Not all files that the Systems Management Server 2003 site server client share contains are copied to a remote management point client share
When you install a remote Microsoft Systems Management Server management point on a remote server that is not the Systems Management Server 2003 site server, only the Client.msi file is copied to the client share (SMSClient\i386) on the remote management point server.
Only those files that must be on the client share to perform a push installation of the Systems Management Server 2003 client are copied to the client share on the Systems Management Server 2003 remote management point. In this case, Client.msi is the only required file.
Other files that the Systems Management Server 2003 site server client share contains, such as Capinst.exe and Smsman.exe, are not run directly from a remote Systems Management Server 2003 management point share. Therefore, these files do not have to be copied to the remote management point client share.
Although Ccmsetup.exe is not copied to the remote management point client share, when you perform a push installation of the Systems Management Server 2003 client, Ccmsetup.exe is copied from the Bin\i386 folder on the Systems Management Server 2003 site server. Ccmsetup.exe is not copied from the management point client share.
This behavior is by design.
APPLIES TO
- Microsoft Systems Management Server 2003
Community Feedback System
Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high
and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances
are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back.
Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what
didn't.
Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be
correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each
other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're
not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry
edits), please consult a professional.
Thank you for using kbAlertz.com Feedback System.
