hitman47 Posted June 17, 2013 Report post Posted June 17, 2013 Hi, is there a possibility in SCCM 2012 to make the Web Portal Site available only for Admins and that they can deploy different Software to the Machines and not the Users?

Iroqouiz Posted June 18, 2013 Report post Posted June 18, 2013 AFAIK you can't do that. The whole point of the App Catalog is to deploy software to users and not computers, and it's not meant for admins to use, but rather only the end users. Set up role based administration in the normal console instead, and give your admins only permissions to do whatever it is they should be doing. Won't be web based, but it's the best option.

GarthMJ Posted June 18, 2013 Report post Posted June 18, 2013 Why can’t you do that? Admin are just users, You can target SW to Admins and since the SW is target to Admins only, admins are the only ones that can see it and install it. Personally I avoid like the plague giving out the CM12 console to anyone. Instead I use security group to target software, this allow Helpdesk staff to add a user to a security group and the software will be installed after the user login. IMO the real question that you need to answer is what are you trying to do. Are you trying to create a web interface to allow HD to install software remotely on a PC or do you want the Admins to logon to each PC and install the SW.

GarthMJ Posted June 18, 2013 Report post Posted June 18, 2013 So describe the process that you want your HD admins to use to install the software. This will give us a better idea as to pointing you in the right direction to deploy the SW to the PCs. aka do they logon to the PC and trigger the install Do they add the PC into a group Do they add the user into a group What is you SLA to install the SW? etc...

hitman47 Posted June 18, 2013 Report post Posted June 18, 2013 The HD should logon to the Web Protal and select the software package that the user want anf after assigning the software to a pc it should start automatically to install the software.

GarthMJ Posted June 18, 2013 Report post Posted June 18, 2013 There are no built-in web portals to do what you want. You will need to do one of the following. Look at 3rd solutions, like Flexera or 1e. Look at something like SCSM with orchestrator Advertise to a security group and have the HD add the user or pc into the group keep in mind that a logon / reboot is need to get this to work Personally I would try the 3rd party solutions.
