Installation properties of client installation
Hi, My question is regarding the client installation and the parameters which we pass during the client installation. I am passing these parameters: SMSSLP=SCCM01 SMSMP=SCCM01 FSP=SCCM01 I also want to patch the client with (KB2509007) Currently, I use SMSSLP=SCCM01 SMSMP=SCCM01 FSP=SCCM01 when I do the install on a reference machine and capture the image. When I deploy the captured image I then pass the following installation parameters during "setup windows and configmgr" PATCH="\\sccm01\sms_rc1\Client\i386\hotfix\KB2509007\sccm2007ac-sp2-kb2509007-x86-enu.msp" My first question is am I following the best practice or not? Secondly, is there a possibility that when I define: SMSSLP=SCCM01 SMSMP=SCCM01 FSP=SCCM01 I can also patch the client at on the reference machine. Or do I have to patch everytime when I deploy a machine with the reference image? Thanks in anticipation. Farzan

Hi, Thanks for the response. Actually what I wanted to ask was if I define SMSSLP=sccm01 and a patch, how i can achieve it? Having an issues with the build and capture on the windows updates installing, it sits and then bombs out. I need to include SMSSLP and the PATCH command together. Would this be the correct input for the "Installation Properties"? SMSSLP=server.domain.com;PATCH="%_SMSTSMDataPath%\OSD\MC200004\i386\hotfix\KB2509007\sccm2007ac-sp2-kb2509007-x86-enu.msp"

Hi, In Setup Windows and ConfigMgr task sequence step, site assignment and the default configuration are automatically specified by the task sequence action. You can use this field to specify any additional installation properties to use when you install the client. To enter multiple installation properties, separate them with a space. For detailed information, please reference this technet document: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb693951.aspx Thanks

Hi Quan, Thanks for the reply. Actually my system is on workgroup and for that reason i have to define site locator point. Now my target task seq says that it is downloading 1 of 55 updates but stays there forever. Now that is the reason i want to define site locator and want to patch the client to remove the error when downloading multiple updates... any ideas?
