Amen! Time to start talking about Option 66 and 67 now guys ;-) tihihihi…
To cheer everybody up, I am putting this game into our PXE solution so that you can play while DL is going: http://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=64962 //A From: listsad...@lists.myitforum.com [mailto:listsad...@lists.myitforum.com] On Behalf Of Todd Hemsell Sent: den 28 januari 2015 18:19 To: mssms@lists.myitforum.com Subject: Re: [mssms] RE: Right-Click Client Install Not a big deal is it? mine works just fine. If it does not work for you, don't do it. "In this context, "not supported" means that if you reported problems with the use of the ClientPatch folder directly - or problems as a result of its use - we would not change the product code to resolve those. " Ok, so they will not change the code. But if your clients do not work you still get support. The doom and gloom over "Supported" is way over hyped. I doubt many people even know what it really means. It CERTAINLY does not mean they will no longer help you resolve issues. PSS is a profit center after all. Honestly, I have found at least 5 bugs int he content distribution systems and several more in the application model. One of them lets users bypass software approval requirements. THAT is 100% fully supported, and yet... NO CODE CHANGES. So even when they "Support" it, they do not really support it. Completely meaningless term, "Supported" On Wed, Jan 28, 2015 at 11:10 AM, Daniel Ratliff <dratl...@humana.com<mailto:dratl...@humana.com>> wrote: The one known one is outlined in the article Jason linked to. http://blogs.technet.com/b/configmgrteam/archive/2009/04/08/automatically-applying-hotfixes-to-the-configuration-manager-2007-client-during-installation.aspx The specific issue uncovered so far is that if certain command line properties<http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb680980.aspx> were specified (such as FSP or SMSSLP) they may not be honored when the patch is applied. There could be other issues that we are not aware of yet, but that one is apparent quickly if you are in that state.

NOBODY can say what the "known side-effects" actually are. I have used that method for years and years and never had a single issue as a result. MS hardly supports the stuff they do support anyway. Not a whole lot of loss there IMHO.

Many folks do it successfully, but given that it’s explicitly unsupported, I would highly recommend you not do it this way.

Like I said, updating our SCCM server falls under one of our admins duties. But as I got to digging, there appeared to be a CU msp path in the folder structure of my client install files. Inside the folder with ccmsetup.exe, there is the i386 and x64 folders. In each of those is a folder labeled ClientPatch, and within that, the msp update for the CU. For whatever reason, we had the current ccmsetup.exe version, but that ClientPatch folder had CU2. I replaced it with CU3 (configmgr2012ac-r2-kb2994331-x64.msp), redistributed the package, and now my right-click properly installs the current CU3 version.
