An SMS package doesn't appear on a lower level DP, what do you do?

  • Make sure you've selected the DP to receive the package
  • Check the status messages (SMS_DISTRIBUTION_MANAGER is one component to check)
  • Check the logs on the SITE server (sms\logs\distmgr.log)

Reading the SCCM Client GUID

Recently I encountered an issue with the SCCM client GUID missing from the  %windir%\SMSCFG.INI file. We wanted to write a script to put the GUID back, so I was asked how to read the SCCM Client GUID from a script or command line.
