Leonard Powers posted: Does User Hive Profile Cleanup now work ok with swv 6.1 SP4 ?

I need a solution I know there has been problems with UHPCleanup not working with previous versions of SWV. Has this been fixed with SP4. Our XP PC's take a while to shutdown and UHPCleanup certainly helped to speed things

Leonard Powers commented on: Assigned jobs to PC's have no tasks appearing in job

Can someone tell me, if you create a new PC and assign a imaging job to that PC, do you see the tasks within that job? If so, which Server OS, SQL version and DS version are you using. Thanks

Leonard Powers commented on: Assigned jobs to PC's have no tasks appearing in job

They can be any jobs. We started to notice it with imaging jobs since that generally the first things we do with a new PC. But if you assign any job, even a simple script to do a "dir", this appears as blank (no tasks ...

I need a solution Hi All, Got a real odd one. Our Altiris server has been working fine for ages. However recently it started to do some odd things. Basically, if you assigned a job to a new PC, the tasks within that job wi

Shawn, We didn't find what the problem was but your solution sounds interestings. Same here, we have about 60 profiles on a PC. However it tended to be teachers who complained the most and they wouldn't have have that many profiles ...

Leonard Powers commented on: assigned jobs keep appearing empty on new PC's

Not good news. The KB above worked and I managed to squeeze that 38GB file down to about 3mb. I thought it had fixed the problem as the deploy job tasks appeared on the new PC but after a reboot of the server, they were not ...

Leonard Powers commented on: assigned jobs keep appearing empty on new PC's

Hmm, that could be the solution. Just had a quick look and our eXpress.mdf is 221mb in size but the eXpress_log.ldf is a massive 38GB in size. Yikes!!!! Just backing everything up before I try the solution above. I'll post ...

Leonard Powers commented on: assigned jobs keep appearing empty on new PC's

No conditions are on the job. It's as if the tasks are being removed from the job when I apply it to the new PC. I've tried to deploy a existing software job to a new PC and the job shows as no tasks inside it. If I drag ...

I need a solution Hi All, Got a real odd one here. We've taken delivery for 25 PC's which we have added into DS 6.9 SP3 and assigned the imaging and software deployment jobs to them. The idea is that when we come

Leonard Powers commented on: Big Bug? SWV 6.1 SP1 & DataLayer = data corrupt / folders not accessible

Had a look under the delete entries and there is nothing there. I've done this sort of proceure heaps of times before with all our virtual applications. What I have discovered is that if you move the modified start menu folder from ...

I need a solution Hi All, I've posted before about the slow boot ups we are experencing with our computers. I work at school and our teachers can easily have over 25 svs apps installed on their PC's. Now that SP1

Leonard Powers commented on: SVS for ignorant... or starters!

Just tried this reg key myself and it made all the virtual apps start menu shortcuts disapear. When I set the value back to zero it was ok again. Guess it doesn't work with SWV 6.1 ?

Hi Erik Just saw this old post about this registry setting and was wondering if you had any further info about what it does. We're getting terrible problems with slow boot times and users seeing "Applying Computer Settings" ...

Finally found the solution. It turns out that the Notification Server Application metering agent was causing this problem. Once I disabled the agent, my software was able to install and terminate ok. No idea what caused the problem ...

Thanks Phil, Not quite the problem I'm getting. The service does start when you import and activate. But when you reboot the PC, it has disapeared from the list of services. So it's just not there to restart. A reset of ...

Hi EdT, Thanks for your advice. It's given me some pointers to start with. I've just deactivated all layers with my App in the base OS and the program still wouldn't run. I'm going to try what you suggest to see what is ...

I've tried it in both settings. App is in the base with and then with the app as a SVS layer. Same problem in both cases. I've not tried disabling all the other SVS layers with the App in the base layer. I'll give that a ...
