Configuring the SCCM agent install during OSD
Hi! Quick question, I need to configure the default installation of the configuration manager agent to point to my slp and assign a site code. I have tried doing the following: 1. Edited the package Microsoft Configuration Manager Client Upgrade 4.0 All and the Advanced Client Silent Upgrade program witht he following command line: CCMSETUP.EXE /noservice SMSSITECODE=MYSITE SMSSLP=MyServer.MyDomain.com But it does not seem to work.. I need this for work group machines that are not part of any domain. As of now I have to log onto the machine and reinstall with the command line above. The strange thing is that it works when I do it manually but not during deployment.. What am I doing wrong here? Thanks :)

My recommendation is to leave the package unchanged. Instead, insert theese settings in the task sequence under the step ("Setup Windows and ConfigMgr") as "installation properties"

Another idea is to just use the SMSClientInstallProperties TS action variable. Create this variable on the collection you use for OSD and set the value to the settings you want. The benefit of this is that you don't have to hard-code the TS to a specific site and you could use the same TS at a child primary if you wanted to. Depending on your environment this may or may not be useful to you. I tend to use the TS action variables whenever I can rather than editing the TS just because it provides more flexibility. Mark.
