SCCM PXE Boot Deep Dive – Backend Flow & DP Migration
SCCM PXE Boot Deep Dive – Backend Flow & DP Migration I recently worked on a Distribution Point migration and noticed PXE requests were still routing to the old DP due to DHCP/IP helper configuration. I put together a deep dive explaining: PXE flow (DHCP and TFTP sequence) Role of Distribution Points What changes during DP migration Common failure points One key takeaway: PXE issues are almost always network and routing related, not SCCM itself. Curious how others are handling PXE in large environments. Are you standardizing on IP helpers or still using DHCP options?

SCCM Clients installed on Virtual Desktops duplicated in Defender Portal
Hello, We have Citrix Virtual Desktops with the Config Manager Client installed that are Azure joined. In the Microsoft 365 Defender Portal the devices keep duplicating themselves. There are non-persistent machines and I suspect that whenever they are updated from the master image that is it causing this to occur. In the Configuration Manager Server console these machines are not duplicated and only appear once. Looking for suggestions or recommendations on how to go about preventing this from occurring. Thank you, Steve
How to allow powershell in managed device?
HI everyone, newbie admin here. I am in the process of learning out to use the EndPoint Manager and I have enrolled my first device, which will be my work laptop. It is running windows 11 enterprise and it is enrolled in tenant with an account licensed at an 0365 A3 level. Up until there, everything seems fine, but I stumbled into a problem. I can't run powershell cmdlets. It's a fine restriction to have on 99% of the systems I'll be administering, but I need to run it on mine for user creation, and general maintence, etc. I can run the powershell cmdlets if a login as another, unmanaged , user, so it's not an install problem. I have alllowed, through MMC the running of scripts, and through the endpoint managers the running of powershell scripts, but nothing happened. I know other policies are being applied and synced to the device, so I out of ideas. See the pictures below: Any suggestions?
