Martin9991 Posted May 4, 2016 Report post Posted May 4, 2016 Hi guys, So i have a package im deploying and it requires pre reqs etc. The package is set to retry when it fails, Because i know eventually it will deploy and work. The problem im having is some of the devices in the collection appear to have stopped retrying. When i kick off the advertisement for that device in then works.... So im just wondering how would be best to kick this deployment off again as i dont fancy re running the advertisement on each machine as it will take ages! Thanks in advance.

jorlando Posted May 5, 2016 Report post Posted May 5, 2016 This does not seem like a good way to deploy a package. If I read this correctly, you deployed a package and expect it to fail until the machine eventually gets the required prerequisites? Why not create an application that has the prerequisites as dependencies? Or there is an option to run another program first (Package not application side). Even using a batch file to install things one at a time sounds better than the proposed solution. However, if you must use the model you have proposed what is the schedule set to? If the schedule simply says "as soon as possible" it will only run once. You need to tell it to run weekly, or daily, or whatever you desire. Some other considerations would be if you are using maintenance windows. The program run time may exceed the window? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
