great work Dude. I just saw you over my LinkedIn. It has been a good experience talking to you today afternoon. It was enriching
Hi Anoop,
I saw your query (SCCM package PreLoad or Cache all the package content to PCS is possible to reduce bandwidth usage while downloading the package from a remote DP) in Microsoft Social Technet (http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/configmgrsetup/thread/78a33d96-37c1-4d07-a35d-0fac72665901/) because I am trying to find out if it is possible. Were you able to find a way to pre-cache a package (only one package) to a client pc?
Hi Rhene – Pre-cache package (only one package)is not a good practice as per industry expert. It’s always better to have some SCCM extension software’s like Adaptive Onesite or SMS Nomad.
Hi Anoop,
Good to see you. I need some help to finalize SCCM 2012 deployment. Problem with Win update and client installing

Very good work. This site is invaluable and I will visit often.
Hi Anoop, You have done a great work here documenting stuff for SCCM. I would be really thankful if you can help me for some SCCM 2012 stuff on which I am stuck for a long time now.
1) I need to install a vbscript which installs an MSI, then gives an input box to the user to input details and then create a file in the application folder. The script runs fine and I have tested it manually. It also worked fine in SCCM 2007. In SCCM 2012, we created an application and pointed to this vbs file. The application runs but there is no input box which comes and the script is waiting for input. I have tried various options in SCCM program settings like Maximized, Normal viewing etc. But still does not work. Please can you point to the right direction.
2) I need to run an .iss file with setup.exe and it is failing with SCCM 2012. I created a .bat file/.cmd file to run the command and install it but it fails every time.
Your help in both of these will be really helpful.
Thanks,
Piyush

Hello Anup,
I have been looking at some of your articles about Adaptive and 1E products. Very interesting ones and think valuable information to many out there who is looking to deploy SCCM DP’s at branch level. I have few question about SCCM 2012 capabilities. Hope you can provide some insight in to this.
With changes in SCCM 2012 we can have up to 250 DP’s per PM site, is there a limit or any other issues you foresee with a configuration where more than 1000 DPs deployed in the field with appropriate PM sites.
Putting systems into sleep mode at a specific time and scheduling a daily wakeup. The default power management capabilities of SCCM are unable to set a specific time for a system to enter sleep mode. Is there a script or add on component that can be used to facilitate scheduled sleep and wakeup function .
How can we enable PXE boot functionality on a Branch SCCM 2012 DP that is running Windows 7? – I am exploring the features of TFTP client to do this and like to know if you have any recommendations.
Hi Anoop,
I have started working in SCCM 2007 since couple of months and this site and your blogs on technet is very valuable .
Thanks for sharing your knowledge .
Hi Anoop, Can you please forward me SCCM 2007 to 2012 migration reference guide.
Mailed you !!
Thanks, There are couple of issues. i’m installing SP1 now. It recognize all devices and users. Configuration Manager is installed on client’s PC but SCCM status shows client installed “No”. When I deploy a client nothing happens. WMI is allowing via GP. Win FW is disabled currently for testing purpose. Cong mngr properties–>Action has only 2 items listed as Machine policy…..& User policy.
