Error 0x80072ee2 = The operation timed out Use this as a starting point.

Try this to use the local system account. http://verbalprocessor.com/2007/12/05/running-a-cmd-prompt-as-local-system/

So to be clearly, When you use the local system account (not a domain or local admin account), you are getting access denied?

What services are you trying to change? Why error message are you getting when you change it using the local system account?

Then that is you answer to them. You tell them that you tested it again, in your environment and the account didn't get removed. and therefore it is something special within their environment.

What folder is using all the diskspace?

Since the error is an timeout, I would suggest the issue is with your network or firewall.

ok but for what end? Why do you care that care that someone is log on to a PC?

What do you mean by "Unattended/Attended Systems"?

Sure you can do this but I wouldn't recommend it. The trick is you define the DC within your LDAP query.

Take a look at the built-in status message queries. They should give you what you want.

I tested both links are they both work fine.

Let me repeat myself, what you are doing is completely unsupported and you WILL need to undo this every time you apply a SP or CU. There is no way around it. Now to the issue at hand, there are lots of way to do this in a supported manor. The question is how much effort do you want to give this? Why not have user enter this information in a pretty interface within WMI and inventory this, which populate your MW collections? Why not use the CM12 SDK to modify the db and therefore you have populate MW collection based on this? Why not allow user to move their computer within the correct collection (aka maintenance window collection), using the SDK and Website? Why not have SCORCH move the computer within the correct collection based on data from the website/database?

This is very bad, you need to Contact CSS directly for support ASAP! Your database has gotten out of wack. This means on CSS can help you to solve this issue.

First off it is not supported to publish data into CM12 like you are suggesting. Doing what you have done is completely unsupported and you will need to undo it every time you apply a SP or CU. Why does the data need to be in CM12 at all? Why does the data need to be seen in CM12 console?

But Remember I said local system account, That is a computer account and not a true user.

You problem will likely be your xcopy. Remember that CM12 runs a local system account, which likely doesn't have access to the network share.

There is not trick to this, How exactly would you do this manually or programmatically. Once you do that you can send it out using CM12.

No one can tell you the process as you need to determine a few things first. Are you just going to replace the file then there are ton of examples on how to do this if you google for it. Are you going to edit the file and add you entries, then you will need to script this and again there are lot of example on how to do this if you google it too.

You can't. I'm not sure why you would want too either using WQL.

After 168 attempts, a deploy will just fail and will not continue. So.....

You didn't answer my question. Have you confirmed that SQL Express is being inventoried? aka can you see with within resource explorer? I know for a fact that you can collect SQL express data. I have similar but custom method to collect this data.

I look at this and you will need to contact CSS directly for support on this.. The issue is with AI data.

Have you confirmed that SQL Express is being inventoried?
