Hello Michael

Good blog. I'm using the MDT SQL database to store the applciations, the customsettings.ini builds a list of apps to install. The process works correctly but is taking alot longer than SMS OSD. The logs show a 1 minute + time to check for policy...check log:

Policy complied successfully in WMI 'root\ccm\policy\defaultmachine\requestedconfig' namespace

Get Install Directory for SMS Client

waiting for local policy to take effect

Policy evaluation initiated

It is the task/step - waiting for local policy to take effect that takes the time. This happens for each appliation install. I have 40 apps to install...

Has anyone else expericanced this? Does anyone know why this is happening?

Thanks

Peter

This is an issue in ConfigMgr 2007 SP1. Contact Microsoft Support to request a fix for this.
