to provide a URL to the Helpdesk Team using which they can deploy one-off adhoc software deployment requests. Whats the best way to do it with SCCM 2012.
Is installing the Console on their machines and give appropriate role access to them the only way?"Here is the current solution I'musing...
At least for now, the easiest thing I could come up with is the following:
1. Created a Collection Folder named "Application Deployment" which inside holds a Collection named for each application they need to deploy. These Collections have no queries.
2. Deployed / Advertised each Application to it's corresponding Collection I created above. All are set to immediatly install.
3. Deployed SCCM Admin Console to each of their computers. They now have rights and have been trained only to be able to copy a hostname to one of these existing Collections, then use Right Click Tools to force a machine policy refresh if needed."

Software deployment never works
The software deployment component has not been updated since windows server 2000 as far as i can see and it has never worked well, requires .msi and is just rubbish.
Why is there by now no good way to roll out software to users and why does the software gpo never install and uninstall software correctly, always comes up with pointless errors in the event log that never help.
Why is there no effort to improve this basic functionality?
SME are not going to buy SCCM and sccm is not that much better at rolling out software anyway.
I end up having to use login scripts and other non sense.Yes, I have rolled out a thin image with MDT and so on.
One of the problems is that i installed X software as user context with gpo with a version 10.0. to windows 7 32bit roaming profiles.
Then I applied update to X software server to 10.2, swapped out the msi with the 10.2 version, then users moved to windows 7 64bit with new policy and new image from mdt. Then when they log in with roaming profile the gpo tries to install 10.2 of the software
and it says it can't remove the previous version. I don't see why it needs to remove the previous version because it doesn't. Running the msi within the user session manually works without admin rights and any issues, so i know there is no problem with the
msi.
I should have applied the 10.2 update to the users profiles before they moved to the new image and this would have allowed for the previous version to be detected properly. Even though I have tried pushing out the new version to the old image, it still fails
in teh same way.
Is it not possible to remove the package 10.0 then add package 10.2. Do i realy have to keep 10.0 in there and than add 10.2 and go to upgrades tab and specify that 10.2 is the new version of 10.0. Is it realy that rubbish that it can't just isntall the
msi?
However even just pushing out a flash update fails. Comes up with similar problems trying to find the previous version.I tried removing the previous version from program and features to see if it would work if there was no version installed it has similar
problems. -

Has anyone used the PI 2.0 Software Deployment with VSS systems like 6500 or 4500? Does it work? Does it upgrade the image in eFSU? Should VSS systems be manually updated?
Finally are there any guides or documentation on using PI 2.0 to deploy / upgrade images for platforms like 6500 / 4500 running VSS mode?
Thanks,

Csa 6.0 problem with software deployment tool
Hi Guys,
I am having some problems with csa 6.0 and a software deployment tool called capainstaller, it resides on the client and picks up packages on some server shares and executes them from there, or copies it locally. We have added it to the class that defines mass software deployment like we did in 5.2, which works fine in 5.2, in 6.0 we are getting alot of applications getting put into @untrusted, for some reason. I can't figure out if i am supposed to make general exeptions for shares and local directories where the deployment tool reads its packages from ? In that case which classes should i modify, i am seeing alot of classification from the module called Security - Untrusted Content Classification, and this gives me alot of headaches.Well, the Mass Software Deployment class, is where you are supposed to put marimba, in 5.2 this was fine, and worked for most of the installations i have done. in 6.0 the big break came when i found out that you can't use UNC network paths in a file set, it just doesn't work. If you put it is a literal straight in the same field as the altiris and sms are in the built-in rules, that works, maybe your marimba agent is also part locally installed and part gotten from the network like ours is ?

ZIt's very easy with Time Machine (which is built into the OS). Just turn on Time Machine in System Preferences, plug in an external hard drive, and you should be asked whether you want to use that drive for TM. (Warning: this will erase the drive, so don't do this if there's data on the drive!)
For more about backups, see my Mac Backup Guide, as well as Pondini's excellent Time Machine FAQ.
