After upgrading System Center Configuration manager 2012 R2 to SP1 (or 2012 SP2), you might see this problem.
When deploying a OSD Task Sequence and not selecting when the deployment will be available (meaning now):
SCCM will auto select Schedule when this deployment will become available and setting the date and time to now (your current time):
But when you for example PXE boot a computer expecting the Task Sequence to be available it might not be so, and in smsts.log you will find the message Skipping Task Sequence because it is not active yet:
Changing the schedule to yesterday or just one hour back will make the Task Sequence available:
Thanks Lars, this helped me today at a customer! Cliff with Microsoft!
ReplyDeleteGood call. Just ran into the exact same issue and modifying the schedule worked for me!! Never had to do this pre R2 SP1.
ReplyDeleteJust ran into this in my SCCM 2012 CU3 R2 lab. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteHi, thanks we had the same problem and it works !
ReplyDeleteThank you, it solved the issue for me.
ReplyDeleteOdd stuff!!! Changing the deployment "Shedule when this deplyment will become available" and "assigment schedule time" to, for example, 12 hours ago, did the trick for me. Is this a bug?
