UPDATE: john marcum sent me a kind email to let me know about a problem he ran into with preloadpkgonsite.exe in the new SCCM Toolkit V2 where under certain conditions, packages will not uncompress. if you are using the v2 toolkit, PLEASE read this blog post before proceeding. here’s a scenario that came up on the mssms@lists.myitforum.com mailing list. when confronted with a situation of large packages and wan links, it’s generally best to get the data to the other location without going over the wire. in this case, 75gb. :/ the “how” you get the files there is really not the most important thing to worry about. once they’re there and moved to the appropriate location, preloadpkgonsite.exe is required to install the compressed source files. once done, a status message goes back to the parent server which should stop the upstream server from copying the package source files over the wan to the child site. anyway, if it’s a relatively small amount of packages, you can
Yes Marcus, it really is publishing. All the edits are wrapped up and it's in production. The book will be published in time to show it off at Tech Ed in June, with time to spare. :)
ReplyDeleteMarcus, for all the world to know, you were a rock star on this. Rock-solid material and A+ reliability. I hope we get a change to work together again!
