[1903, au] SCCM Windows 10 Servicing

[Norphy]

In preparation for the summer, I am investigating methods of updating our installed versions of Windows 10 1709 to something more current. I'm thinking it's either going to be 1809 or 1903.

 

My preferred method would be to use the Windows 10 Servicing Plans inside SCCM. I have created some collections, downloaded the required updates from WSUS and put them into SCCM, created a servicing plan, created a package to put the resulting updates into, distributed those packages to the DPs and deployed the servicing plan to my collection. The clients which are members of that collection then pick up the deployment and start to install the OS update. So far, so good.

 

The issue is that with the VMs I've been testing it on, the installation fails after an hour with an error code which suggests that the process is timing out. The SCCM console also reports that it's timing out as well. I have gone to the properties of the update in the SCCM console and changed the Maximum Run Time from 60 to 360 minutes but the installer still kills itself after one hour.

 

There are ways around this, I can still use a task sequence to update the operating system but I'd prefer not to if I can avoid it as using the service plans inside the SCCM console gets me the pretty stats.

 

What have I missed?

what error code are you getting and message

From the setupact.log file in c:\$windows.~BT\Sources\Panther:

which is exactly one hour after the installation starts.

 

 

SCCM console reports the 0X87D0070C error code and says that the installation times out. It looks to me that SCCM is killing the installation after 1 hour, despite me changing the setting. Using SCCM 1902.

 

Maximum run time on the update is set to 360 minutes:

Could this be the cause...

The following would be worth doing too (if you haven't already).
