  • I can see that the cat is out of the bag....

    Ok, I have been talking about some site changes for The Blogcast Repository for a while now. However, for those who have asked, I have been providing links to the new test site. I have been working after hours and doing what I can (in my limited knowledge of web site design) to get things finished. I...

  • More on ITMU from Microsoft

    I wanted to pass along the final email I received from Microsoft in regard to the issues I experienced while doing a site reset during the install of KB901034. “ The developers have confirmed that the hotfix uses preinst /stopsite.

  • How to Install the SMS 2003 ITMU

    The documentation on the ITMU is fairly straight forward, but there is a lot to read and test. I decided to take some notes during the deployment and share the steps I took from start to finish.

  • SMS 2003 ITMU Upgrade Working Great

    I installed the ITMU the other day and deployed the upgraded SMS advanced client to all my client's workstations. The install went very well (after a major issue) and we have good reports.

  • ITMU Upgrade tonight....

    I have tested and checked my work and tonight is the moment of truth. 7,856 clients will upgrade to the new SMS 2003 Advanced Client at 2:00 am CST. Funny thing is that I can tell that some are nervous, but not me. I have never felt uncomfortable pushing out a upgrade or patch to the entire organization...

  • Interested in learning the ITMU with me?

    I was thinking, (no jokes allowed) it would be fun to learn the ITMU with anyone who wants to learn the upgrade process. If you have not implemented the ITMU, send me an email and we can learn it together. Perhaps we can do a few conference calls and do the steps together. Perhapse a “joint”...

  • Security Updates Fail to Reboot

    I have been having an issue every month where many of my clients do not reboot after installation. The status of many of the computers remains at “reboot pending”. If you have this issue, look at the PatchUIMonitor log and look for the following error. System reboot request InitiateSystemShutdown...
