Cannot update to Update Rollup 3 for System Center 2022
Hi, I tried update my DPM 2022 to the latest version. I tried also via Windows Update and manually but both method is unsuccessful. When I tried windows update method I got the following error message: There were some problems installing updates, but we'll try again later. If you keep seeing this and want to search the web or contact support for information, this may help: (0x80070643) For manually update I run this package but the setup wizard didn't show up: dataprotectionmanager-kb5059073_ce4e4e4b8dd358bd0b79e77235e9945dc96131fa.exe I restarted the server as recommended by Microsoft and tried again but not helped for me. My dpm setup: Virtual Machine Windows Server 2022 Standard Language: English Region: Hungarian
Unable to patch Windows Server 2025/24H2
Windows updates will not display in software center for 2025/24H2 clients. Currently running SCCM version 2503 hotfix rollup KB32851084. SCCM client version on test server is 5.00.9135.1013. Test server OS is 24H2 build 2600.2894. I have verified that the 24H2 product is enabled in the software update point configuration and within the ADR. ADR preview shows the 24H2 update (KB5068861). I see KB5068861 under the deployments tab of the test server device. I have a daily maintenance window on the collection, and this shows on the test client within "installation status -->upcoming" tab in software center. I do realize that this hotfix rollup included a fix for 2025 OS. Windows Server 2025 updates use the incorrect Maximum run time value in the properties for the software update component. The value can lead to update installations being incorrectly canceled. I did change the maximum run time for KB5068861 from 10 minutes to 60 minutes. Could this be a metadata related issue with the existing KB that is currently downloaded to SCCM (via WSUS)? I hope I'm not missing something obvious but do welcome an easy resolution if that's the case. Thanks for any suggestions or troubleshooting suggestions.need help with a problem related to the system center
This problem started after the September database server update. I can't access the system center interface to view reports, see devices, check updates, track device status, etc. When I try to open it, I see the attached image. Has anyone else experienced this problem and resolved it? What is the solution for this issue?
Orchestrator 2025 Security Credentials Problem
Hi, I’m experiencing an issue in SCO 2025 that has occurred across three different installations. In the Text File Management and File Management IPs, I’m unable to save the security credentials information for the activities. In other activities, such as Get Service Status, it works as expected. If I enter the account information, click Finish, and then reopen the properties, the fields are empty. As a result, the activity runs using the service account specified for the Orchestrator Runbook Service. Has anyone else experienced the same issue, or could there be something wrong with my installations? Get file status: Get service status:All Clients Showing with Question Mark in MECM Console - ResourceID Issue
All of a sudden (2 weeks ago) all my MECM Clients (~ 4000) in MECM 2409 are showing with a question mark (?) in the console and no values in Last Online Time, Last Activity or HeartBeatDDR. Upon investigation in the statesy.log file on our single site server we see the following message for all clients: SQL MESSAGE: dbo.spProcessStateReport - The record for machine MYCLIENT (GUID:CF5413C8-1DA7-450D-9243-33DB539DE8FF) was not found in the database. SMS_STATE_SYSTEM 24/09/2025 10:36:45 15356 (0x3BFC) We then ran MS SQL profiler and see that this external CLR stored proceedure checks for the existince of the client in the SQL view vLocalSystemIDXRef. This view is defined as follows: create view [dbo].[vLocalSystemIDXRef] as select MachineID, GUID from MachineIdGroupXRef where ArchitectureKey=5 and MachineID between dbo.fnGetSiteRangeStart() and dbo.fnGetSiteRangeEnd() The issue is that all clients are actually in the underlying table MachineIdGroupXRef but due to the filter dbo.fnGetSiteRangeStart() and dbo.fnGetSiteRangeEnd() they are not part of the view. The reason is their ResourceID is only 4 digits and the value returend from fnGetSiteRangeStart is 16777216. Q: How could the clients be getting this 4-digit resourceID all of a sudden? We have made no chnagesto MECM (no upgrades, DB restores etc. ).
SCSM 2025 installation failure - _PopulateUserRoles
Let me lay out the full picture first. Windows Server 2025, Remote SQL Server 2022 CU 20 FCI (used for internal reasons, but I also tried using Always On and encountered the same error), and a clean installation of SCSM 2025 Management Server. I also tried CU19, but the same issue occurs. The installation starts without any problems. It goes through all the steps: creates the database, configures registry settings, configures the server, installs services, and imports management packs. But right after that, I get the following error: _"An error occurred while executing a custom action: PopulateUserRoles This upgrade attempt has failed before permanent modifications were made. Upgrade has successfully rolled back to the original state of the system. Once the corrections are made, you can retry the upgrade for this role." Immediately after this, the Event Viewer logs the following Event ID 36882: "The certificate received from the remote server was issued by an untrusted certificate authority. Because of this, none of the data contained in the certificate can be validated. The TLS connection request has failed. The attached data contains the server certificate. The SSPI client process is rundll32 (PID: 5084).” SQL does not require encryption and is not using any custom certificate. Just to clarify, the internal CA certificate is installed on all servers. The event is weird because, at this point, the installation has already created and configured the database. It doesn’t make sense to me, but the event appears at the exact same moment the installation fails. I’ve already checked permissions on both SQL and SCSM. The service account is a local administrator, has "Log on as a service" rights, and is a sysadmin on SQL. I’ve searched everywhere online but haven’t found a solution... Any ideas? Thanks.Update Rollup 7 for SCVMM 2019 with Windows Server 2025 support?
Does anyone know if Microsoft brings support for Windows Server 2025 guest virtual machines for System Center 2019 Virtual Machine Manager? With Update Rollup 4 in July 2022 Microsoft added support to manage Windows Server 2022 & Windows 11 guest virtual machines. Thank you for any news. Kind regards Patrick
VMM Module in PowerShell 7
With the latest news in the tech industry, when can we expect to see the System Center PowerShell modules to be supported in PowerShell 7.0? I believe MECM/MEM works in pwsh7 already but VMM doesn't at this point. Requiring a Windows machine to use the VMM module doesn't make a ton of sense.
