I have a lab set up for System
Center Configuration Manager 2012 server with SP1 upgraded, set up installation
was successful with all the site system roles updated and configured.
When I try to push ccm client on
Windows 7 machine(x64 bit) through client push installation method it gave
error as “failed to get client version
for sending messages to fsp” along with “Failed to get DP locations as the expected version Error 0x87d00215” these errors were found
on ccm.log file on client machine and on site server ccm.log gave only error as
“enable to connect to WMI root’ which rectified after adding site server
machine name on administrators group on client machine and after editing system
account settings on distribution point.
After doing some search on Google
about this particular error I thought it could be because of the known issue
stated on internet which said “This is a known issue in SP1 when installing the
64bit client. You will need to apply this hotfix to your site server and update
the ConfigMgr installation package on your DP's” hence I have downloaded the
hotfix available for the same from Microsoft website: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2801987 applied the hotfix on
site server machine which updated the client packages then tried to re-push the
client package but it gave the similar errors on ccm log files. I checked
distmgr.log file for to check for any traces there which said “failed to process package CA00000#”
Therefore I had decided to test this
by removing the DP for package assignment hence
1.
Removed the DP role from the Primary Site server –
checked the DistMgr.log for the removal.
- Re-deployed
the DP role to the Primary Site server – checked the DistMgr.Log/ Distribution Point
Configuration State for the installation
Somehow this fixed the issue, it installed
the cm client on windows machine successfully.
