RE: [mssms] Static DPs

[Richard Poole]

Thanks, and I have them checking into their management point fine with the 
entry but can’t seem to find a method of telling these workgroup PCs which DPs 
to go to without relying on the MP to give them a list…a list that’s going to 
come from SCCM’s supported boundaries, which can’t be done due to the 
conflicting IP ranges in the two separated networks. Else each side is going to 
get info at some point about going to DPs that it really shouldn’t.

Thank you,
Richard Poole

[mssms] RE: 1702 Express Install Files

[Enley, Carl]

Yes thanks for the reply, I see some threads on technet as well as 
systemcenterdudes forum. I guess a lot of people are not using this feature 
yet. ☹ No response from MS yet that I can find.

Yep, seems to be an acknowledged issue. Seems the range requests are not quite 
right in some way which is resulting in slow downloads..
Couple of similar stories on Technet forums too so you are not alone 

Subject: [mssms] 1702 Express Install Files

Is anyone using this feature in SCCM 1702? I was really looking forward to 
getting this up and running after the 1702 upgrade but I am a little 
disappointed with the results I am seeing.

I understand the initial download is larger and I am okay with that, my patch 
package jumped from 13.1GB to nearly 44GB so the 2-3X size increase was pretty 
accurate. My issue is the time that it is taking to install the cumulative 
update, it is taking almost 3+ hours on my test machines. The machines are all 
W10 1607 with the latest April update applied, everything in the log files 
(deltadownload.log) indicates all is well and they are using the express files 
to install. It just takes forever to apply the update.

Is anyone else experiencing very long install times using the express install 
files? I am going to test a 1703 machine today to see if it makes any 
difference.

Thanks
Carl

[mssms] Application Install Only Failing During OSD

[Morris, Spencer]

I'm trying to install Symantec Enterprise Vault in an OSD task sequence. My 
batch file is this: msiexec.exe /i "%~dp0Symantec Enterprise Vault Outlook 
Add-in.msi" /qn /norestart

This was working before Office 365 was added into the image. The only errors I 
can find are in smsts.log: "Installation failed with error (0x80070643)" and in 
event viewer: Product: Symantec Enterprise Vault Outlook Add-in 11.0.1.3474 -- 
Error 1921. Service 'Windows Search' (WSearch) could not be stopped. Verify 
that you have sufficient privileges to stop system services.

I also tried stopping the windows search service, installing the application 
and then starting the service with no luck as well.

This application installs find when deployed to a computer outside of OSD.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks in advance.
-Spencer

[mssms] Expired updates being removed from SCCM

[Heaton, Joseph@Wildlife]

I'm assuming that I set something up incorrectly, but I'm noticing that all 
Expired updates are just gone from SCCM.  The problem with this, is that I 
can't give historical stats on previous months' update deployments.  And, I 
can't go searching for compliance on the March, Security Monthly Quality 
Rollup...

Anyone know off-hand what setting I messed up?
