SCEP Alerts

Can anyone explain the process of how an alert is generated for a detected virus? We have clients when connected over VPN that aren't generating AV alerts until they are physically on the network at some point later on. I'm able to connect
to the SCCM server over the VPN, so I'm not exactly sure what I'm missing.

Ok, but can the CM12 client see the site server? What does it say in the client's control panel? Does it say internet or intranet?

SCEP 2012 Customization of Alerts

Is it possible to customize SCEP alerts?
Is it possible to send an e-mail for only one active alert and close it after issue has been resolved?
Thanks

Hi,
No, the only "customization" you can do is when you configure your alerts for a collection, threshold et.c.
No, you will get an email for all active alerts if you have configured it so, you can use the thresholds to control when alerts are raised.

Alert for SCEP Clients at risk

Hi there
I've got some SCEP Clients in my Environment which are listed in the Endpoint Protection Dashboard with Status "At risk". These are Clients which were offline for an amount of time and now report an old Update Definition. Normally these
Clients get's updated and disappear from the Dashboard.
However in some case, the Clients Fails to get the newest update, and there are in our Network without being compliant. Is it possible to create an alert for Clients which doesn't have an up-to-date endpoint protection definitions (Those with Status "At
risk").
Now, i Need to manually check the Dashboard every morning if there are some new Clients with the Status at risk.
Thank you in advance!
Best regards, Simon

I haven't done anything with alerts and SCEP, what I have done is create Device Collections with a membership rule based upon certain states of the SCEP client. I have a collection for Virus Definitions 3-7 days old, and 7+ days old, SCEP installation
failed and SCEP Policy Application failed.
On my collections with old definitions I deploy the full definition update package. I update the package source once a day with powershell, and have the package set to redistribute once a day. Alerts for deployment thresholds are pretty easy to create, so
if the extra remediation of definitions doesn't fix non compliant computers, you can get alerts on those that fail...
I know the above isn't quite the solution you was looking for, but perhaps it can help.

SCEP Email Alerts Stopped Working in SCCM 2012 R2

System Center 2012 R2 alerts for SCEP have stopped sending emails upon an infection. Some infections, not all, are still being reported under the monitoring tab but an email is no longer sent. I have tried to test with the EICAR test files and
nothing was reported under monitoring. I tested the email through SCCM and it is working.
This happened once before and I deleted the subscription and added it back to get it working again. This time, no luck. Any help is appreciated.

Any errors/warnings in the NotiCtrl.log on the server?

Manage System Center Endpoint Protection (SCEP) policies for Internet-based clients

Hi,
I've recently change my SCCM configuration in order to allow internet-based clients registered in our domain to communicate with our primary site server. The objectives were to let us manage the SCEP policies of these clients and receive alerts
when they're infected even when they are on the road, so not connected to the local network.
Now, everything seems to be in place; PKI certificates for server and client, the DNS is configured, firewall route too...but I still cannot update the policies of my client when it's not connected to the local network.
I'm able to reach my primary site from my client when connected outside the network, but the policies won't update until I connect to the local network.
Is it actually possible to manage the policies and receive alerts from internet-based clients like I'm trying to do?
Thank you very much for your help

It's going to come down to log checking at this point to find where the failure is happening or the connection is not happening.
Initiate a machine policy refresh and watch the two logs noted above.
CAS.log may also be helpful as well as locationservices.log and clientlocation.log.
Try deploying an app as well and watch the logs.
Also, if the client is not properly getting policy, there's no way for it to know that you disabled client CRL checking on the site.

Ok so now I see an error in clientlocation.log that might be the cause of my problem.
[Domain joined client is in Internet]
[Rotating internet management point, new management point is : SERVER.DOMAIN.COM ...
[Unable to retrieve AD forest + domain membership] <- Pretty sure this is related to my issue
I guess it's because my AD schema is not extended, is that right?
EDIT: I thought this was the issue, but the AD schema seems to be extended already. Any idea of what could cause this error?
EDIT: Do I need to open ports in order for my client to be able to reach the AD or something? I thought that was the MP's job once we granted him full control access on the AD. Am I wrong?

Scep installing without defintions

I have SCEP installing on Workstations, but it looks like the policy and definitions are not applying. what am I missing

Have you setup custom anti-malware policy's?
Some really good trouble shooting info towards the later portion of this blog.

Once the clients have received all required policy's they should update SCEP definitons yes.
So you have created a software update group and deployment package, sent it out to your DP and deployed it to a collection?

SCEP Reports - Filter by ANY collection

Hi,
The SCEP reports in SCCM 2012 can only be run against a machine or by a collection which has a specific SCEP deployment going to it. We deploy SCEP at a top level so all devices get it but I want to be able to run reports against any collection so
we can report on infections by department for example. I had a go at modding the reports but didn't get far. Has anyone already customized these reports for this or is there another way?
Thanks

Found the answer myself, note to RTFM next time!
Collections are available for selection in the following cases:
When you select View this collection in the Endpoint Protection dashboard on the Alerts tab of the <collection name>Properties dialog box
When you deploy an Endpoint Protection antimalware policy to the collection.
When you enable and deploy Endpoint Protection client settings to the collection.
First option sorted it!

Force SCEP download from SCCM only

Does anyone know of a guide out there, that can show me how I can make sure servers in a DMZ zone, without any Internet Access, can be forced to download SCEP definitions ONLY from SCCM distribution Points? I have already a configuration for this in my SCCM
2012 environment, but I don't think it has been correctly configured, because see not-expected error logs in the eventlog.
Freddy

hi Freddy
the following guides should help, the last one use's a UNC which is suitable in cases where no internet access is available

Filename in an alert message

Hi Friends,
I am doing a simple file to idoc scenario.
if mapping error occurs.
the requirement is to trigger an alert which says "A mapping error occurred when processing the file XYZ.txt"
Constraints are:
1. BPM is not used as it is a simple scenario.
2.RFC lookup during mapping is to be avoided since if mapping itself fails then it will be of no use.
Is there a way/work around to get the filename dynamically in the alert message.
Thank you,

Seems to be not possible without a BPM.....at least by using a standard alert procdure
Using a mapping get the FileName .....have both the source and target message as the same.....
map the FileName to some empty node of the structure.
In the mapping logic, one for which you want to check for any exception, do not make use of the node containing the FIleName...let the rest mapping remain as is
Create a Container Variable and Assign the node containing the FileName to it using a Container Operation.
Then raise the Alert.
I have used a similar approach in one of my interfaces.
Regards,
Abhishek.

Alert is not getting displayed in Alert Inbox

Hi,
We have created a BPM with an Alert. The Alert is getting triggered in the PE but we are not able to see the alert in the alert inbox. It is neither being displayed in ALRTDISP transaction.
We have already subcribed that alert.

Hi,
Have to scheduled the background job SXMSALERT_PROCESS_DATA_GET to collect the alert message for further processing?
check this link,

The expression is not being displayed in the alert inbox

Hi,
I have created an expression in 'Long and Short Text' tab present in the ALRTCATDEF transaction screen.
The expression is "test Error in message &SXMS_MSG_GUID&". However if i goto alert inbox, this expression is not getting displayed. I tried putting this expression under Message title, Short text and Long text tabs. But no change in the result.
In the above expression, SXMS_MSG_GUID is a container variable declared in ALRTCATDEF transaction screen.
Same is the situation irrespective of the container variable being used - SXMS_ERROR_CAT etc.,
I appreciate your early response.
Regards
Ganesh

Hi Venkat,
Without using BPM, you can think/try out with triggering an alert from UDF:
/people/bhavesh.kantilal/blog/2006/07/25/triggering-xi-alerts-from-a-user-defined-function
Otherwise, you can use email functionality to notify the error message rather an alert....so that you can customize your output format/or error message required.
Also check out this Michal's blog on ALERT Configuration..

Hope this wull help.

Is there a way of getting a list of upcoming alerts/alarms and their times?

I'd like to get a list of alert times, so that I can see if I have any that will be going off in the middle of the night!
Many months back, I purged those pesky midnight alerts by scrolling through week by week and looking for the all-day events and checking each one. It was a chore.
Now, due an odd synching issue between iCal and an app, I'm a tad concerned that some late night alerts may have been set, or PMs may have changed to AMs, or other oddities introduced. I'd like to scan a list of alerts for the next several months to ensure that none are set to go off during the sleeping hours!
Just browsing events (say week by week) doesn't help me because they could have alerts set for all sorts of different times (or no alerts at all). If there isn't a way of listing the alerts, then I'll have to go through each individual event/to do to check its alert and time-- and there are hundreds!
Hope this makes sense.

Try this in Script Editor - the list of alarms will be in the result pane.
