If there is a Servicing Stack update, install this first!
If there is a Windows Servicing Stack Update (SSU) available, install this one first as it blocks other updates to appear in the client! There are a bunch of upvotes of this “bug”to get fixed, filed by the SCCM community here.When you install (or deinstall) patches manually, or any other way outside SCCM, the client gets confused because his “supposed-to-be” -state differs from reality and simply stops working (in my experience).There can be a couple of reasons for this behavior: I also noticed that any WMI query against the SCCM namespace will then run forever. Nice, nothing we have to do! Unfortunately, this does not mean that there are no updates available! I’ve learned that the SCCM client is VERY sensitive and can get stuck in a “I am just going to do nothing”-state. Sometimes the SCCM client does not show any updates. Please read this post for the complete overview Monitor the Actions using the CM applet in Control Panel, or navigate to C:\Windows\CCM\Logs and watch logs appear.This post is a part of my series on Patching SQL Server AG using SCCM and Powershell The fix is to disable metering on the current network connection (which will often be a wireless connection). You’ll notice, the Client Actions will not update (however, the C:\Windows\ccmsetup\logs\ccmsetup.log will say successfully installed):Ĭhecking logs in the C:\Windows\CCM\Logs folder, you’ll see warnings and errors referring to metered network: That’s right, a metered connection will often render unusual, anomalous results with the Software Center and CM agent, depending on how you have the agent configured for users.
Many things can cause missing Action functions (like corrupted SMS WMI and network account issues), but…something that may be overlooked is network meter.
