    When did you create your SW metering rules? if the has been under 30 days, don't expect anything useful for this report and even then you will really need to wait for 60+ days.
  2. GarthMJ
    First off that report doesn't use HW inventory. It use SW inventory. SW inventory is disabled by default as it is useless. https://www.enhansoft.com/sccm-software-inventory/ Instead use the ARP reports to see what is installed on computers.
  3. GarthMJ
    To answer your questions directly about one or two SQL instances for WSUS. Is that it will cause conflicts between the two WSUS Servers if they share a db. Aka if some deploys an software update (SU) on WSUS, it will get installed on CM clients too (outside of CM control). From the CM standpoint, CM will change that products and classifications existing within WSUS, including declining SU too. Thereby stopping any WSU deployment of that SU.
  4. GarthMJ
    You need to give more details. Pen drive of exactly data what data? What is the other WSUS server used for, exactly?
  5. GarthMJ
    This is very important details that was missing from your first post. How exactly are you updating your existing WSUS server now? Why exactly do you not want to use CM to deploy all SU to all computers? aka why have the second WSUS on the internal network at all?
  6. GarthMJ
    Is the RAID drivers included within WInPE?
  7. GarthMJ
    This will not be supported and you WILL have problem when you manage WSUS outside of SCCM for non-SCCM computer. There is NO problem having WSUS installed on the CM server with its own clean db.
  8. GarthMJ
    Start with a Clean WSUS server using full SQL server.
  9. GarthMJ
    you don't want to use an existing WSUS server. You want a fresh one that is use SQL database not WID.
  10. GarthMJ
    is there a question? You do know that you don't need a CAS unless you have 150000 computers.
  11. GarthMJ
    It is possible, but your error clearly state that you need to contact MS support to solve this issue. If this for a test lab IMO there is no benefit to having a CAS as it just take up resources on your VM server add headache due to replication issues, etc. Those same resources could be used for other links like, clients or remote WSUS or remote SQL, etc. All of which is better use of resources than a CAS.
  12. GarthMJ
    Unless you have over 150,000 computers you don't need a CAS. If you have more than 150,000 computer then you should be contact MS support for help.
  13. GarthMJ
    That is to be expected if multiple sites are discovering the device. It doesn't hurt anything.
  14. GarthMJ
    WSUS setup hasn't really changed since CM12. So if you are happy with those guides go for it.
  15. GarthMJ
    And did you follow the solution given?
  16. GarthMJ
    Doesn't two deployment work? as mandatory to TCU and second one as available?
  17. GarthMJ
    do you have the SCCM console installed on your computer?

    I see that you posted this everywhere. To be honest with you, I would not recommend using SW inventory to do this. Particularly without defining a path for the exe. Here are several blog on the topic. https://www.enhansoft.com/sccm-software-inventory/ https://www.enhansoft.com/how-do-you-determine-the-length-of-a-software-inventory-scan-cycle/ https://www.enhansoft.com/slow-software-inventory-cycle-in-sccm-2012/ Just be aware that even if you are scanning just two files. Like I show in this blog. https://www.enhansoft.com/how-do-you-determine-the-length-of-a-software-inventory-scan-cycle/ it can take about an hour or longer to complete. Heck in this blog it took over 4 hours https://www.enhansoft.com/slow-software-inventory-cycle-in-sccm-2012/ SW inventory now is a low priority process and can take days to complete as just about everythign preempt it. While SW inv is running it will BLOCK both Hardware Inventory and Heartbeat discovery from running. Honestly if you goal is to uninstall this SW, then I would use a CI to do this as it will happen a lot faster than SW inventory. You can even use the remediation part of a CI to uninstall the SW. You can even use Appblocker to prevent the software for installing/running in the first place too.

    GarthMJ replied to Kevin79's question in How do I ?

    Have you looked at the AI reports?
  20. GarthMJ
    There is no simple answer each inbox does different things with different log files. The single line that you have posted above does not show a problem, it show that the sender is actually sending data. What you need to determine is the backlog due to slow links or twoo many packages been sent at once or ???
  21. GarthMJ
    You should determine what the problem is and fix that. just cleaning out the files is a bad idea as it hides the problems that you are having.
  22. GarthMJ
    FYI. https://www.enhansoft.com/never-leave-your-sql-server-database-in-full-recovery-model-without-a-backup/

    This blog will help you determine if the HW inventory has been sent to ther db. https://www.enhansoft.com/updated-troubleshoot-configmgr-hardware-inventory-issues/ Also force a full inventory. one of these blog will help you with that. https://www.enhansoft.com/?s=force+hardware+inventory
  24. GarthMJ
    Did it update the database?
  25. GarthMJ
    Has Hardware inventory run since it was installed?
