Hello ,
I have a SCCM 2012 R2 SP1 with one primary server in one site with 3 secondary servers in different sites, all of them connected via MPLS.Currently I am planning to install WSUS and SUP in primary for all the sites.If I am right Software Update Point uses Distribution point and secondary sites will be using DP to update clients ?
Do I need to install SUP in secondary sites also or both WSUS and SUP in secondary?Kinldy advise.
Folks
Scenario - Workgroup Server, 2012 R2. in DMZ and is the download server for SCCM 2012. Downloads via Proxy Server.
All functions of SCCM Software Updates work 100%.
There are other clients in the same DMZ that work 100% all with same subnet
WSUS server is single NIC - VLAN 2 for all traffic
The other servers are dual NIC. VLAN 1 for WWW and VLAN 2 for "internal"
SCCM Agent functions on this WSUS download server work, EXCEPT this error.
Here are excerpts from the two main logs on the client- IPs and servername removed

Have re-installed SCCM agent still have problem.

Hi,
This month, we are having some issues with our monthly fixes deployment in our Lab environment.
For our monthly updates, we always create a new updategroup of all available security and critical fixes per OS (every month). This month we had a problem that on some servers the available updates were not showing in software center. After running the updates deployment cycle, the following message appears for the assigned updategroup: Assignment({B27D0A77-4F09-4019-8B8B-5B49C9B7098F}) already in progress state (AssignmentStateDetecting). No need to evaluate UpdatesDeploymentAgent 16/06/2015 14:19:00 2716 (0x0A9C). It doesn't ever finish, so updates are not displayed. By creating different updategroups (removing some updates) and deploying them, I found that for 1 servers kb2894854 and KB2898869 were the problem. Once this patches were removed from the list, the deployment worked and I could install the remaining updates. Afterwards, I deployed those fixes seperately but again I got the same message in the updatesdeployment.log (already in progress).
So I manually installed those fixes and all seems fine. I'm afraid that the same will occur next month, as the patches will be in the updategroup again. Even now if I deploy the complete updatelist, it still says in progress, even after all the patches are installed and the machine is compliant with that list.
On a second machine, KB3033929 is the culprit. Other servers are there...
Is this a know issue and/or how can we troubleshoot this? I don't find any errors in the logfiles (updatesdeployement, scanagent, windowsupdate,updatstore). I've searched on this issue for days now, but didn't find a solution.
Maybe it is also not a good idea to deploy all available patches but only deploy what has been released the last (2,3...) month(s) and only use those complete patchlist for compliancy tests?
Recently Microsoft released a critical update to IE (MS15-093 - 3087985). As such we created an Emergency patch deployment for this patch (not knowing there was a prerequisite). When we looked at the deployment in SCCM it showed compliant on the majority of the machines. However, when we went to the machines we did not see the update. We came to find out that MS15-093 had a prerequisite that was not on the machines (3078071).
This prerequisite update 3078071 is in our SCCM enviroment, downloaded and available to be deployed, but was not a part of the Emergency Patch Deployment
So my question is...
1. Why does SCCM show compliant when the patch was not installed?
2. How does SCCM manage pre-rerequisites during a normal patch process?
Our goal would be that on the night of the update deployment, the workstation checks for updates, installes required updates, reboot if needed, immediatly checks again for updates again, install updates, reboot, and <keep repeating> until all updates are installed. However it appears that the workstation only does 1 cycle and then has to wait for the next month to pick up any updates that had prerequisites.
You insight and assistance would be greatly appreciated.
After installing SCCM 2012 R2 SP1, if either value for Software available time ORInstallation deadline is greater than a single digit (>9), the ADR properly sets the deployment schedule but then truncates the far right digits and re-saves the ADR. For example, let's say you have an ADR schedule set to become Available 12 hours after the rule is run and has an Installation deadline 24 hours after that. After the ADR runs, you will notice the availability is chopped down to 1 and the deadline is chopped down to 2. I have tested using other values like 58 hours and the value is trimmed to 5. I've even tested with 3 digit values using a deadline of 154 hours and after the ADR runs, sets the value back to 1. This happens whether you use hours, days, weeks or months.
Hello, I was wondering if there's any guidance/best practice for controlling a reboot sequence across multiple servers with dependencies? IE, given Database A, App B C D, Apps must go down, then Database, then Database must come up, then apps.
I figuerd you could terminate the problmeatic services on the app servers, reboot the DB, and then trigger a reboot on the app servers based on ping response to the database? But I'm not sure how you would set up that trigger in the SCCM console.
Thoughts?
Hello,
can we create a patch status report from SCCM console which containing the information about the patching status e.g. list of servers on which patch is installed, on servers which are patch is pending, restart required etc.
If yes can anybody please share the steps with me.
Thanks in advance.
Since August 4th I've been having problem with some of my Windows 7 vms (and 1 or 2 Windows 2008 R2 vms). There may be other OSes too, but I've only found mostly win 7 machines so far. Seems to affect newly created VMs and recently I found a couple of VMs that are almost a year old with the problem. Seems totally random and I can't determine which machines might be affected, and which ones won't
About every hour, for an hour, the CPU goes to 100% with svchost.exe using all the cycles. As far as I can tell it seems related to the Endpoint Protection client. I don't control the SCCM/Endppint protection stuff but I've been working with the people who do but don't have a reliable solution. We've tried deleting the C:\SoftwareDistrubution folder, they have tried to "push the client" to a few of the affected VMs but it only seems to have worked on 2 of the 3 we tested with. I've updated the endpoint client, we've tried some wmi hotfix and I already has some windows update for fixing long scans/errors with low memory and windows update (I forget the patch number at the moment). The people who manage this tell me they have cleaned up old patches/expired updates on the server but that isn't helping either.
If I disable the Windows update service, everything is fine but domain policies revert that change a few hours later. The machines in question do NOT have any windows updates pushed to them via SCCM.
This is what I see in the C:\WindowsUpdate.log. I've even noticed I only get AV definition updates every 2-5 days on these problem vms, I don't know why it doesn't find the newer defs on a daily basis. I can provide ccm logs from the machine but there are so many, I don't know which ones would be needed.
These are all test vms so we have windows update set to never check for updates but it still hooks into the SCCM stuff after installing the ccmsetup/scep stuff.
Has anyone seen this before or know where/what to look for to find a permanent fix to the problem?

Hi
Is that possible
to restrict users to only see a subset of the Reports that are available in SCCM 2012 (on the SSRS website)?
Is that possible?
Thanks
Hi,
I've found reports to show which machines have specific update installed when that KB update is present in SCCM but I would like to find one or two KBs which are not in SCCM and see how many machines they are installed on. I couldn't see a built-in report to do this? Can anyone help?
Thanks,
There is Machine which shows few patches (around nine in my machine) as Failed on Software Center, and error comes as - The software change returned error code 0x87D00668(-2016410008). Have gone through various post in TechNet and found that this usually means that even after the software update was applied to the system, it did not satisfy the conditions for making the system appear as "patched".
already Performed various troubleshooting steps mentioned on :
https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/0a377ac1-f112-40a4-ad69-e2f1e66c5a5d/failed-software-update-returns-error-code-0x87d00668?forum=configmanagersecurity
But did not get the success :-(

Hello
We are a hosting company and we are using sccm 2012.
Yesterday we replaced an old application from a customer with a new one.
For that, we deployed the new software and tried to remove the old one with a configuration baseline + remedy script.
The detection script does nothing else than a simple test-path in powershell.
test-path -Path "C:\Program Files (x86)\..."
If test-path returns false it is compliant (boolean).
The remedy script forces the deletion of that folder.
Remove-Item "C:\Program Files (x86)\..." -Recurse -Force
I tried to deploy the Baseline and executed the script manually and both worked perfectly fine at my testcomputer (same domain as the SCCM server), but it fails at the customer computers with the error 0x87D00329. Application requirement evaluation or detection failed, Error Category: Discovery.
In my customers active directory, only signed powershell scripts are allowed. The powershellscripts are signed and they work perfecly fine if I execute them manually on the computers.
How does the deployment of these scripts exactly work?
I'm able to import a script, but i seem to import the sourcecode but not the file itself. might it be, that the signature doesn't work properly?
I've read about interactive commands, but i assume, that test-path and remove-item work interactively, so this should not be the cause.
In the Logs DCAgent i could not find much.
Thanks for your help
In various in built reports for security update, Why do MS calculate its compliance considering updates 'Not required' as 'Compliant'?
Eg: Patch compliance report of a particular patch ->
All updates which compliance is mentioned is calculated with (Install + Not Required) / Total

We have an OSD deployment of Windows Server 2012 R2, and I created an step in TS for "Install Software Updates" "All Software Update". I deployed the SUG to the OSD collection and it is available. The Software Updates start working some time after the OSD installation finished.
I created the Master image in MDT and run the Windows Update from Microsoft. I have an feeling that some old WUA settings is corrupted or old settings block the "Install Software Updates" in TS.
in wuahandler.log I can found this

Hello,
We have SCCM R2 CU4 in our environment.
During software update deployments, we noticed some Windows server 2012 and 2008 R2 (9 out of 90) are listed as compliant but they did not get any updates installed.
When checking details of those clients from deployment status, it will only list one software update with status installed, which is "MS15-044 Security Update for Microsoft Silverlight (KB3056819)", nothing else.
When we login to the client machines, also verified nothing get installed. However, if go to Windows Updates and check online, there are patches available for installation. There is no special pattern in the logs amount those.
The rest of the clients have no issue at all, they all received proper patches and installed normally.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Hi,
Can someone help to sort out a little 'friendly' discussion we have been having here on SCEP policies?
Q1. Do the excluded file and folder settings in a SCEP policy only work during scheduled scans, or scheduledand on demand scans?
Q2. Are the exclusions also taken account of for real-time protection? So if I copy the EICAR test file to an excluded folder, should the SCEP client pop up and tell me it's dealing with it, or ignore it because it's an excluded location? We seem to be getting mixed results...
Thanks.
My automated updates deployed and installed on 7/7/2015, but the Deployment Status for that Update Group did not show any machines as being Compliant until almost a week later. They were all listed under the Unknown category even when the Client showed as Active. I verified the morning after the update install deadline that all the advertised updates did in fact install and reboot all the servers.
Any reason why there would be such a delay in the Deployment Status? This only started happening after updating to R2 SP1.
