Post patching , SCCM missed to check the Registry or DLL setting on servers to confirm whether a particular patch is applied successfully or not . Without checking this , we cannot confirm the patch compliance report.

Due to which lot of vulnerabilities exists .

SCCM WSUS sync retry

$
0
0

I'm currently having a hard time trying to get my WSUS working, but within the wsyncmgr log file, it schedules the next attempt 60 minutes later.

Is there a way to change this period? Even when I try to force another sync it just doesn't do anything for an hour, and this is a real pain. I'm sure there's a way to amend this rather than just waiting for the 60 minutes to tick over.

Next scheduled sync is a retry sync at blah blah blah

Please advise.

Thanks!

2020-01 Cumulative Update KB4534271 - Will not install using SCCM 12

2020-01 Cumulative Update KB4534271 - Will not install using SCCM 12.  The update will fail using SCCM but install fine if I download from Windows Update Catalog and install on server.

The update does take about 30 mins to install.  I was thinking the update will not install b/c of how long it takes?  Is there a setting within SCCM that controls update time?  The update will push to the server fine but fails during the install when using SCCM.

Site Server Certificate Expired - How do I renew

$
0
0

I have SCCM 2012 on one server.  The site server signing certificate has expired - I can see this in Administration, Security, Certificates.  I can't see it/work out where it is in the Certificates snap in of MMC.

This is causing errors in the SMS_MP_CONTROL_MANAGER

I do not have a CA on my network.  How do I renew the certificate?

Do I need to add the CA role to my server?

 Hi

As you may know , MS has recently removed from WSUS, WU and MS Catalogue the KB4524244. After my sccm was synched now this patch is marked as expired (icon with black X). 

My question is how can i get an accurate report of the clients that has this patch installed ? I cant use ComplianceStatus tables as the patch is not Required (and therefore is gone for these tables) anymore but the patch is still installed .

Thanks in advance 


SCCM MS Patching Question - Deadline Behavior

$
0
0

We deployed some patches and set a deadline date/time. We usually deploy starting Monday 8AM and set the deadline of Friday 8PM on the "Scheduling" page.

Also on the "User Experience" page under Deadline behavior we check both options forSoftware updates installation and System restart (if necessary)

Going off of Microsoft documentation below the User Experience checks we do shouldn't really matter unless our workstations are in a Maintenance Window which they are not. 

So questions 1 - Do we need to check these or does it not matter either way.

Question 2 - We recently had a patch get out to users and reboot prior to the deadline. This has not happened before and we fear these checks my have something to do with it. Do they or could this be an odd issue we are seeing?

Deadline behavior: Specify the behaviors when the software update deployment reaches the deadline outside of any defined maintenance windows. The options include whether to install the software updates, and whether to perform a system restart after installation.

 Note

This applies only when the maintenance window is configured for the client device. If no maintenance window is defined on the device, the update of the installation and restart will always happen after the deadline.

Automatic reboots not happening

What might be the cause of a 0 value (0x00000000) in the Reboot subkey under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\SMS\Mobile Client\Reboot Management\RebootData?  When a reboot is called for, as in during a patch or feature update install, there should be a hexadecimal value in that key, but some are failing, apparently because of that 0 value.  Any suggestions as to what might set that value to 0?  Thanks!

[RESOLVED] SCCM Current Branch 1906 - Compliance Report for Application and Windows Updates

$
0
0

Specs: 

SCCM Current Branch 1906

Windows 2016 x64 Enterprise - Build 1607

Microsoft SQL 2016 Standard

Symptoms:

About 2 weeks ago, around Nov 12th 2019 endpoints and server have stopped reporting their compliance.

Essentially, I can deploy patches and software to systems just fine and they install.

However when I check on the monitoring side via SCCM the packages do not get updated with compliant, in progress and whatnot, I'm completely blind as to what's going on.

Network side, I've verified via our SiEM verified of there's any traffic and none of the network firewalls are blocking and neither are endpoints and server blocking the traffic.

I check on the server and I don't really see any major errors...

I'm kind of dumbfounded at the moment as to what could be the cause... my reports are just not updating.

Also, as a result, let's say I build a compliance baseline config and deploy it to a collection and then build a collection based on the said compliance, no systems are appearing in the list...

Also for testing purposes, I clone one of my application package and re-deployed it and I'm not getting any status report even though I'm able to install and remove the package on the system target.

Please advise...

SCCM Test environment doesn't set WSUS server registry key

$

Hi everyone,

I have a testenvironment where the WUServer, WUStatusServer is set on clients and they get Windows updates Via SCCM. They are compliant.

In the same environment i have some test servers on which i've deployed the client and all update settings are configured.

The only thing is that the 'Windows Update' key is missing (and the server settings), after installing the client. 

I have looked through all setitngs, but i cannot seem to find the issue. 

Which proces sets these reg keys. Is it SCCM and where must i look, or is a group policy? Or WSUS (role?

Some articles say SCCM doesn't set them. And some articles say don't set a Group policy because it will intervene with SCCM client settings.

Why are clients getting the settings and my test servers don't. I don't see a group policy with these settings?

Many thanks!

Kind regards, 

Andre

Hi, We have lot of the user are now working from home because of the Corona virus but we just start developing march updates.

We dont have cloud DP yet but we do have sccm within our domain.

My question is that is they anyway I can develop windows updates to user machine even if the user not on vpn, Can I setup sccm in way that user machine receive the policy but they download the updates from Microsoft rather then our DP's

If I thick this option in the download setting will that force vpn machine to download updates from microsoft.
