Hi,

For the last several weeks the latest Windows 10 update goes through the update process and fails.  

I've run through the troubleshooting guide with no luck.  Also downloaded the current W10 install package onto a thumb drive and it wasn't able to install either.  Doesn't appear to leave a trail in the system event logs as to why.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Afternoon all

I need to update a VMHost which has the correct base install but I need to update it to a newer build. I want to do this manually and as far as I know you can drop the zip file or the folders within the zip file over to the host and run  "esxcli software vib"

Anyone got a really quick, this is how to do it thing?

Thanks all.

I am trying to image one new workstation successfully so I can deploy that image to others. Sysprep has crashed every machine I've touched. Every new machine I run Sysprep on, it no longer boots. It gets a missing Winload.efi error. Should I be disabling Secure Boot before I run Sysprep?

I am running Sysprep from several new Windows 10 machines to get a base image. I patch Windows, install Office then run Sysprep....OOBE - Generalize - Shutdown.

Is there something I'm missing when running Sysprep?

Hello everyone, I got a new install and the user can not find their Adobe Acrobat DC 2015 software, is there a way I can get the serial number from software and download another copy of Acrobat DC 2015 and use that serial number? The user has looked everywhere with no luck of finding the original disk or download but they really don't want to buy another copy.

I have installed SEPM 14.2 in an air-gapped network, and am using the .jdb file to provide signature updates.  When I create a client install file, it keeps giving the error that the signatures are out of date or the signature is is unusable.

I have used cleanwipe to clean up the client install, then recreate the installer files from scratch and try again, but can never get a working client.

I reverted back to SEPM 12.1.6 to test, and it works fine, but unfortunately 12.1.6 is not compatible with the latest versions of win10 so I need to use 14.2.

Any ideas?

Migration Of Exchange 2010 to 2016 questions.  We want to install Exchange 2016 in our 2010 environment for coexistence.  Due to the nature of our organization we need to do it as gradually as possible, minimizing downtime.  

We already did the schema update and other pre-reqs prior.  This weekend we want to run the install, configure scp and urls.  

Besides a couple test users, we don’t want to move any mailboxes yet.  We want to make sure the 2016 To 2013 proxying works first.  

Do we need to configure any send or receive connectors at this point?  We also have many systems that relay off exchange.  Can they be left on 2010 for now?  

Also, I see the OAB needs to be configured on 2016.  Will Exchange 2010 clients use that or only after their mailboxes are migrated?

I'm experiencing issues importing a newly purchased SSL certificate on my app server. I've already imported the intermediate certificate to my local intermediate cert authority store. I'm performing the following:

Access server certificate list => complete certificate request => browse to crt file => input a friendly name => choosing personal (as opposed to web hosting) for store location => ok
Navigate to website => edit bindings => the certificate I just added is not listed in dropdown of available SSL certs
Navigate back to server certs => the certificate that I added is no longer there

Open mmc => certificate => local computer => personal store => I’m able to view the certificate in question there

Trying to install Windows 2012 on an HP Proliant G8.  Server has an HP Array 420i and 8 1.2tb sas drives.  I create a partition and use both the intelligent provisioning and just a boot DVD.  Get to the Windows portion, select the partition and get the error message "Windows cannot be installed to this disk. This computer's hardware may not support booting to this disk. Ensure that the disk's controller is enabled in computer's BIOS menu".  I have changed to AHCI and are still experiencing an issue.  Any suggestions?

I have a CentOS 7.7-1908 clean install on a sever.  I was having trouble with YUM updating packages and I attempted to clear out the broken YUM records and start fresh.  I made it worse, and now the server isn't working at all.  I keep getting a message:

[root@localhost ~]# yum update
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
There are no enabled repos.
 Run "yum repolist all" to see the repos you have.
 To enable Red Hat Subscription Management repositories:
     subscription-manager repos --enable <repo>
 To enable custom repositories:
     yum-config-manager --enable <repo>


Only there are no repositories in the list when I try to run the suggest commands.  Is there any way to get this back without wiping the server and starting over?  Tried some research but nothing seems to work.

I have been running vmware 5.5 esxi on a Dell T410 forever in a home lab environment.   Is it possible to in vmware 6.7 on a Dell T410 server?
