SIMS won't install via Solus 3

lol, under the Solus3 desktop icon it says the word deployment.

Most deployment issues I have come across are DNS related

 

Yup, same here. Flushing the DNS cache on the SOLUS server usually does the trick for us. Also, if the Group Policy that sets up Windows Firewall rules for SOLUS on the client hasn't kicked in yet, that will prevent a successful deployment.

our local sims support are now saying its not suppose to push sims out and solus is just a sims update tool and you have to manually install Sims on new machines.

Talking rubbish!

 

I was under the impression that the Agent not returning the Agent Version number was a .Net Framework issue. Solus 3.12 requires .Net 4.5.2 minimum to work properly. If you've upgraded from 3.10 to 3.12, this might explain why you're getting the issues all of a sudden etc.

 

Also, if the agents are reporting back etc however, rebuilt machines aren't automatically deploying SIMS when you re-add them back to SOLUS. A quick fix is to go Environment > Targets > Clients, remove the PC from the list (doesn't uninstall the agent etc). Then Add > Choose Clients > Agents and re-add the PC. Seems to clear the history and the agent will generally then install SIMS as required.

Thank you updated to 4.6.2 and all working supprised that it’s not mentioned in some release notes somewhere.
