Any input can anyone here provide?

Hi, I am attempting to deploy windows updates via ADR. I set the Evaluation Schedule to run every Tuesday at 12pm. However, after the initiate deployment, the Software Update Group deployment Scheduling changes from As soon as possible to a Specific time. Below are the screenshots for both the ADR and Software Update Groups settings. Why would this change? Also, ever since the timing has changed so has the deployment for the updates. So in other words, the updates do not get applied until the deadline has been reached. Any suggestions?

I forgot to create separate device collection and deploy (make available) the applications and packages I want to be available during the OSD process. Within the Wizard XML editor, I had to indicate with device collections the packages/applications are available to.

Nevermind, figured it out.

Hi all, I recently been trying to configure a MDT TS within SCCM 2012 for OSD deployment. I get prompted to tick the packages I want to install during my OSD process. However, when it gets to the 'Install Software' step it does not doing anything. No error message comes up nor does the SMSTS.log file indicate any files or steps that failed during the Install Software sequence. The confirmation page comes up and within the Application tab its indicating Unknown for each package I was trying to install. Am I missing something to configure with this step? The Base Variable name is set to PACKAGES and within the Install Application step its set to COALESCEDAPPS.

Never mind...I made a few changes to my TS and it is now beginning to apply to drive C:. Thank you so much for helping me out these past couple of days. You are the man, SCCM Guru (Anyweb)

Will it be possible to schedule another Teamviewer session sometime tomorrow? Can't seem to find why its only assigning drive D as primary and leaving C: as a temp partition and I feel like im overlooking a step in my TS.

Ok I found another log. Is this the one your looking for? After the reboot, the image is applied but the primary drive letter is still D: and the name of it is OSDisk.

Yeah that's where I got it from. No errors come up. Just the log indicating that its assign drive letter D: as the Primary OSDisk. I know from before in SCCM TS that I would have to add a variable step to preserve drive letter and it would assign C. But in the MDT TS its not doing that.

Sure here it is. Thanks again.

I tried your suggestion and placed the variable "OSDisk" within the Partition properties of the "Format and Partition Disk 6.1" step but still no go. I also noticed that it was indicated in the UEFI step as well so I tried to remove from there but still the OS is applied to drive D: I took some screenshots below to see why it keeps pointing to D: Should I be looking into the Format and Partition in the "Script does not exist or no partitions" step?

I attempted to change the Destination settings to "Specific logical drive letter" and assigned Drive Letter C:. But got an error stating not enough space on drive. So not sure if I'm looking in the right spot to apply my image to C: drive.

I got it to begin applying the image to a drive. However, it keeps applying drive letter D: instead of C: but the OSDPreserveDriveLetter is set to true. I tried changing it to false like I have it on my other TS that works perfectly but it still applies it to D: What settings should I have in the Apply Operating System Image step? I have it set to "Next available formatted partition"

Anyweb....YOU ARE THE MAN!!!!! That worked!! But now I got another error message when Applying the Operating System Image step.

Good idea. I will try that now.

Yes, every change I did I made sure to update it to the DP.

Thanks again for your help today. I tried it again with the change you made to the UDIWizard.xml file but no go. I also tried removing any other pages that related to 'Capture and Restore' and still no go. Do you think I should edit the UDIWizard.wsf file or anywhere else within the UDIWizard.xml I should be looking into?

Ok, just sent you an email there.

Keeping missing each other. When is a good time today?

Sure let me know if I can message you my ID and password to log in

Would it be easier if I export my TS and provide it to you?

Sure, I take it that its 3:15pm your time? So lets say 4:00p?

Would you be free sometime today?

Sure where can we go so I can give you the info and at what time?

I try to disable the Capture user data steps since I don't need to capture any local data from the new PCs. Here is a screenshot of the Format and Partition 6.1 step.
