Hi!
I have some remote locations where I use Stand-alone media to install the computer cause the WAN is to slow to transfer the image and application over it. I see some problems with this.
The first problem is that it does not connect to the SCCM-server to during installation which means that it does not get the correct computer name. I have solved this with a script that prompts for a computer name.
The second problem is that when the installation is complete it does not register itself so I most re-install the agent for it to register. Is this by design or is something wrong?
If it is by design then there should be another media type, "Content media" which you can just put packages, applications, drivers and images into but during installation, let the client download the rest of the information from the site server. e.g, task sequence, computer- and collection-variables, join the domain etc...
Thanks!
