tmiller_hockey Posted May 22, 2012 Report post Posted May 22, 2012 So I made some changed to my task sequences, do I need to redeploy those? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
anyweb Posted May 22, 2012 Report post Posted May 22, 2012 no you don't, however if you want to be SURE That you are executing the latest changes when pxe booting for example, you can add a version number to the name of the task sequence, that way, if you made changes to Deploy Windows 7 X64 v1.0, increment the version number by one and you should see Deploy Windows 7 X64 v1.1 when you pxe boot. This ensures that your clients have the latests policies for this deployment (sometimes theres a delay depending on hierarchy..) i use versioning a lot when i'm testing task sequences as i want to be sure i'm testing my changes and not the old task sequence 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TedLarsen Posted May 31, 2012 Report post Posted May 31, 2012 Great idea on versioning...I have a somewhat related question however....is it possible to delete an existing Task Sequence deployment in SCCM 2012? Let's say I just want to delete an old one instead of versioning another one. I can't find anyway to delete the old Deployment. What am I missing?

tmiller_hockey Posted May 31, 2012 Report post Posted May 31, 2012 I've just deleted the TS and it removes from my PXE menu. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have made some changes and added a version, I waited about 20 minutes and it doesn't update? In 2007 the change is immediate, I have to reboot my system using Boot media or PXE and its changed. For expediency I have been deploying the TS every time I make a change. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
anyweb Posted May 13, 2013 Report post Posted May 13, 2013 it should be more or less immediate in a standalone site, what site hierarchy do you have and how are you testing the changes exactly ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
