Mikey C Posted November 1, 2012 Report post Posted November 1, 2012 I cant beleive i will be the only person asking questions about the release of this hotfix, so thought i would start a new thread. Obviously, first we need to install the hotfix on all the servers, including the server hosting the sms provider (which is the SQL box in our case). 1) Do I need to install it on all machines with the just the console installed, or just Win 8 computers with the console installed? 2) Do I need to deploy the fix to all devices, or just Windoes 8 ones? There doesnt appear to be a mif file in the hotfix like with KB977384, does that mean that the ccmexec service is not restarted as part of the client install? 3) Do i need to add this hotfix into task sequences PATCH= for all devices or just Windows 8 machines? The hotfix also seems to address an issues which is not documented as being Win 8 related: "When the system processes a new power profile, the SMS Agent Host service (Ccmexec.exe) or the WMI Provider Host service (Wmiprvse.exe) stops unexpectedly." Can anyone ellaborate on that - Is this hotfix recommended for anyone who has no plans to impliment Windows 8 (but who experiences that issue)? If so, do they need to do any of the above?
