    The source is from here. http://blog.itminutes.net/?p=781

    Have you read the log file to see if the SW inv is timing out? If it does then you will never get any data from them. If it does complete how big is the MIF file? If it is over 50 MB then you will never get any data returned. If it is under 50 MB then you need to edit the registry to have MIF collected that are bigger than 5 MB.

    Yup and this is one of the reasons why I recommend turning off SW Inv., It takes 4 hours to timeout. During this time the HD is constantly busy and it slows down the systems. If you are doing SW inv more than once a week, it is too often. Once every two week or once a month should be more than enough.
  4. GarthMJ
    It means that it is in the middle of doing one of the other task. My guess would be Software Inventory.

    So until the content is out there, nothing will install. I would look at why content is not making it out to your DP.
  6. GarthMJ
    Why don't you change the status message thresholds?
  7. GarthMJ
    I wouldn't bother porting them over unless I know for use that they are being used. Then if someone know that they are being use they should also be able to answer the question on how the data is collected too.
  8. GarthMJ
    Stupid question but has the content been sent to that DP yet?
  9. GarthMJ
    You need to check your MP logs then. Does the mif file get sent to your MP.
  10. GarthMJ
    It looks like all of those are custom classes, So this isn't going to be easy.. Currently how is the data collected for these views?

    IMO SW inv will not help you with SW audits. For example: What is sol.exe? If you guess solitaire you would be right? However if you also guessed HP Solation Center, you would also be right. What about your DP do they have a license for everything since the software is on the servers? So for over 100 minutes this PC is trashing it hard drive to find most (not all) exe, dll, and MSI. Since it is not 100% what is the point? Now back to you problem, do you seen the PC’s name on the site server within the sinvproc.log?

    Does the Inventoryagent.log say that the SW inventory completes? BTW, I recommend turning off SW inv as there are just too many headaches with it and IMO it has almost zero value.

    Read this article, where does the Hardware inventory stop for any of these PCs? http://www.myitforum.com/articles/8/view.asp?id=11236

    It is not possible. How would CM07 / CM12 know that a PC was on during a give time?
  16. GarthMJ
    SCCM client center does not need to be installed in the site server, you can running form any workstation. I use it from my workstations and remotely connect to the affected PCs.
  17. GarthMJ
    That tool will clean out all the flags that tell the CM client that it has been run before and therefore the client thinks that it has never seen the advertisement before and runs it again.
  18. GarthMJ
    You are correctly the Reporting database is NOT backup by CM12/CM07 backup task. Yes it will restore all default reports when you restore your site. However you should note that all custom reports will be lost if you don’t back them up. If you like you can automated this task by adding the SSRS backup into the After backup batch file.

    Try this http://smsug.ca/blogs/garth_jones/archive/2013/01/22/list-collection-membership.aspx

    I'm not sure but it might re-run when the PC is back on the Intranet as that error should be considered a "soft fail". If you SCCM Client Center (freeware tool), you can re-run the advertisement.
  21. GarthMJ
    No, Clients can only have 1 WSUS server. No in CM07, you MUST point directly at MS site for WSUS data, you can’t point to your corp WSUS server. You can use a GPO to override the CM07 SUP setting and have your Server point to the corp WSUS server. IMO that is a bit a of a waste, since Maintenance windows should be used.
  22. GarthMJ
    So I have never had the problem myself, I only talked to the product team about this issue. IMO, they could have fixed it one of two ways: Fixed the SQL view to remove double byte characters Update the client to remove double byte characters listed in ARP data Worse case is that they update the Client, this means that you will have to wait until the client has been rolled out and they report back hardware inventory. So a week or two.. Let me know how it goes.
  23. GarthMJ
    That issue should have been fixed within SP1, Please open a support case with CSS. There is a fix for this.
  24. GarthMJ
    It will cause no problems, All that it does is tell clients to scan for each classification of SU. You them must tell CM07/CM12 to deploy those SU to PCs. So unless you tell it to deploy them nothing will happen.
  25. GarthMJ
    I can see form the screenshot that you have CM12 Content library on your E:\, you should move this, to another drive. And H:\ looks like the best one, all your other drives are just too small.
