Reboots in TS not working correctly?

[joengelhart]

Hello,

 

I am having several applications fail to install and they always seem to be different application every time I run the TS. I have reboots between some of my app installs to help from reboots stacking up. I noticed on the first reboot when it comes back up it shows "Setup is preparing your computer for first time use" and the SCCM window is over the top showing "Restart Computer" "Initializing the System Center Configuration Manager Client".....

 

Is this normal? I feel like I haven't had this issue before. Any ideas would be great!

 

Thanks

Hi,

If you have reboots before applicaiton installations you should tweak the following values if you haven't already...

Where exactly are you applying this tweak? I added in reboots recently to see if it helps get all of my applications installed. At the moment the reboots do not seem to be helping. I'm getting applications that are just straight up getting skipped during the TS process.

I'm seeing this issue on laptops, desktops, tablets, HHD/SSD. I get "Install Software failed, hr=0x87d00215" during random parts of my package installs. I also see above that "The sms client service it not running".

What could be going on here? I'm not following what the issue is. It seem to re random.....

Any ideas anyone? I have added:

 

SMSTSMPListRequestTimeout=120000

 

SMSTSDownloadRetryCount=5

 

SMSTSDowloadRetryDelay=15

 

But it did not fix my issue.....

Here are the SMST logs with the following errors :angry:

Does anyone have any ideas.....I'm getting the feeling that it has something to do with config manager trying to update to CU1 in the middle of installing other applications.

[Eswar Koneti]

is this happening across all machines or only specific ? have you added the patch to the task sequence in client installation step ? how did you set the sccm 2012 client installation task action ?

something to look at http://henkhoogendoorn.blogspot.com/2011/01/task-sequence-fails-after-r3-client.html ?

It does happen across all of my machines. Right now I have a TS with an OS, office and firefox. Once It gets to office it throws the error. However if I remove firefox office installs. If I remove office. Firefox installs. Almost like I am on a time limit of how much stuff I can get installed before the TS fails. I'm using Sccm 2012 R2 SP1 CU2. Does this apply? Does SCCM really not install the CU2 Software Center upon imaging automatically? I noticed upon upgraded to CU2 it update and distributed my Configuration Manager Client Package.

I see that you use a Restart Computer step imediatly after the Setup Windows and ConfigMgr step. I've seen this causing issues in combination with applications when the Notify the user before restarting checkbox is cleared and by that removing the Message display time-out. If you really need that restart step, make sure it has at least the default time-out. Otherwise the client might have to little time to successfully initialize.
