SCCM/Config Manager client issues and troubleshooting tips

kriscamaro68

I need to come up with a list of troublleshooting steps for my helpdesk guys to use when trying to figure out why a client isn't getting updats via configman\sccm. For those of you out there that have dealt with it could you list your steps in fixing issues or give me a link of what has helped you fix issues.

Example: Windows XP fix for Configman\sccm
Rebuilding the WMI Repository: Click Start, Run and type CMD

Type this command and press Enter: net stop winmgmt

Using Windows Explorer, navigate to %systemroot%system32wbem directory and delete the Repository directory. By default, the repository folder is located in the C:Windowssystem32wbem directory.

Switch to Command Prompt window, and Type this command and press Enter: net start winmgmt

2. Re-registering the WMI components:The .DLL and .EXE files used by WMI are located in %windir%system32wbem. You might need to re-register all the .DLL and .EXE files in this directory. If you are running a 64-bit system you might also need to check for .DLLs and .EXE files in %windir%sysWOW64wbem.

To re-register the WMI components, run the following commands at the command prompt:

cd /d %windir%system32wbem
for %i in (*.dll) do RegSvr32 -s %i
for %i in (*.exe) do %i /RegServer


Thanks for any help.
