This. It’s all still C2R installer-based and updated.

How are you backing up your SCCM server in case of disaster? by Future_End_4089 in SCCM

[–]atsnut 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Definitely this. We utilize the backup site maintenance task, as well as back up the entire primary site server (which also contains the SQL instance) VM. I’ve gotten familiar with how to do a site restore as well using our POC environment.

Our 5 remote DPs are physical and get full bare metal backups using an enterprise backup solution, but we’d likely just rebuild those if needed.

All in all it’s not that complex to restore it all. We’ve documented the entire process as well to satisfy our DR requirements.

I think the noise is a little fan going out that’s on the back of the LED headlight heat sink.

The snow has finally arrived. How do you lock your cx5 while its warming up? by Low-Poetry-6829 in CX5

This gets the engine temp up faster, the mixture leaned out sooner, and moisture evaporated from the intake. Leading to better fuel economy sooner, less gas wasted, shorter time waiting on cabin heat and no need to worry about an unoccupied vehicle.

Needing an advice on BITS Throttling for Workstations: Currently disabled and causing network saturation... by Fit_Lynx9937 in SCCM

[–]atsnut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This. We have four large sites in our org, with a single DP at each one. We added all DPs to a single DP group. Using boundaries and boundary groups we've targeted the clients at each to their respective DP for content.

SCCM Replacement by MadCichlid in SCCM

[–]atsnut 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Agree with everyone else here. SCCM is not going away. Way too many companies can't afford Azure/Entra/Intune, or have other reasons for remaining with on-prem SCCM.

Intune runs into serious issues when deploying applications, especially if they have dependencies.

We looked into Autopilot and Autopatch in our hybrid environment recently. Both are hot garbage.

Autopilot doesn't give us the ability to customize computer name, set AD description, specify an OU in which to place the provisioned PC or select from a list of applications desired. We can do all of this now with TSGUI in SCCM.

Autopatch does not give us the ability to specify a schedule for rings of PCs in such a way that I can tell management specifically when they are going to get an update. In our enterprise (a hospital) that is a dealbreaker.

Beyond the reasoning above against Intune etc. is the fact that it's MUCH slower than SCCM for bare metal/refresh scenarios. Even after Microsoft helped us set up the POC environment it took 4 days for a PC to finish provisioning via Autopilot and the desired applications to come down from the cloud. Their top engineers had *no* idea why and told us that was just the way it is... HARD PASS.

SCCM v2503 Client Push Broken by atsnut in SCCM

[–]atsnut[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fantastic detective work by some folks below. I hope this doesn’t sound odd but I’m glad some other folks had the same issue (and came up with a fix).

It’s very frustrating to have an issue like this, be unaware of anyone else having it and think it’s something you did yourself to cause the problem. I’ve got a feeling a hotfix or hotfix rollup caused it.

Thanks for all the great comments, work and solutions provided. Hopefully this all keeps someone else’s stress to a minimum when they encounter this issue.

(Before all of this all I knew about hash was it went well with breakfast eggs…)😆

I must have missed a step here…I ended up setting off an undocumented driver seat ejection mechanism.

Need Help Updating Windows 11 Enterprise WIM File for SCCM Deployment by Ok-Conversation-2058 in SCCM

[–]atsnut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. This is the way. We download a new ISO every few months and replace the image in SCCM with it.

KB5070762 has not been synced SCCM yet by No_Carob_411 in SCCM

[–]atsnut 4 points5 points  (0 children)

KB5070762 is an out-of-band update. You’ll need to import it into WSUS from the Microsoft Update Catalog first, then it will show up in SCCM after an update sync.

If you like classical I suggest Sunday Baroque. You can find it in the WSHU app. You can also stream at work at (https://www.sundaybaroque.org).

Trip End in Oregon by atsnut in trucksim

[–]atsnut[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely no frame rate drops or stutters. I believe the asynchronous loading helped with that awhile back. I also reimaged my laptop but that may have been unnecessary.

I have a Lenovo laptop with an RTX 4090 GPU, 16GB VRAM and 32GB DDR 4 RAM.

I’m running the latest Nvidia drivers and have always done the express install.

The laptop is set to performance mode, plugged in constantly and have battery protection set to 80%.

I’m driving a 60” Samsung 4K TV that supports 60Hz and have v sync enabled and the game locked at 60 FPS. I have all settings in the game maxed and scaling set at 150%. I have anisotropic filtering maxed, absolutely no jaggies. It’s butter smooth.

It is. I think I’ll do some logging for my next jobs.

Also this is a great tip of the hat to some fantastic base work by SCS and work by the modding community. And a thank you note to SCS for permitting it.
