What errors exactly are you getting in the ccm.log or ccmsetup.log? Post a snip it of the log file.

The ports you have listed are not all the ports required. Do you test wbemtest using the local system account?

Hello Garth,

Thank you for promt reply.

By 'local system' do you mean to wbemtest under local system admin? (unfortunately i dont have local admin credentials ,neither allowed to create one)

My domain admin group been added to Administrator group on both client and SCCM server.


Please let know if you got any clue from the above log.

To execute wbemtest as the local system account, use this trick.

I was just looking at this error log again, Are you connecting to the Client using FQDN or NetBIOS name only?

usingFQDN.  We have working DNS setup. Don't see any dns specific issues.
September 8th, 2015 9:38am

You can see from the error message that it is using the NetBIOS name. Try connecting to the client using just he NetBIOS name.

Hello Garth,

Added host entry in host file and flushed dns from my sccm server. but still from the ccm log i could see that while connecting to admin$ it is using FQDN and while connecting to WMI it is using NetBIOS name.

To be clear, you added the NetBIOS name to the Host file?

If so then you are out of options and need to contact Microsoft Support (CSS), they will work with you to solve this issue.
