SCCM 07 Training Begins....

Tomorrow I start my five-day training course entitled: Plan Deploy and Managing MS SCCM 07.  My knowledge of SMS / SCCM consist of the last seven months of my career.  However, within those seven months I have learned what I feel is an astonishing amount of knowledge regarding SMS / SCCM due to the help of one Sherry Kissinger.

So what to expect on this site?  My goal with this site is to have a place to share my daily experiences and thoughts regarding my journey into the depths of SCCM.

Welcome

I expect that we can exchange many experiences about our daily experiences in SMS and SCCM.

Good Luck on your training...

The first day of training was good.....except I was the only one in the class that couldn't get the ccmsetup.msi file to install on my client via group policy.  I double checked everything and also ran rsop.msc on the client machine and was able to verify that the policy was accepted on my machine.

Well when I came in this morning the computers had all restarted due to Windows updates and as such I lost all my work and so I had to redo all the steps yet again...however this time the ccmsetup.msi did run and I am happy to report that my client is now talking to my primary site. :)  I'll start to use more SCCM lingo as I learn more.

Nice.  Maybe you can return to work and convice the powers-that-be to deploy the client via GPO now.  There were political reasons to deploy the client the way they are doing it now; but I think those political reasons have diminished over the years.  If you can deploy via GPO, see if you can implement a Health script; not just Client Push.  There's a really good one on Dudeworks (for SMS2003); but I think it should still apply to ConfigMgr.  I could ask the Dude if you get permission to pursue that angle.

Oh, um, *ahem*, ConfigMgr, if you please.  SCCM is copyrighted by someone else, so we're technically not supposed to use that acronym.   :o)
