Windows 7 Imaging with ZCM Agent installed

Has anyone successfully made a Windows 7 image with the ZCM agent already installed on the base image?
I am trying to get the unattended setup to login once to but the workstation prompts for the ZCM login information?
Any suggestions?

Yes
You have to disable the zcm logon prompt, then run a reghack to enable zcm logon as your last step after the first auto logon.

Login intermittently slow with ZCM agent AND Novell client

We continue to struggle with intermittently slow logins in our environment. In testing, we noticed that logins are very fast (10-20 seconds) when only the Novell Client is installed, and very fast (~10 seconds) when only the ZCM agent is installed. However, when they are both installed, logins slow down, sometimes to 1.5 minutes or longer.
We have checked DNS and rDNS, and they are both configured properly. SLP is working properly as demonstrated by the fast logins when only the client is installed. We use LDAP for user lookup, and it also works very fast to resolve user names (~ 1 second).
We are using ZCM 10.3.1, and the client is fully patched as well (both Novell Client 2 and 4.91)
Are there any specific settings (for the ZCM agent or the client itself) that might address this issue?

My apologies, I told you to remove the wrong thing.
I should have said NMAS instead of CASA.
I am just so used to saying CASA when talking about ZCM.
In regards to NMAS, you could simply rename "NWSSO.DLL" as a test.
If NMAS is installed which is tested by the existence of this DLL, then
a certain NMAS call is always made, which in some cases can take a long
time.

Deploy Images with SCCM Client Installed

Hi everyone.
there's one thing I have in mind for a while and haven't got a solution for it
We use SCCM 2012 to build and create our master image with a Task Sequence
one task before the syspreping is "prepare configuration manager client", which from my understanding and from technet - resets all the client's unique configuration.
conclusion - the SCCM Client is installed and "Syspreped" on our base image
in that case, assuming we still use the same SCCM client version, is there a way to save time during the Deploy task sequence?
the "Setup windows and ConfigMgr" step is required and it installs the SCCM Client all over again, even though it is already included in our master image.
thanks
Tamir Levy

First, as noted by Daniel, the Setup Windows and ConfigMgr task does much more than simply installing the ConfigMgr agent. This is clearly indicated by the name of the task (before the "and") "Setup Windows".
The are no true advantages to having the client agent in the image. If you are building your image with ConfigMgr though, it is unavoidable. Yes having it in the image should save time by not having to reinstall the pre-reqs -- most are pretty trivial though
but you may gain a bit although I can't say I've ever timed it.
There is no time savings to be had here, the client agent must be either installed or re-installed during the deployment TS, this is unavoidable. You'll need to look elsewhere if this is a required goal.

Windows 7 with 11g ODBC install confusion...

Hi all,
Ok, I am just a little confused. All I need to do is get ODBC running under Windows 7. I figured this would be easy, but apparently not. I am trying to install Oracle 11g 64 bit on a new Win 7 computer. This is to set up a "typical" end user system and is NOT for development.
I first went to the 11g download page (http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/enterprise-edition/downloads/112010-win64soft-094461.html ) and downloaded the client software (win64_11gR2_client.zip). I unzipped and installed that. I was able to run NetAdmin and edit the TNSNAMES.ora file. However, when I ran the MS ODBC manager - there were no Oracle driver options. I tried this with both the InstantClient and Runtime options.
So I figured I had missed something. I ran the deinstall and then did a system restore. I read the docs in the install and here on the forum and saw references to the instant client installs.
It told me to download the Basic Instant Client and ODBC Instant Client packages from the Oracle Technology Network Instant Client page, so I went to link http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/topics/winx64soft-089540.html and downloaded both the instant client (instantclient-basic-win-x86-64-11.2.0.1.0.zip) and the ODBC module (instantclient-odbc-win-x86-64-11.2.0.1.0.zip)
I unzipped the client-basic first per the odbc docs. No docs, just a readme with no details. And nothing named install. I did see two .exe files (adrci.exe and genezi.exe) but netiher was a clear install package. Nor was there a .msi package. So, in reading the docs, I tried to determine if "deployed" meant unzipped or installed. So I unzipped the instant ODBC files into the instantclient_11_2 folder and ran the ODBC_install. There was no reference to NETADMIN in the startfolder, but there was an ODBC shortcut - which I ran. It showed the ODBC drivers, but when I got to the TNS Service Name and clicked on the "down arrow", all I saw were what appeared to be garbage entries. There was no TNSNAMES.ora file to be found.
Ok, so now I reinstalled the initial download and then tried to add the ODBC stuff to that.... No luck.
I Ran the universal installer and tried to get it to load the ODBC stuff - but there were no .xml files (which is what it apparently wants) to load. And when I tried to install the instant ODBC, the universal installer still didn't appear to see ODBC stuff...
So I can install the first and be able to edit TNSNAMES.ORA. Or install the second and see an ODBC driver - but not configure it because I can't reference a TNSNAMES.ora file. Or do both and just get frustrated because both installs IGNORE the other....
Oh, if I run the NetAdmin and create a TNSNAMES entry - when I test it, it can connect to the server. But I just can't get the ODBC Oracle driver to find that file.....
IAC, what do I need to download (just the minimum oracle 11g) to an end user's win 7 x64 computer so that I can configure the TNSNAMES.ora settings and setup the ODBC connection?
Anyway, I am sure there is an easy answer to this. And I would be happy to mark your response as an answer so you get the credit you deserve for helping me.
And it would be even nicer if there was a little more support about ODBC in the docs that come with both the standard client and the instant client installs.
Thanks,
JustMe

Greg,
RE: Instant client.
1) It did not come with a TNSNAMES.ora file nor was it clear where I would place the one I have so it would work.
2) I did try enter a valid entry, but it would not work (my guess is that I didn't copy the TNSNAMES.ora to the right folder).
RE: Standard install:
1) It installed the TNSNAMES.ora file and apps to manage it. I was even able to test and confirm that it worked. But when I ran the MS ODBC manager, there were no references to the ORACLE drivers, so I couldn't create one to reference the TNSNAMES.ora file I had created.
You have given me a few ideas and I will try some of them (running the standard install option in custom mode, copying the TNSNAMES.ora file to every folder in the instant client install, using just the 32 bit versions, etc.) If any of those work, I will report back. If you have any idea on how to resolve the above issues, I would certainly appreciate it as well.
Thanks,

Can you capture an image with Zenworks already installed?

I remember seeing somewhere on this site where you can install Zenworks on your base imaging machine, then capture that image and deploy the image to other devices, but the key is, you have to do some command on your machine you are capturing an image of to stop some kind of conflict from happening with GUID's, etc.
What is that command please?

Windows Crashes with Bootcamp Driver Instal

Just loaded Windows XP SP2 on my new IMac...partition and Windows load went fine. When I loaded the OSX Windows drivers, per the instructions, after quite a few driver installations, the blue screen of death came up stating Windows was closed due to errors (twenty digit error number...who in the world would know what that means). This happened several times after numerous attempts. Bottom line; everything (Internet, ISight, etc.) in Windows works except no sound...so a lot of drivers where loaded. Downloaded the latests Apple update for windows and latests windows update. Device manager states all audio codecs, etc. are fine...but no audio is detected in audio manager, and no sound. Sound in OSX is fine. I suppose there is a driver download available, but I could not find a sound driver on the OSX install disk for bootcamp...if there is one in the OSX install disk, you'd need to be a cryptologist to figure out which one it is. So, could the OSX disk be bad for the driver install?? If so, would that screw up the Apple for Windows update, which should have loaded the right drivers??

For MacPro 2008, BootCamp (OSX Disk 1)->Drivers->RealTekSetup.exe (Not in a sub folder) is the audio in my case. You should be able to run individual rather than whole BC setup.

Bootcamp (windows compatability with programs pre-installed to mac)

Hi, i've recently got a macbook pro on a grant for university. i have today purchased and uploaded the windows 7 programme on bootcamp. the only problem is that on windows it now appears that i have no access to programs which are installed on the mac part of the computer such as microsoft word, excel, power point etc. is there anyway of accessing them through the windows part of my computer?
thank you for your help!

VMware 3 offers improved performance

Tried many of your suggestions but still can't get past "mozalloc.dll is not a valid windows image" when trying to install and run firefox 6

I have downloaded new copies, deleted everything including install directory, run three different av programs and eliminated anything found. the only other copy of this file in my computer is in the thunderbird directory. Any other suggestions? FF 5 was running ok until I tried the upgrade. Now I can't install any version.

Solved problem. ran a registry cleaner, ran chkdsk and defrag on partition that now has the program installed on it, and on the partition that contains the "'temp" directory. also cleaned out the latter.

Opinions... desktop image with or without ZCM agent?

I'm working on deploying ZCM 10 to my company and was wondering what your opinions are on deployment method for newly ghosted computers (I'm going to use a deploy task for all existing computers). What are the pros/cons of installing the Zen Agent with the ghost image prior to sysprep (we still use ghost for imaging by the way...) versus scripting the install of the agent after the desktop is imaged and entered into the domain?
I've seen some posts in the forums with people having problems with duplicate GUIDS. I imagine that you have to take some precautions if you install the agent prior to sysprepping the image to avoid this kind of problem.
The benefit to manully installing or scripting the install after the computer is entered in the domain is you can easily update the agent with the latest version without needing to modify your image.
Right now our image has the ZFD7 agent pre-installed, but of course that agent is old and has not changed in quite a while. I'm inclined to script the install of the agent instead of including it in the image, but I'd love to hear other opinions or methods.
Thanks!

The bit to install the ZCM agent is quite straight forward utilizing the REG ADD command, this keeps the screen nice and tidy and only presents a small dialog screen without logging into the desktop.
Just put something similar in your batch +other things you wish to do and run that as (one of the) post sysprep actions.
Code:
REM ZCM 10 agent
REG ADD %KEY%\02-160 /VE /D "Installing ZCM agent..." /f
REG ADD %KEY%\02-160 /V 01 /D "C:\Install\ZCM10\PreAgentPkg_Agent.exe -q" /f
REM ADDING A TIMED PAUSE USING DELAY.EXE TO LET THE ZCM AGENT INSTALL AND REBOOT
REG ADD %KEY%\02-161 /VE /D "Wating for ZCM agent install to complete.." /f
REG ADD %KEY%\02-161 /V 01 /D "C:\Install\delayit test.exe 20000" /f
Where did you get the the delay.exe that you are using from? btw, the script says "delayit text.exe" is that a typo? just wondering, thanks.

Agent install hang When Install by using remote desktop

Hi All
My Customer has some workstation,that were placed on branch office,occur some problem and he want to re-install.
When he using remote desktop to login/install, ZCM Agent install service will hang on "novell-rm-md-core". he test some times and get the same result.
But he call another admin install agent locally. agent install successfully.
Who have the same experience about remote install by using remote desktop(mstsc) ??

Windows XP right?
Then you need to install this patch before installing ZCM agent: An application that installs a mirror driver over a Terminal Services session may stop responding on a Windows XP-based computer

Novell client still show red "N", does ZCM Agent work ?

Hi
my customer has some workstation login slow.
User type his username & password and summit it, Novell client show red "N" about 4 ~7 mins...when red "N" disappear, it will login to desktop about 15-20 seconds...
I want to ask...when red "N" icon still show...Whether the Novell client still try to connect to server or not ? and that time, if ZCM Agent (CASA module) still waiting capture username/password or it has capture these infromation to CASA server ??
Because I want to clear if workstation login slow by ZCM agent .

Hi Shaun
Thanks For your great reply.
I find a troubleshooting section in ZCM installation Guide , about "Unable to install NetIdentity from Novell Client 32 on a device that has ZENworks installed", the section was be record from 10.1 to 11.1. The Netidentity has a Install-Check action for checking Whether Local_Machine\Software\zenworks exist or not....but ZCM 10.3 or later use Local_Machine\Software\ZCM, not useing "zenworks", so Netidentity could install evenif ZCM agent installed.
I know ZDM agent has some issue with Netidenty...but I do know why ZCM installation still record it....even ZCM11.1 installation Guide. Could you help me clear whether Netidentity agent will effect ZCM Agent or not ?? Because I could not find any document that could provide any message it will effect "ZCM" function
thanks!!

UCCE 7.5.8 with CAD Agents sitting in India

Hi all,
I've got a scenario and am looking for some inputs.
I've got a centralized CUCM 7.1.3 with UCCE 7.5.8 and CAD 7.5.8. Today I only phones at our India office and all is working perfectly fine with no issues. I am looking into having CAD agents sitting at this office connecting UCCE environment back in California. I've done some testings with CAD agent installed in India and so far all is looking good. It takes about 60-80 seconds from the CAD login screen to completely login to CAD.My concern is the round-trip delay between Ca and India, it's about 290-300ms round-trip.
Questions:
Has anyone successfully deployed this type of scenario ? please share your experience !!!
Has anyone used WAAS to help accelerate CAD login process ?
Thanks in advance !!! and I appreciate any inputs/suggestions
D.

[email protected] you know if CAD supervisor can monitor agent using CTIOS desktop ?
Here is your answer I hope it is useful for you .
UCCE 8.5 SRND page 198
Support for Mix of CAD and CTI OS Agents on the Same PG
Unified CCE deployments can support a mix of CAD and CTI OS agents on the same PG. If a mix is deployed, the sizing limitations of CAD apply.
Note that Cisco Supervisor Desktop (CSD) can monitor only CAD agents, and the CTI OS supervisor application can monitor only CTI OS agents.
Cisco Agent Desktop, Supervisor Desktop, and CTI OS cannot co-exist with Cisco CallManager PG; the configuration of agents and supervisors must be kept separate. Cisco Supervisor Desktop cannot be used to monitor a CTI OS agent desktop, nor can a CTI OS supervisor monitor a Cisco Agent Desktop agent.

ISe with NAC agent pop up and Posture waiting

Hi,
I have ISE running ver 1.1.1.268. We limited access certain services before authuenticate with ACL-DEFAULT(given below) as per the Trustsec desgin guide.
Now the issue is that when you have ACL-DEFAULT on the port NAC agent doest not pop-up and doest not start the posture part and saying waiting for Posture validation. When the ACL-DEFAULT removed from the access port NAC agent popup and do the posture validation.
However we do not want user to get access to network before the authorization and that is the reason we use the ACL-DEFAULT.
Please can someone advise me how to achieve the above both task. Why the NAC agent does not popup and do the posture when ACL-DEFAULT there in the switch.
Here is what I have configured on ACL-DEFAULT.
ip access-list extended ACL-DEFAULT
remark DHCP
permit udp any eq bootpc any eq bootps
remark DNS
permit udp any any eq domain
permit tcp any any eq domain
permit udp any any eq 389
permit tcp any any eq 135
permit tcp any any eq 445
permit udp any any eq 445
permit tcp any any range 135 139
permit tcp any any eq 389
permit tcp any any eq 3268
permit icmp any any
remark PXE / TFTP
permit udp any any eq tftp
permit tcp any host 172.xx.xx.xx eq 8443 (ISE-Pri)
permit tcp any host 172.xx.xx.xx eq 8443 (ISE-Sec)
remark Drop all the rest
deny ip any any log
Appreciate if someone can give a solid resolution and explanation to this.

Hi Saurav,
We have already allowed those ports with another acl (ACL-POSTURE-REDIRECT). Our issue is not with the web nac agent.
The issue is with NAC agent installed on corperate PCs connecting via wired port. With the ACL-DEFAULT it does not pop-up and does not do the posturing, however once we removed the ACL-DEFAULT from the access port, everything works fine.
Since we do not want any user to access unwanted services before authorization we add this ACL on the access-port and as per the trustsec desgin this has to be there if you want to have ISE with closed mode.
thanks
