Issue with Task Sequence and NAA
By jtelling,

Hello, I am fairly new to Config Manager and would like some guidance from the pros. Running into an issue when creating Task Sequences for OSD. When i go to deploy the TS, the last page/tab has an alert "A network access account is required to access content from Windows PE" and there is only one option from the drop down, when there used to be two (see pic). I have a NAA setup and verified, and the deployment of a previous TS did not have this issue (10 minutes prior to creating current "probl

Cannot see Win10 1511 Clients in All Systems Collection
By krdell,
I have a bunch of Win10 clients on site. A bunch are 10240 and the rest are 1511 (10586). I am realizing that I cannot see the 1511 clients in sccm (all systems) despite the fact that the config manager client says it is connected to my site and site code with no problems. When I create a collection and query for 10240 machines they all come up fine but get nothing for 10586. Both versions have been deployed using the same TS and config mgr client. Any ideas?
Multi-Site SCCM Infra Design Question - DPs

By slice16,
Afternoon all!
Please can someone point me in the right direction with an SCCM design I am currently contemplating? We are currently running a project where we are automating the deployment and configuration of servers within our on-premise and Azure subscription. There will be significant automation workflows being called from a dedicated Orchestrator instance, that's primary job will be to deploy servers (physical/virtual) and hand over to SCCM for day to day management.

Surface Device Drivers

By Leon1983,
I was just wondering what everyone's standard practice was when importing the different updated versions of MSI's and Driver packages for all of the Surface Devices?
We are currently using Surface Pro 3, 4 and Books within the organisation and was wondering if I should import the separate versions them into SCCM as their own application (in the case of the MSI) or Driver package (self explanatory) with the version number specified for each?. Or should I be removing old versions once they hav
Device Collection - Not checked in for 30 days
By bowlen,
Hi Guys,
I'm wanting to create a query based device collection which shows all computers that have not checked in for the last 30 days.
I can see a query that would show machines that haven't had a software scan in the last 30 days...
select SMS_R_SYSTEM.ResourceID,SMS_R_SYSTEM.ResourceType,SMS_R_SYSTEM.Name,SMS_R_SYSTEM.SMSUniqueIdentifier,SMS_R_SYSTEM.ResourceDomainORWorkgroup,SMS_R_SYSTEM.Client from SMS_R_System inner join SMS_G_System_SUP_SCAN_TOOL on SMS_G_System_SUP_SCAN_TOOL.R
Run Elevated Command Prompt during OSD
By Kops,
I would like to add a step to my task sequence to copy a couple of files from the SCCM distribution point to the C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Accessories folder. This should be a fairly easy task but this can only be done using an elevated (run as administrator) command prompt. The command looks something like...
copy "\\SCCM\Sources\Shortcuts\Internet Explorer.lnk" "C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Accessories"
Is there an easy way to do thi
