[sccm 2007] Using MDT Roles with SCCM 2007 R3 - Help!!

[craigg]

Hello!

 

I have an SCCM server with MDT intergrated which is working as it should.. The one thing I can not get my head arround is getting the SCCM Windows Deployment Task Sequence to install the Roles - Which in my case contain applications.

 

It is picking up things like Computer Name from the database just not the above.

 

I'm pretty sure my CustomSettings.ini is OK - but here it is...

 

 

[settings]
Priority=CSettings, CRoles, RApps, RPackages, Default

[Default]
DoCapture=NO
ComputerBackupLocation=NONE
BDEInstallSuppress=YES
TimeZone=85
TimeZoneName=GMT Standard Time
KeyboardLocale=0809:00000809
UserLocale=en-GB
InputLocale=0809:00000809
SystemLocale=en-GB
UILanguage=en-US 

WSUSServer=http://luke.cadcol.ac.uk.local:8530


[CSettings]
SQLServer=sqrll
Database=MDT
Netlib=DBNMPNTW
SQLShare=logs$
Table=ComputerSettings
Parameters=UUID, AssetTag, SerialNumber, MacAddress
ParameterCondition=OR

[CRoles]
SQLServer=sqrll
Database=MDT
Netlib=DBNMPNTW
SQLShare=logs$
Table=ComputerRoles
Parameters=UUID, AssetTag, SerialNumber, MacAddress
ParameterCondition=OR

[RApps]
SQLServer=sqrll
Database=MDT
Netlib=DBNMPNTW
SQLShare=logs$
Table=RoleApplications
Parameters=Role
Order=Sequence

 

 

Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks guys!

Hmmm... I cant see anything obvious. I know its not an answer - but you could just use native SCCM, ad groups and collection filtering/variables to acheive the same thin in your task sequence. Thats what i do. Sub collections based on AD groups - with the TS detecting the security group and skipping or installing; or straight adverts to collections.

Thanks for the reply.

 

That seems like the best idea at the moment. I was just trying to avoid re-doing what i'd already done with MDT!

 

 

I'll let you know how I get on!
