Ourdatabase contains single file for filename nis_full.exe. This file belongs to product Microsoft Malware Protection and was developed by company Microsoft Corporation. This file has description AntiMalware Definition Update. This is executable file. You can find it running in Task Manager as the process nis_full.exe.
Next, we need to create the package to deploy the definition updates. Similar to the steps above, launch the wizard, name the package and browse to the source location (use the root of the folder that has folders for both the 32 and 64 bit definition binaries), and then choose standard program. Here, we will need to create separate programs (4 total), with one each for definitions (mpam-fe.exe), and Network Inspection System (NIS) (nis_full.exe), for both 32 and 64 bit. There are no switches required for these binaries. Also, set the package to run normal, whether or not a user is logged on, and run with administrative rights. Leave the requirements page as is, and finish the wizard.
Update Note: If the Endpoint Protection client is embedded in the OS image then delete from the image, the following registry keys that are unique to the machine that was used for developing the image during SYSPREP process.
Hi, I have a question about deployments and non-compliant systems. Since we updated to 2012 R2 I have had many patching deployments fail with non-compliant messages. If I bring up the deployment it shows many are installed and many are Required.
If for example I am deploying a IE 11 patch to Windows 7 machines that does not have IE 11 installed yet would that give the non-compliant error because it cannot install the IE11 patch? This would also apply to .Net 4 and 4.5 for example. We deploy Software Update Groups based on Operating Systems so every month I search for every patch non-expired and not superseded for the OS in question and then make the software update group based on that. I figured if the software update group had a patch for a product like IE 11 that was not installed on the device yet it just would not install it.
I would like to have a report for the enforcement states of multiple deployment ID's. I have tried manipulating the default "States 1 - Enforcement states for a deployment" to have multiple default values but have not succeeded in getting the report to run.
In our Software Updates we have multiple collections targeting specific groups of computers and then we have specific update groups within specific date ranges deployed to those collections. In some cases I have multiple deployments targeting the same collection and thus the want to have a single report for the enforcement status of multiple deployment ID's.
My problem today is that I noticed my Exchange 2007 server is not updating it's antivirus definitions. This server is running Windows Server 2008 (notR2). Inside my Configuration Manager console, under Monitoring --> Deployments it shows this server under the "Unknown" tab, but the details say "Client check passed/Active." This is the only server in my organization having this problem.
There were no configuration changes and the SUP ran daily without issues. I went to possibly remove the SUP role to reinstall I found the remove role option is greyed out. I restarted the WSUS site which is separate and rebooted the server trying a manual software updates sync and still got the same result. Can anyone help?
We run Remedy ARS user version 7.6.04 SP4, and Contact Center Express for our call center. Recently one of our Desktop support people had a complaint that Remedy's screen pop was no longer bringing up the list of accounts when a customer calls.
In troubleshooting, we found that this was only happening with new deployments where SCCM was used. When we compared the registry's of two machines, we found that none of the Remedy.User keys had been created which work to create an activeX link between Remedy and the screen pop when an incoming call arrives.
Our Global engineering group is blaming Remedy, but I'm thinking it has something to do with the fact that Remedy had to be tweaked in order to install on 64bit windows in the first place. Any help would be appreciated.
Through my research, I've seen where SCCM writes to different parts of the registry dependent on whether its a 32 or 64bit application, but haven't found anything where it just doesn't seem to write the keys at all.
I pushed software updates to a collection consisting of 116 computers. All of these machines are using the same agent policies, and are nearly identical in hardware and are all running Windows 7 Pro SP1 64-bit. The majority of machines returned success after the users or the Agent executed the system restart. However, 16 machines returned error 0x87D00667, which I have discovered means:
"No current or future service window exists to install software updates"
I configured the deployment not to use a maintenance window, but to install immediately after the available time. I configured the available time to be about a week-long period of time.
The majority of machines behaved correctly and didn't wait for a maintenance window. However these 16 machines decided that the updates couldn't be installed outside of a maintenance window. Why would nearly identical machines with the same policies behave differently?
So I am setting up to deploy SCEP 2012 4.5.0216.0 during my OSD task sequence. I am following the guidelines laid out by the blog post: -system-deployment-and-endpoint-protection-client-installation.aspx. I have created a package with the scepinstall.exe, EPAMPolicy.xml, and Install.cmd.
So these things together install SCEP 2012 version 4.5.0216.0 and cancels any definition updates when done installing and when the service first starts up. When the install finishes the client is RED since I cancelled all updates. This is WORKING FINE.
Now I have a package that contains the definition updates "mpam-fe.exe" and "nis_full.exe" as described in the linked blog. Running the proper 32/64 version of the mpam-fe.exe effectively updates the client Anti-malware definitions to the version I have downloaded for that day. The client now turns GREEN. This is WORKING FINE.
The part that is not working is running the Network Inspection Service definitions, "nis_full.exe". It goes right through like it was fine when run manually, but when you check event log you see it put two errors in Event Log. It also is causing my Task Sequence to fail.
I questioned how valid the nis_full.exe was anymore since the blog post is not real new...so I found: It is titled, "How to manually download the latest antimalware definition updates for Microsoft Forefront Client Security, Microsoft Forefront Endpoint Protection 2010 and Microsoft System Center 2012 Endpoint Protection". I verified by downloading using the links given in that article that my files matched hash for hash.
Any assistance is appreciated. Any better way to deploy SCEP during task sequence and definitions WITHOUT scanning for updates during "Install Software Updates" task or letting client go to internet?
I created a new test Security scope, Security Role, created a test Active Directory group and then entered that AD group as a new account name under Security>Administrative users. I added the new Security Role under the Security Roles tab of the Account name (Administrative users) properties and also added the security scope that I created under the Security Scopes tab. I was able to see all the settings I had created/exported in the RBA viewer and everything with the role worked as desired.
I am now looking to clean that up but I don't seem to be able to. I am starting under Administrative Users>Account name and trying to unlink the Security Roles and Security Scopes that listed in those tabs. However, remove and deletes on this stuff are all greyed out. If I add another role to the Security Role tab I can then remove that, but I cannot remove this 1 particular one. The result is that I cannot remove the custom Security Scope, Security Role and ultimately the Administrative user.
We are distributing software updates during the weekends. Based on the logs everything goes as planned, software updates are installed and the machines reboot. However, when a user logs on after the weekend they receive a notification of a pending reboot.
Hello all, machine is Windows 7 Enterprise SP1 x64 running newly downloaded Office 2013 ProPlus w/ SP1 direct from MS. I did not install the SP1 myself, I used the complete ISO off the volume license center that includes SP1. Loaded the updated OCT files from -us/download/details.aspx?id=35554 to fix the install glitch as is documented. Installed with customized OCT msp file.
That made me question do I actually have Office 2013 SP1 installed. Checked the version number as documented "In order to determine whether SP1 is already installed, you can look for the program version in the list of installed programs in the Programs and Features Control Panel item. If SP1 is installed, the version will be 15.0.4569.1506 or higher."
Back before our SCCM 2012 migration, when we were still with 2007, our patch management was set up by having a deployment deadline set to now, however, the when was controlled in a future time of our choosing via MW. That always worked fine.
Fast forward to SCCM 2012. We wanted to replicate the same setup just to try and keep things simple for our operations team, so we created an ADR with an availability and a deadline set to ASAP. This ADR runs daily. So what I am expecting to happen is the following: everyday, my ADR runs checking for updates. On patch tuesday, it will download and set my updates in the SU Group with an availability and deadline in the past. When I really want to have them installed, I set my MW to a time in the future such as a weekend day.
