Ya my MDT task sequence didn't show up in my 2103 branch, thankfully i found a solution Administration->Site configuration-->Sites, select site and on ribbon click Hierarchy Settings and uncheck the approval extensions then restart SCCM and the mdt task sequence should appear. Just fyi if you didn't already know.

I was having issues with the Application Discovery failing, just like in your video at 41:33. However my applications were not getting installed. Looking at the AppDiscovery.log it was failing to open the "AppDiscoveryresult.xml.app". I found a resolution for this and no longer receive the Application Discovery warning. Open the UDI Wizard Designer and under "Page Library" open "Deployment Readiness - ConfigScanBareMetal" --> Highlight "Application Discovery" --> Click Edit --> For the "Read Configuration File" parameter put in "%DeployRoot%\Scripts\UDIWizard_Config.xml.app" (without the quotes).

OMG! Thank you so much for this. After many hours googling and looking through log files, I randomly find this post. It solved the issue completely - this and also that the collection needs to be limited to All Unknown Computers. Makes perfect sense, the smsts.log shows the identification of the apps chosen to install but does not report if they installed or not because it's a separate UDI process. Same goes for the Discovery.log and, strangely, the zticoalesce.log. The 'trigger' to install the apps is UDIWizard_Config.xml.app and if the path is wrong the installs will never run.

@Hollywood-xb7xm 5 жыл бұрын

Another great video. I am wondering now that the default UDI Config XML file is over written, how would one now create a second UDI say for either the refresh or replace UDI? What file name would that be saved to?

You would only overwrite the one on the package source path you created. New wizards will use the one from program files.

Does this process work when you do not have physical access (hosted VM) to the main site, but use a centrally located distribution point instead? After installing MDT on the DP I cannot see the TS option for MDT, but after installing on the main site I was able to create the TS using your guide, but I am seeing socket connection errors in the STMS log.

Two questions: 1. Why do we have to deploy applications for them to be visible in UDI designer template? Why can't it just read the applications available on SCCM? 2. You didn't enter the password in the UDI designer, then how will it authenticate the account to add the name to domain?

Thank you for this video! Quick question, we are having issues with the Application portion of the UDI wizard. It seems as though our TS is failing at the "Convert list to two digits" step. We were able to add our SCCM environment to the UDI Wizard designer and pulled in several Applications that were advertised to our dummy MDT collection. When I open the referenced script (ZTICoalesce.wsf), it doesn't seem to have a parameter that takes the "/CoalescePattern:Applications" that is being passed. Any ideas?
