SHOW COUNT equivalent in sccm 2012 AND right click tool to add PCs to COLLECTION

In sms 2003 there was a right click tool that allowed you to get the count of the collection in question. It generated total number or resources, total number of clients and total number of non-onsolete clients in the collection. I know there
is a way to at least get the clients in the specific collection vs. total resources for 2012 collections, but I'll be darned if I can find it. I found it once months ago and it seemed that it was in a report, but it has been several months and I can't
find it. Can someone please help me? I heard there was a right click tool, but I have tried 3 different versions of right click tools for 2012 and they are hit and miss at best and none of them included this feature.
Additionally, I would like to find out if there is a way to add a list of miscellaneous pcs to a collection in one fell swoop. I have a tool in 2003 that allows me to do that (sms tools/add pcs to this collection), but I can't find one in 2012 that
works correctly. I have done the add resource option, but if the machines are spread far and wide within all systems, for instance, then that makes it take almost as long as adding individually with a direct rule. Thanks for any help you can provide
on these two issues.

I just wanted to let you know that Rick Houchins' right click tools do have a utility that lets you add devices to a collection successfully (so it's basically a hodge podge here with right click tools, some work better in some utility collections and some
work better in others, but you have to choose one set of right click tool utilities unless you have the admin console installed on multiple machines, not an elegant solution, but . . .).
I still really need to figure a way to get the SHOW COUNT functionality back, though. If anyone has any information on how to compensate for that I would really appreciate it. I had found a workaround prior to SP1, but can't seem to get it to
work anymore. thanks. : )

Untrusted forest and right click tools

I just installed right click tools and it's really a great tool. We manage clients in untrusted ad forest and right click tools doesn't work for them because of the authentication problems. Does anyone know is there something that can be done to bypass
this limitation?

Remember, the right-click tools are simply scripts that run in the context of the current user logged into the console and connect directly to the clients to perform their work. They are not part of ConfigMgr and do not use the ConfigMgr infrastructure
to communicate (because the ConfigMgr infrastructure never ever connects to client agents). Thus, every-thing the right-click tools do is subject to normal restrictions and for connecting to a remote system including authentication and authorization. And thus,
the account you are using must have the proper privileges and permissions on the target client system.

Database instance for SCCM 2012 and WSUS on a single primary site server

I am going to install SCCM 2012 and its SQL database on a single physical server. This is going to be a single primary site server. The default SQL instance will be dedicated to SCCM 2012 with no other named instances to be added on the SQL server down
the road.
During the WSUS server role installation, there is the Database Options page asking for using (1) Windows Internal Database, (2) existing db server on this computer, or (3) an external db server.
Since SCCM 2012 doesn't share db instance with others, how should I handle the WSUS db that's going to be hosted on the same SCCM/SQL physical server? Do I really need to create a separate SQL instance just for the WSUS db?
Thanks and regards.

Even though you can do it, it is the best practice to have SCCM 2012 and WSUS installed on separate instances.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh692394
When the Configuration Manager and WSUS databases use the same SQL Server and share the same instance of SQL Server, you cannot easily determine the resource usage between the two applications. When you use a different SQL Server instance
for Configuration Manager and WSUS, it is easier to troubleshoot and diagnose resource usage issues that might occur for each application.

SCCM 2012 and Reverbed appliances

There is a requirement to have the Riverbed WAN acceleration appliances installed instead of Distribution Points.
For the fresh setup of SCCM 2012 that we are working at the moment. The initial proposal was with one Primary Site Server and number of distribution points
however client wants to go with the Reverbed appliances and not to use distribution points.
Would like to know and get the confirmation from Microsoft that if Reverbed appliances are supported fully with SCCM 2012 and if any recommendations on this.
Thanks.
Gurudatt

Hi,
If you want an offical answer from Microsoft if it is supported and recommended you should really open a support case or perhaps an advisory case with Microsoft Support. You will not get an offical statement here and for Microsoft to fully support it would
mean that they would have tested it as well.
There are some information regarding that it will work on riverbeds page

SCCM 2012 and collection settings

Hi all,
I am migrating SCCM 2007 to SCCM 2012 SP1 CU3.
All my 1200 collections are migrated to SCCM 2012 and the incremental option is enabled on most of my collections (about 1100).
Now I found out that my collections are updating very very slow.....
I read an article that best practice is to enable a maximum of 200 collections with the incremental option.
So i ran a powershell script to disable this option on my collections....
Now it seems that collection updates are faster again...
Do I need to disable the incremental option on all collections and enable the schedule full update eg. very 30 minutes ?
I hope someone could share his experience with this....

I ran this test this weekend since it has been a while since I have do this. Short version, yes I’m getting confused between CM07 and CM12. CM07 this work perfectly for User and PCs. In CM12 this only work perfectly for Users. If you want
to make this work for PC you need to do the following.
PC
Add the PC to the Security Group.
Wait of the Security group to replicate to the PC’s local DCS.
Reboot the PCs
Wait for the Discovery Data(DD) collection Cycle to occur, (default is every 7 days), However I recommend making this daily and in some cases hourly.
Once the DD data is in the CM12 db. You need to wait for the Collection to update (default is every 7 days)
Then you need to wait for the PC to retrieve it’s Machine policies. (~1 hour)
User:
Add the User to the Security Group.
Wait of the Security group to replicate to the PC’s local DCS.
Logon to the PC. With newer OS , just unlocking the PC will
do the trick.
Then you need to wait for the User Polices to retrieved.(~1 hour)

Explorer.exe slow and right clicking slow

Hi all,
I have Win 2012 with Terminal Server running and another Win 2012 DC.
In a TS session explorer.exe takes about 20 seconds to open and the same to right click and right click on desktop has similar lag..
When on the server i.e. not in a TS session explorer.exe has no delay.
This is on a local network with GB LAN.
All other activity in the TS sessions are very fast including databases etc.
I have used procmon and it displays many "name not found" entries however I'm not really sure how to interpret and there doesn't seem to be any huge time delays when set to include explorer.exe and is not success.
Event Viewer shows no events that I could associate with this slow behavior
Any ideas on troubleshooting?
Thanks

1. Login with other user ID and check,
2. If possible, Recreate user profile.
Also cross verify below checklists.
1. Check whether event ID : 2011 and 2012 event ID's are registering in event viewer.
2. Check IRPStack size limit, If all users are accessing at sametime, you may face this issue, That time you need to set correct IRPStack
3. Issue may be with high Handle count,
4. Identify the handle count which is more than 5000 and perform according to application.

Manjunath Sullad

Lately when I try to right click it opens a new tab with recent searchs.I have to go back to the tab and right click again to get the options. How do i fix it?

When I try to right click now instead of getting the menu it goes into a new tab showing recent searches.I have to go back and right click again to get the menu and do what I wanted in the first place.Is there a way to fix this.This is really irritating.I like firefox but I'm ready to go back to Chrome. Thanks for any help.

You're right-clicking a link? I can't think of any setting that opens a blank tab when you right-click in a page. It's also strange that it would occur on the first click but not on the second click.
Does this affect all sites?
Are you expecting Firefox's context menu or the site's context menu?
One thing that comes to mind is overriding the site's own right-click handler by disabling scripts from capturing the right click. This is set under
orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Content
To the right of "Enable JavaScript" is a button to access "Advanced" options. If it's checked, uncheck the box for "Disable or replace context menus".

How do I delete a song from my Itunes library? I follow the instructions and right click on the song and click delete from the drop down menu but, then it asks me if I am sure I want to hide this song in Iclouds? I dont even know what Iclouds is?!?! HELP!

How do I delete a song from my Itunes music library? I follow the instructions and right click on the song and then select "delete" as specified and my info claims at that point it will ask if I want to send this song to my trash bin, but, instead, when I try to delete the song, I get another window asking "are you sure you want to hide this song in iCloud? I don't even know what iCloud is?!?!? I don't want iCloud and just want to get rid of old songs!!! HELP ME!!!

Short answer:
Click Hide Song(s), it is what you wanted to do...
Long answer:
iTunes in the Cloud is a feature of your iTunes store account that allows you to redownload or stream your past purchases. When you delete a purchased track that is downloaded to your computer (like the first one shown here) you are asked if you also want to hide the song from iCloud. This would remove it from the computer and also stop it showing up with the iCloud symbol as the other tracks from that album (which are not downloaded) do.
If a track shows with the cloud symbol you can play (stream) it by double-clicking the title, or click the cloud symbol to download a local copy to your library. If you try to delete one of these tracks you get a slightly different message confirming that you want to hide the track. Clicking hide will remove the listing from the library and any other device that shows your past purchases.
Should you want to retrieve any item hidden in this way at a later date use Store > View My Account > iTunes in the Cloud > Hidden Purchases > Manage.
To hide all your previous purchases that are not downloaded to your computer use Edit > Preferences > Store and untick Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases.

SCCM Right Click tools , cannot connect to the WMI namespace

Hi All,
I think you all know the right click tools for SCCM, there's a strange problem at my SCCM environment, when I use right click tool to push user policy it said "cannot connect to the WMI namespace on PC01.." , but other
policy like machine it works fine. If I manually initiate from PC01 it works also.
Already uninstall and install the right click tools, restart the server, but still no luck, any ideas ?
Please remember to click “Mark as Answer” on the post that helps you, and to click “Unmark as Answer” if a marked post does not actually answer your question. This can be beneficial to other community members reading the thread.

Remote user policy request; I don't use the right-click tools, so I don't know what the code inside looks like. But from past experience, getting the remote user policy refresh to work right was tricky.
First question though: do you actually need to remote user policy refresh? Do you currently deploy advertisements to collections, where the collection membership is either a bunch of usernames, or is a single entry of a domain usergroup? If you
don't currently deploy to users or users in a usergroup, you really don't need to trigger a remote user policy refresh. There's nothing to find anyway, from the client to the management point.
If you do deploy to users or users in a usergroup; you might want to get a copy of Roger Zanders' Client Center, and see if that remote trigger for user policy works.

Right Click tools for SCCM 2007 issue

We have SCCM 2007 R2 with Right click tools installed (I know this is not a direct SCCM query but linked to it and thought I might try my luck here)
I use the "ConfigMgr Collection Tools - Add Systems to a collection" option within Right click tools a lot
However in the last few days it keeps failing a lot with the following error message
Line:68
Char: 5
Error: Object required: 'objDialogWindow.document.body'
The Addcoll.hta looks like the following
Line 68: LineobjDialogWindow.document.body.style.fontFamily = "Helvetica"
Line 69: objDialogWindow.document.body.style.fontSize = "11pt"
Line 70: objDialogWindow.document.writeln "<html><body>Adding PCs to " & collName.Value & " </body></html>"
Line 71: objDialogWindow.document.title = "Please wait."
Line 72: objDialogWindow.document.body.style.backgroundColor = "dodgerblue"
Line 73: objDialogWindow.document.body.style.borderStyle = "none"
Line 74: objDialogWindow.document.body.style.marginTop = 15
Line 75: AddToCollection ComputerList.value, CollID.value, ss.Value, objDialogWindow
Line 76: objDialogWindow.Close()
Line 77: self.ResizeTo 400,550
Has anyone had this issue and if so how have you resolved it?

You need to contact the author of the tool and get them to help out. This is not a CM07 issue.
However having said that it look like you are having a problem with the font.

Install right click tool and client troubleshooting tools.

Hi Everyone,
I need some information, I heave 2012 native mode environment with MacAfee firewall. But I need to install rite click tool and client troubleshoot tools. It is possible or
not, if yes Please give me the detailed Information.
Thanks in advance.

The fact that you're running ConfigMgr 2012 in HTTPS and have a McAfee firewall running, has nothing to do with the installation of right-click tools. If you have the permissions to install the right-click tools on a device, with the ConfigMgr console, you're
good to go.
