MattDLEA Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 Bit of a strange one I have a GP for our 2 simple install that contains about 20+msi's All assigned in the computer config software settings. GP is at domain level ( was lazy and didnt know better when I started) Security filtering I have Authenticated users. ran gpupdate / force a few times on local computer, logged on as domain admin restarted * 5 times still nothing deployed. This is on a windows 8.1 surface pro I have 2 simple on other surface pro's dont know why this one is different
Oaktech Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 Is the operation timing out processing the GPO? What does the error log say about matters? I'm not an expert in GPO, but I've never put more than 5 in a GPO without their being some sort of detrimental effect.
fairm010 Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 Run RSOP.MSC to see if the device is picking up the GPO. Then look in the event viewer for any clues as to why its failing.
LeMarchand Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 Shouldn't the filtering be a computer-based one? I normally use Domain Computers unless it needs more precise targeting.
tmoon-mint Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 Could be caused by a slow link. If they are applying policy on very poor A/G wireless then the policy will most likely be skipped. You can change what is determined as "slow" in the policy as well.
FN-GM Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 Switch config could be one. For a cisco switch make sure spanning-tree portfast is set on the port
Oaktech Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 Shouldn't the filtering be a computer-based one? I normally use Domain Computers unless it needs more precise targeting. As you say, unless it needs more precise targeting... I've always just used authenticated users because as far as I was aware a computer account in AD was an authenticated user. 1
MattDLEA Posted February 10, 2015 Author Posted February 10, 2015 rsop is picking up an error. Software installation did not complete install is pending and awaiting reboot. gp will attempt to apply the settings the next time the computer is restarted.

Software installation did not complete install is pending and awaiting reboot. gp will attempt to apply the settings the next time the computer is restarted. I'd have a butchers in the Event Viewer then to see why it is failing.
MattDLEA Posted February 10, 2015 Author Posted February 10, 2015 Ended up adding a new temp GP that set Always wait for the network at computer startup and logon as disabled Specify start up policy processing wait time enabled and set to 45 seconds. This finally gave the machine time to get it installed
