Good morning,

We have an SCCM 2012 SP2 that we use heavily to deploy Windows 7 image to our new computer.  For some reasons, SCCM 2012 won't install Office 2013.  It finish applying Windows 7 image, and after it install Configuration Manger client, it reboot to windows 7 logon screen and won't install Office 2013.  

I have try many different instruction that I found on Google to create Office 2013 package for task sequence, but still SCCM task sequence won't install Office 2013.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

Windows 7 to Windows 10 Migration with change from Legacy Bios to UEFI

Hi all, we are looking to migrate from Windows 7 Enterprise x86 to Windows 10 Enterprise x64 using SCCM 2012 R2+ MDT.

All our Windows 7 machines are currently running legacy bios.

As part of this migration we want to migrate from legacy bios to UEFI (the majority of our models will support E)and install Windows 10 Enterprise 64bit. Can this be done via an SCCM task sequence advertised to the existing Win7 OS?

 I've created a Win10  OSD task sequence that kicks off on a machine running Windows 7 32bit and performs USMT, BIOS updates (if required). The machine then restarts to WinPE and changes BIOS mode to UEFI via cctk.exe (secureboot etc), formats the disk with required UEFI partitions and then applies the  Windows 10 iamge and so on.

What seems to happen is that the bios change to UEFI via cctk works, but SCCM doesnt detect the BIOS change and hence doesnt create the correct UEFI partitions in the format disk step.

The machine appears to need another restart in order to boot as UEFIUEFI - however as its already running in WinPE a reboot just brings the machine back to the initial WinPE screen and the build exits. Is there any way to achieve a reboot from WinPE and continue the task sequence?

If I remove the _SMSTSBootUEFI=True check from the Format Disk step, the sequence creates the UEFI partitions except for the EFI partition. Osddiskpart.exe seems to ignore this EFI partition possibly because it hasnt detected its running in UEFI.

Is there any way of doing what I describe above? We dont want to be visiting every machine to change the BIOS over to UEFI and then kick off a Windows 10 task sequence to perform the builds as we have thousands of machines.

I'd appreciate any feedback, thoughts and/or experience you may have around how to automate a Win7x86 to Win10x64 AND legacy to UEFI bios migration without having to visit machines to peform the UEFI conversion etc.

USMT to State Migration Point - OSD - SCCM 2012

Hi Guys,

I'm having an issue with OSD with USMT where for some reason, the user profiles aren't copied back to the new machine once it's been refreshed.  I create the standard Task Sequence and elect to use USMT, saving data to the State Migration Point.  I run the Task Sequence to capture the user data (this works fine, and I can see the data being stored on the SCCM server), then run through the process of install the new OS.  Once this is done and I log in, there's no user data there.

I'm not too sure which logs to be looking at to find out why it's not working.  I can barely find anything online related to USMT to State Migration Points.

Install Updates fails - 0x80244010

CM 2012 R2 Cu2. Windows 7 x64 SP1 captured image a year ago.

The problem is, that during OSD the update step fails.

Here is what I´ve already tried;

- To set 4-5 of them in a row will not solve anything.
- newest WUA agent installing before this
- new DP is installed to the same LAN, all content distributed (ensured with netstat it´s connected to right DP)
- Googled a lot ;)

...just thinking, what are the chances the image is corrupted?

The task sequence execution engine failed executing the action (Install Software Updates part 1) in the group (State Restore) with the error code 2149859344

I am trying to deploy Windows 7 through MDT task sequence. MDT is integrated in SCCM. My customsettings.ini file looks like this:

[Settings]
Priority=Default
Properties=MyCustomProperty

[Default]
OSInstall=Y
SkipCapture=YES
SkipAdminPassword=NO
SkipProductKey=YES
SkipLocaleSelection=YES
KeyboardLocale=0809:00000809
UserLocale=en-GB
UILanguage=en-US
SkipTimeZone=YES
TimeZoneName=GMT Standard Time

After installation of Windows 7 the region and language settings is set to en-US.

For some reason it is ignoring customsettings.ini . Not sure where to look for.

Downloading W7 .wim files extreemly slow

I'm running 2012 R2 SP1.

I've changed my OSD images to download and run locally.

This seem to work for a couple of tests but now its all slowed down to a crawl.

The 64 bit wim files stops at 12% and the 32 bit file takes about an hour to download.

The other packages take a long time too.

Can't see any obvious  problem on my PXE DP. Disabling the real time scan makes no difference.

Any thoughts or comments would be great.

I have identifie an issue in testing in-pace upgrades from Win7 Enterprise and Win8.1 Enterprise to Win10 Enterprise, driven by SCCM 2012 R2 SP1 Task Sequences, using the content from the following locations: 

  • https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/mt426642%28v=vs.85%29.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396
  • http://blogs.technet.com/b/configmgrteam/archive/2015/06/16/revised-content-for-the-win10-in-place-upgrade-via-task-sequence-for-configmgr.aspx

The upgrade works in that I end up with Windows 10, however I've come up against an issue with regional / keyboard settings being reset to en-US. This means keyboard mappings etc are lost - which is a problem for most users.

Pre-upgrade these look like:

I have 2 Intel network drivers that don't appear to want to install in OSD.

First is Intel(R) 82577LM Gigabit Network Connection. It always installs the Intel(R) 82579LM Gigabit Network Connection into drivers which does not work.

The second one is same problem with a more recent model Intel(R) Ethernet Connection (3) I218-LM. I can only get the Intel(R) Ethernet Connection (3) I217-LM to install.

Any suggestions?

Dear All,

Please help to look at this problem.

I am using SCCM 2012 to deploy OS.

The server is installed with MDT and I used that to create a boot image, every step is following a guide line. (Actually I am not the one who create the OSD thing on this server).

The server has a device collection of "Deploy Win 7" which new PC will be fall into this group for OS deployment.

Customised TS was used due to client request.

The laptop was abale to boot into the TS environment, after the Format and Partition task was done, and going into Use Toolkit Package task, a prompt box showed up and said there was an error with 80070002.

I have search over the web and found there might be network account or folder permission problem, I have tried to share the SMSPKG$ in IIS to everyone for read permission but still does not work.

I looked at the smsts.log, found that there was an error msg as follow in every task.

<![LOG[(__hrMethodRetVal == ((HRESULT)0L)) || (bFailIfMissing == false), HRESULT=80070002 (e:\NTS_SCCM_RELEASE\sms\common\inc\ccmxml.h,582)]LOG]!>

Please help to give an idea what is going on and probably show me the right direction.

Best Regards

Question on driver database functionality

December 1, 2015, 12:54 pm

I'm in the process of a migration from CM 2007 to 2012 R2 SP1, I have almost everything migrated over with the exception of the drivers. Since our 2007 driver environment was a mess, I feel it's best not to migrate it over, but to start fresh.  Since we were cutting our teeth with 2007 and were pushed to get it up and running ASAP, in hindsight we may have taken some less than desirable approaches to driver management. 

I've recently read someone refer to the driver management as a virtual bees nest, I can't say that I disagree that theory. As with any bees nest, any time you approach one, the potential to get stung in there.  I also understand that there's several different approaches to this same problem.

Knowing what I know now, we're going to take the approach of creating a package for each model and use WMI to filter out the application of those, whether it be from typical driver package, or standard package.

In my research, I've stumbled across an intriguing post yesterday, where the author takes the approach where each driver is created as a standard package instead of a driver package, and then WMI queries are added to each step to apply.

http://www.windows-noob.com/forums/topic/10856-sccm-2012-osd-apply-driver-packages-without-importing-them-to-the-database/

Aside from not being able to disable/enable drivers directly from the Config Manager console, send them to them to boot images, my question isdoes this route of not adding drivers to the driver database provide any additional downside that I need to consider before deciding on a path to take.

Thanks in advance.

After Upgrading to SCCM 2012 R2 SP1 CU2 "There are no task sequences available for this computer"

I've noticed a number of annoying things since upgrading to SCCM 2012 R2 SP1 CU2.

1) I cannot deploy an OSD Task Sequence to All Desktop & Server Clients any longer.  

2) I used to be able to deploy each of my standard task sequences to "All Unknown Computers" and "All Desktops and Servers" and no matter what computer, new or reimaged, I could PXE it.  I can't do that now.  I'm finding computers popping up left and right where I try to PXE them and I get "There are no task sequences available for this computer". 

What can I do to get around the two listed annoyances since upgrading?

Not a happy camper, but i'm sure my logic is what's lacking.  I just literally want to be able to PXE ANY computer in my environment and get my standard list of PXE-based operating system deployment task sequences.  I used to be able to do that by deploying them to both All unknown computers and all desktops and server. 

Any help is greatly appreciated, thank you in advance!

In my company environment, during OSD installing, random application will stop after it is successfully installed. I ran taskmgr and found "smsappinstall" processes was still running, but the installation has been done (setup and msiexec has been closed, why did it not close). so I force close this processes , then OSD can continue.

After the OSD, I checked the software, the software was installed.

So how to fix this problem? Thanks in advance!

OSD - Remove old object from domain

We have a bad habit of not removing computers from AD before re-imaging. So, when we a computer is re-imaged and renamed at the same time, we end up with two computer AD objects.

Is there any way of adding a step in the Task Sequence to remove the old computer object from AD? OR, maybe remove AD computer objects that are flagged as obsolete in SCCM?

Windows 10 Enterprise Computer Name Problems (SCCM 2012 R2 SP1)

Hi guys and gals

Has any of you bright minds seens similar behavour to this:

http://www.windows-noob.com/forums/index.php?/topic/12803-windows-10-enterprise-computer-name-problems-sccm-2012-r2-sp1/

-------------------------- RECAP ----------------------------

I'm having a strange issue, starting to mess around with building a Windows 10 Enterprise image for our campus and I seem to be having a problem with the task sequence properly reading in the computername that I give it.

Windows PE phase:

1. Prompt for OSDComputername using VB Script (same thing we have done with Win7/8.1 with no issues)

2. Use powershell to check variables: OSDComputername shows correct name and _SMSTSMachinename shows correct name.  Checking $env:computername in PE shows MINIWINPC or something (which is normal)

3.  After Apply Network Settings C:\windows\panther\unattend\unattend.xml shows the correct name

Windows phase:

1. Machine gets name WIN-XXXXXXX

2. Use powershell to check variables: OSDComputername shows correct name and _SMSTSMachinename shows correct name.  Checking $env:computername in PE shows WIN-XXXXXX or later in the task sequence DESKTOP-XXXXXX

3.  Machine joins domain and at end of task sequence has name of DESKTOP-XXXXXXX but seems to sometimes join domain under name WIN-XXXXXXX and end with DESKTOP-XXXXXX and cannot log into the machine (security database relationship error with domain controller)

Has anyone ran into anything like this in Win10 or Win7/8.1 and found a solution?  Out of probably 20 imaging attempts and fiddling with various settings I have only got it to get the correct name once...

Thanks

----------------------- MY RECAP OF WHAT I SEE --------------------------

Hi pembertj

I am seeing the same problem.

I made my .wim file on a SCCM 2012 R2 SP1 CU1 - without ADK 10 installed.

It's a regular Build and capture from the DVD media from Microsoft partner website (build 10240 x64)

My logfiles state the everything is all fine and dandy - but it gets ignored - just like your are seeing.

A scripted install though works just fine :)- but i would love it getting a build and capture to function too:)

Edit 1: Also had a look into c:\windows\panther\unatten\unattend.xml - to see if the computername is correct, which it is.

Edit 2: I took a closer look into c:\windows\debug\netsetup.log - to see what computername it thinks it has, and this shows me "Win-xxxxxx" - and i can see that it is successfully joined to the domain, afterwards i look on the domain, and love and behold, it is - BUT the computername of the machine is not "Win-xxxxx" it's "Desktop-xxx".

It's a bit strange.

Kind Regards

Hi,

I am using MDT 2013 for server deployment with custom wizard panes. It works fine on Physical Servers if I use Physical CD-ROM. However, on IBM Servers if I connect via ILO (RSA) and mount ISO as Remote Drive It works fine for first two wizard panes and when click Next to go to the third pane I get the following error. Same deployment works fine if I use physical CD-ROM on same IBM machine. It also works fine on VMWare if I use same ISO.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Otherwise I will just tell the OPS guys to use physical CD-ROM and not mount remote ISO when they build the server.

Thanks,

Driver Package Issue

We have a dozen driver packages in our OSD.  Everything was working fine.   Then I added drivers for a new model.  I added it to its own group and created a new package.  This seems to have broken 4 laptop builds.   The drivers for these 4 laptops do not get applied.   All the desktop builds still work fine.

Can adding a new driver(s) corrupt or break existing drivers?   

So I then Imported the drivers for one of the failed laptops.  I added it to a new category and created a new driver package.   I odified the task sequence to use this new package.    It runs the new driver package (I says so during the OS build.  I labeled it) but the drives do not get installed once complete.  

What on earth can cause this?
