What is the security context when deploying application using SCCM 2012?

As far as i know when using Group Policy the software is always installed under SYSTEM security context. However i cannot find any information related to SCCM 2012 (and deploying applications) security context.
Also is there a difference in doing "Install for User" or "Install for Device/System"?
Thanks

Thanks. Just to confirm that if you use Group Policy and you Publish the msi for user when the user install it from Add/Remove Programs it is still going to be executed in SYSTEM security context?
And while we are on this topic - is the above (about the security context in SCCM 2012) written anywhere in some official MS web page?
Not sure about the context for Intellimirror, but for ConfigMgr it's as Ronnie and Torsten stated. This may be documented somewhere, not sure. Not everything is documented though -- in fact, I'd say less than 25% (probably less than 10%) of everything
to be known about ConfigMgr is officially documented. Note that this is the same for any product -- there simply are far too many permutations and possibilities to document them all.

    That doesn't really help.
    Where does AlwaysFilter come from? Is it part of the core API, or a 3rd party library? If the latter, which one? And in what do the API docs for this class not answer your question?

  • Deploying Applications with SCCM 2012 R2 to Server 2008 R2 RDS servers

    I'm having some trouble finding some concrete information from Microsoft regarding the deployment of applications to RDS servers using SCCM 2012 R2. There seems to be a lot of conjecture, old information and old wives tales floating around and I was hoping
    I could get some information confirmed!
    1. MSI installs automatically switch to install mode on RDS servers? 
    I've seen this mentioned a few times. I've also seen it mentioned that it is only true when running the MSI from the console session manually (i.e clicking the MSI file) not running as SYSTEM as SCCM would usually do. Can someone confirm if they do this
    themselves or not?
    2. Users still logged in when deploying applications? 
    Is it possible to deploy an application while users are still logged in? Is this only related to going into 'install' mode and taking the chance that a user will do something that will cause issues? Or is it known to cause issues?
    I guess those are the main ones, I'm experienced in SCCM but not with deploying to RDS servers, I cant seem to find any straight answers!
    Anyway, thanks in advance!

    I've never had large enough RDS environment to use SCCM for app push, but from my experience in managing 2012/R2 RDS and local installs, I never bother with switching to install mode anymore and it works fine.  Now if you're skeptical, you can
    easily build this into a script that runs as a pre-req to your .MSI as part of the software package in SCCM so it's not a big deal.
    As for installing apps while users are logged in, shouldn't be a problem if you're installing a new app., if however you're updating an existing application or uninstalling it, then it may be best to drain that RDS host first of all user sessions then do
    the work just to be safe.  this also helps avoid reboots.

  • Adobe Creative Cloud Enterprise Deployment Issues using SCCM 2012 R2

    Hi,
    I have been trying to deploy Adobe Creative Cloud Enterprise to Windows 8.1 machines that are identical, using SCCM 2012 R2.
    The Adobe package seems fine, because it seems to deploy successfully to some machines. And SCCM 2012 R2 has been configured correctly, as I can deploy other software using it, and again, it deploys Adobe CC successfully to some of the machines.
    I have tried comparing the package that is downloaded on the test machine/client machine, with the original package on the distribution point, using Beyond Compare, and there are no differences.
    I have contacted Adobe Enterprise Support, and they asked me to send to them log files from Event Viewer, the msi installer, and other Adobe logs, from the machine that failed the deployment. However, after Adobe studying them, they told me that they could not identify any problems... Strange, because I could have sworn that I saw error 1603 pop up over 20 times on different machines indicating that the 'Set-up.dat' file had a problem with it.
    After all the testing on over 20 identical machines (same hardware/same software), using different configurations on SCCM 2012 R2 and the client machines, I still can't seem to have a reliable solution to deploying Adobe CC.
    The fact that it deploys successfully on one machine and fails on another, or sometimes deploy to two machines and fail on another (simultaneously), is something that I don't understand.
    Another thing is that, if I retry the deployment 10-15 times after it failed the first time, it might go through...
    Adobe Enterprise Support asked me if they could remote into a machine that failed the deployment to have a look at it and I agreed to that option, but it seems like my issue has been ignored because they never got back to me.
    Has anyone had this kind of problem or anything similar before?
    I need to be able to deploy this remotely to 100+ machines. So installing manually is not an option.
    Any help is appreciated.
    This was posted in the wrong section a few days ago. I'm hoping I can get some help here.
    Case Number: 1862659812
    UPDATE: I spoke to Adobe Customer Support and after 1.5 hours on the phone with a remote session going on, problem was still not solved or identified. Additional log files have been sent and now I'm waiting for a call back.

    Hi Robert,
    We seem to be having a very similar issue.  Our installs would randomly fail with error code 1603 and an error message about a fault in Set-up.dat.  Failure rate was near 95% on our 900 machines.  Adobe Support and Karl having been looking into our issues but so far no solution has been found.
    Having done a lot of investigating we've managed to deploy our package using a schedule task running as a domain admin.  This is a nasty solution and we don't intend on using this permanently, but we needed to get the package out.
    Are you seeing any of the following:

  • What is the best way to deploy application that uses web services?

    Hi all,
    I'm having some problems figuring out the best way to deploy our app now that we've switched over to using web services.
    I'm fairly new to Java and web services. From what I understand, JNLP and WebStart are methods to deploy Java clients to users and not for creating war files and the like.
    Here's a little background:
    We have a large PowerBuilder/Oracle application. The db consists of over 500 tables and the client consists of several thousand PB components. A user creates "transactions" which contain a series of "sub-transactions" within. Most of the data is collected and stored locally in the client in a series of datastores. When the "finalize" happens, the records are validated and sent to the database.
    We are in the process of moving each of the subtransactions (currently in the PB client) into subPROCESSES on a java project. We are using the JAX-WS framework to develop the web services in Netbeans. These web services aren't much more than remote xml as the messaging technology. For writing data back to the database, we are using the Java Persistence API to function outside of an EJB container but will shortly be migrating to the Glassfish application server to use several of the EJB container frameworks including the EntityManager.
    We haven't attempted any type of deployment and are unsure of where to start. Any suggestions would be so helpful and appreciated!
    Thanks!

It is for launching rich client GUI based (AWT, Swing, SWT..) applications onto the end-user's desktop.
    There are some parts of JWS that might seem peripherally useful to the installation of a web-app., but it is really not a 'good fit'.

    Hi.
    Thanks for the additional info.
    I found 2 similar issues with similar stack traces for WLS 6.1 sp2. One of the issues we could not reproduce, and in the
    end the customer reinstalled WLS and the problem went away. The other issue was found internally and is not currently
    active. I'm not 100% sure your situation is identical to one of these.
    Therefor I suggest the following course of action:
    1. Since this is an intermittant problem try reinstalling WLS. If that doesn't help then...
    2. open a case with support. It may not be a major issue, but we need to be sure of this.
    Hope this helps,
    Michael

  • What are the database resources when collecting stats using dbms_stats

    Hello,
    We have tables that contain stale stats and would want to collect stats using dbms_stats with estiamte of 30%. What are the database resources that would be consummed when dbms_stats is used on a table? Also, would the table be locked during dbms_stats? Thank you.

    1) I'm not sure what resources you're talking about. Obviously, gathering statistics requires I/O since you've got to read lots of data from the table. It requires CPU particularly if you are gathering histograms. It requires RAM to the extent that you'll be doing sorts in PGA and to the extent that you'll be putting blocks in the buffer cache (and thus causing other blocks to age out), etc. Depending on whether you immediately invalidate query plans, you may force other sessions to start doing a lot more hard parsing as well.
    2) You cannot do DDL on a table while you are gathering statistics, but you can do DML. You would generally not want to gather statistics while an application is active.

  • How do you reset the security questions when you havent used a credit card to make any purchases, only the gift cards. Apple support will not help me even though i know my account and apple id and password?

    Have a new computer and now cannot access itunes without knowing the answers to the security questions. Apple support cannot reset as we have never used a credit card when purchasing prior, have only used gift cards. Can provide apple id and password and all other account details but still no help. Have we to open a new3 account and start again, this means losing a lot of credit on the existing account?!

    I have the same problem. I didn't set a rescue email for some reason. To find out weather you hav a rescue password: Go to appleid.apple.com, sign in, go to manage account and then password and security if you do there will be a link below telling you that you can send an email to it. If not the link won't be there. Hope this helps.

  • How to Deploy exe application using SCCM 2012 SP1

    Hi,
    While creating deployment type wizard (for exe application deployment) , i am not able to see the "Windows Installer (native)" option in the drop down menu. Kindly refer snapshot. If i select "script installer" , deployment is not working.
    I am taking it for adobe reader 9.1 exe application. Can anyone please suggest which option should i take.
    Regards
    Manish

    I believe the thinking was that most people wrap their .exe in an .msi anyway, so that would have been way more common.
    Really?
    That seems bizarre to me. I guess, if this thinking occurred, it might have been based on the idea that lots of people are using Group Policy Software Installation (Intellimirror), since GPSI does a less-horrible job when you use MSI.
    But, a lot of software I've seen, uses a setup.exe bootstrapper to launch one or more MSI's.
    So, MSI wraps EXE wraps MSI would be the outcome of this thinking.
    Which is why I chose the word... bizarre.

  • Superseded error 0x87D00213 (-2016411117) when deploying App on SCCM 2012 R2

    I've setup an application deployment that requires install, but I'm seeing this error along with "Failed to uninstall superseded deployment type." The app is suppose to uninstall an older version then install a new version. It works fine on two
    other machines.
    BTW - I get this error as soon as I hit Summarize button. I also looked at AppEnforce.log, but it hasn't been updated in over an hour.

    Okay, I spoke too soon. I just watched it uninstall old app and install new one.
    I would still like to know why it's throwing that error message?
    Also, if some users don't have the rights to install this app is there a way I can use a different account for the uninstall and install?

  • Deploy Internet explorer 11 with latest updates using SCCM 2012

    Hello,
    I'd like deploy IE11 with the latest updates included. The reason is that I want the IE 11 enterprise mode to be available as soon as IE11 gets installed.
    I don't want to wait an update scan cycle to trigger the installation of the updates.
    What is the best way to achieve that using SCCM 2012 ?
    Regards,
    Michel

    Hi,
    You have to capture the installation package with latest update by using IEAK 11 on the computer which has the IE11 with this feature.
    GP to enable this feature:
    Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Internet Explorer\Let users turn on and use Enterprise Mode from the Tools menu
    This is only for Windows 7 computer.
    As I mentioned above, for Windows 8.1, we can only deploy Windows 8.1 update 1 to add this feature to IE11, since there is no separated update can be installed for IE11 on Windows 8.1 to implement this.
    Windows 8.1

  • What is the best way to deploy/update custom security realm classes to WLS 6.0?

    From the WLS 6.0 console, I see that I can specify the Java class that
    implements my custom security realm but I am wondering what is the best way
    to deploy/update this code. I don't see a way to do this from the console.
    Does this mean that I have to manually copy the class files over that
    implement my custom security realm?

    Thanks Danut,
    A jar file seems to be a good way to package it up but it sounds like it
    still needs to be manually copied to each Weblogic server install directory
    post-installation and whenever it is updated. I thought it would be nice to
    be able to deploy/update the custom security realm by uploading it through
    the Console just as you can with web applications and EJBs.

    You have to have your Custom Realm class in the class path. I usually havea

  • What are the security implications of having JAVA running on my Mac Book Pro?

    What are the security implications of having JAVA running on my Mac Book Pro?

    Java on the Web (not to be confused with JavaScript, to which it's not related, despite the similarity of the names) is a weak point in the security of any system. Java is, among other things, a platform for running complex applications in a web page, on the client. That was always a bad idea, and Java's developers have proven themselves incapable of implementing it without also creating a portal for malware to enter. Past Java exploits are the closest thing there has ever been to a Windows-style virus affecting OS X. Merely loading a page with malicious Java content could be harmful.
    Fortunately, client-side Java on the Web is obsolete and mostly extinct. Only a few outmoded sites still use it. Try to hasten the process of extinction by avoiding those sites, if you have a choice. Forget about playing games or other non-essential uses of Java.
    Java is not included in OS X 10.7 and later. Discrete Java installers are distributed by Apple and by Oracle (the developer of Java.) Don't use either one unless you need it. Most people don't. If Java is installed, disable it — not JavaScript — in your browsers.
    Regardless of version, experience has shown that Java on the Web can't be trusted. If you must use a Java applet for a task on a specific site, enable Java only for that site in Safari. Never enable Java for a public website that carries third-party advertising. Use it only on well-known, login-protected, secure websites without ads. In Safari 6 or later, you'll see a lock icon in the address bar with the abbreviation "https" when visiting a secure site.

  • What are the security risks for opening port 80 on workstations?

    Hello all,
    in our environment, there is an application which open port 80 on workstations when installed, but it is not allowed on preimeter FW
    could you please advise what are the security risks for leaving port 80 opened on the workstations? or it is considered secure unless it is not allowed on the preimeter FW?
    thanks alot & regards

    Hi R.Naguib.
    The 80 port is open by default through the firewall on Windows system, it is used by a http protocol by a browser.
    As for the network or hardware Firewall settings, I suggest to turn to the network administrator for details.
    Regards
