SCCM 2012 R2 OSD Deployment Run Task Sequence From Distribution Point
Problem
Unable to switch the deployment option to run from local distribution point
Solution
All the software included in the task sequence need to have the option enabled “copy the content in this package to a package share on distribution points”
an easy way to find which packages do not have this enabled is the SQL query below:
1. Find your PackageID number for the task squence
2. Login to sql and run the query against the sccm db
Declare @TaskSequenceID char(8); set @TaskSequenceID = '000CB'
select P.PkgID, P.Manufacturer, P.Name, P.Version, P.Language, P.PkgFlags, (128 & P.PkgFlags)
from v_TaskSequenceReferencesInfo as TSR inner join vPackage as P on P.PkgID = TSR.ReferencePackageID
WHERE TSR.PackageID=@TaskSequenceID
and (128 & P.PkgFlags) <> 128 --the bitmask for the "Copy the content... option in the Package Data Access properties"
3. Enable the option: Copy the content in this package to a package share on distribution points
