Problem with SCCM 2012 system deployment
anyweb replied to night.walker's topic in Configuration Manager 2012
are you using virtual machines for this ? if so which type ? if it's hyperV set the NIC to Legacy Network adaptor, if it's vmware i believe you need the e1000 nic drivers added to your boot.wim files. to verify if you have dns issues check nslookup -
can you also confirm that the state of that package is Installed (look at package status)
-
well done, nice find

If you’re a Windows watcher, circle this date on your calendar: April 10, 2012. That’s the date when mainstream support for Windows Vista officially ends. And it cannot come soon enough for Microsoft, whose public image was badly damaged by the massively unliked Vista. If the rumors about a possible Windows 8 release in April 2012 are true, it will be an almost perfect changing of the guard. But vanquishing the ghost of Windows Vista is the easy challenge for Microsoft. Windows XP is still hanging around on stage, bumping into scenery and generally interfering with Microsoft’s careful messaging about all the cool and useful stuff it’s doing today. I thought about that date as I watched the keynote addresses from this week’s Microsoft Worldwide Partner Conference in Los Angeles. Some of the people I follow on Twitter were disappointed that Microsoft didn’t divulge more details about Windows 8 or even publicly release a platform preview. That shouldn’t have been surprising. WPC is, after all, a show for partners who are out there selling Microsoft products every day. Yes, they want to know what’s coming up, but they’re far more interested in the present. And for their (mostly business) customers, there are only two Windows choices these days: the 10-year-old XP and the still-new Windows 7. It’s almost like Vista never happened. Consider the words of Chief Operating Officer Kevin Turner, who told a packed audience, “Windows XP, Office 2003, and Internet Explorer 6 deserve a standing ovation. We love those products.” As Turner noted, those products made Microsoft and its partners a lot of money. After a pause for dramatic effect, he added, “But they’re dead.” Oh dear. I guess that means 300 million PCs still powered by Windows XP are zombies, and we all know how hard those are to kill. Which might explain why Corporate Vice President Tami Reller was practically pleading with partners to help them migrate customers away from XP “to a modern OS.” That’s happening, slowly. XP has lost roughly 10 percent of its share over the past year and should be below the 50% mark by the time Vista support ends next year. But the paradox for Microsoft is that businesses—notoriously conservative and slow to adopt new technology—are most likely to embrace Windows 7 when it’s old news. When it comes to Windows, businesses like being on the last version, not the current one. When Windows 8 is released, it will instantly make Windows 7 the safe choice for businesses. Not rational, I know, but that’s how the psychology works. More than anything else, Microsoft is looking forward to shipping Windows 8 so it can finally get back on a regular cadence with its operating system releases: the current one for consumers and early-adopter businesses, the previous one for conservative businesses and cheapskate consumers. With Vista finally out of the mix, that proposition will finally make sense again. via > http://www.zdnet.com/blog/bott/can-windows-8-finally-vanquish-the-ghosts-of-xp-and-vista/3570?tag=content;feature-roto

At long, long last, Windows XP is no longer the number one, end-user operating system. It only took, Microsoft, what? Not quite two years to get desktop users off XP to Windows 7? Well, you could look at it that way, but you’d be wrong. The truth is that users haven’t been moving from XP to 7 of their own free will. They’ve been moving only because their old XP PCs are finally giving up the ghost. Then, and only then, are they getting Windows 7. Or, are they? If you look closer at Net Applications’ latest end-user Web statistics you’ll see that desktop users are Not moving to Windows 7 in droves. While XP has dropped to 49.69%, Windows 7 use is only up to 27.92%. So, where is everyone else? Have they finally moved on to desktop Linux!? Ha. I wish! No, while almost 10% of users are still running Vista-the poor sods-many other people are moving on to Mac OS X. You didn’t need a survey to tell you that though. All you need to do is look around any coffee shop and you can see that for yourself. In one of my own local favorite hangouts-the Dripolator in Asheville, NC–I just did a quick count and there’s eight Mac laptops is use; three Windows PCs, two Windows 7 and one XP; and yours truly with my Samsung Chromebook. What’s far more telling though was the one woman who was using her iPad 2 with a Bluetooth keyboard. Two others were working with older iPads and one was using a Galaxy Tab using just their fingers. Everyone in the place, of course, had a smartphone. The phones were evenly divided between iPhone and Android models with one guy getting ticked off at his Blackberry. It’s the tablet and smartphone users who are really pointing the way to the end-user operating system future. According to a recent IDG global smartphone survey, 69% of users are now using their phones for business. Specifically, “70% browse the Internet regularly and use mobile applications. These devices are no longer limited to calls, email, and text messages as people go online from home, on the move, and in the office. When surfing the web on smartphones, respondents indicated that general and IT news are most popular, followed by social networking access.” In addition, 20% of this group, who were self-selected, tech. savvy users, already own tablets. Half of them are using their tablets for work. They’re using them for “Web browsing (93%), email (84%), mobile apps (72%), watching videos (69%), and reading publications (66%).” The world is leaving fat-client desktops, like Windows, and yes, Mac OS X and desktop Linux behind. The desktop operating system isn’t going to die out, but it’s already becoming less important. In the next few years, more and more of us are going to be using tablets and smartphones for both home use and business. In the long run, the question isn’t going to be “Which desktop operating system is going to be the winner?” No, it’s going to be, “Which mobile operating system will be the winner.” In 2021, we won’t be comparing Windows, Mac OS X and Linux as much as we will be Apple iOS; Google Android; HP webOS; other Linux-based mobile operating system such as MeeGo; and, possibly, Windows 8. “XP? WIndows 7? Those old things?” We’ll say. “I don’t know how the old folks ever coped with them!” via > http://www.zdnet.com/blog/btl/is-xp-finally-dying-or-is-it-the-pcs-its-been-running-on/53797?tag=content;feature-roto

PXE OSD always available to all computers?
anyweb replied to Adam K's question in Deploy software, applications and drivers
create a deployment collection, say 'Deploy Windows 7 to ALL known and Unknown' using direct membership add All Known client Machines (Windows xp and Windows 7) and add All Unknown computers to that collections direct membership rules the All Known client Machines query will be something like this 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 where SMS_R_System.OperatingSystemNameandVersion like "Microsoft Windows NT Workstation%" or SMS_R_System.OperatingSystemNameandVersion like "%Windows 7%" be aware that if you DONT want the task sequence to appear in RAP (run advertised programs) to limit it to an OS you are NOT using in your organistation like Windows Vista X64. cheers niall -

Introducing the windows-noob.com FrontEnd HTA ver 1.0
anyweb replied to anyweb's question in Frontends, HTA's and Web Services
no new hardware needed, just download mdt 2010 update 1 and integrate it with SCCM and enjoy the benefits of MDT integrated into sccm, you'll have to create your MDT Toolkit and MDT Settings packages, but that is beyond the scope of this post (which is about the windows-noob.com FrontEnd HTA ver 1.0), if you need help with integrating mdt and creating the packages, then create a new post -

we are using a script to enable bitlocker as we do not have a backend for it in AD yet, we are planning on managing our bitlocker clients via MBAM when it's finally released, no WinRE on these boxes as they are bare metal/new computer only did you update your boot.wim images with the cctk ? if I leave out the Enable HAPI step in the task sequence then an error is generated (Not enough resources are available to process this command (Error: 00000093; Source: Windows))
