![]() My last post explained that I was updating the documentation for the unsupported scenario of combining Internet-based client management and branch distribution points. I don’t usually write on software distribution, but while I had cracked open these topics, I made some other clarifications as a result of customer feedback and questions to date. The majority of these will go into the topic “About Standard and Branch Distribution Points”, which you will see updated for the R2 release. However, for easy identification, here’s a list of them – with thanks to Dave Randall/Wally Mead for clarifications, and to Jeff Gilbert/Gaurav Dhawan for identifying and verifying the correct conversion procedure.

Here's how to install and. Configuration Manager (Current Branch). The distribution point, Configuration Manager. The one FAQ that I haven’t yet included in the documentation is the question about what happens when a branch distribution point is installed on a workstation and the 11th concurrent session is attempted. The restriction of 10 concurrent sessions is a limitation of the operating system rather than Configuration Manager. Because this functionality belongs to Windows rather than Configuration Manager, we didn’t specifically test this but we believe that clients will automatically retry that branch distribution point for up to 8 hours. I’ve asked the product group to test this and when we have more information, I can update the documentation (and this blog). Update November 26th 2008: The results of these tests are now in: Clients do not retry the same branch distribution point for 8 hours, but retry once before immediately trying the next distribution point in the list. See the blog entry for more information about the retry tests and results. This information will go into the December Web documentation update.

Branch Distribution Points FAQs Why is the option to enable the branch distribution point disabled? If Configuration Manager detects non-supported states for a selected site system, the option to enable the branch distribution point will be disabled. These include: • The Configuration Manager client is not installed and/or not assigned to the site. These states must be reported back to the site, so check that the Client column displays Yes and the Assigned column displays Yes for the computer in the Collections node of the console. • The computer is a workgroup client. • The computer is running Windows 2000. • The computer registered as configured with an Internet-based management point (see my ). I’ve also heard reported that a conflicting record (duplicate GUID) can also prevent this option from being available, and another case where the option was not available until the Configuration Manager console was closed and reloaded. Also, make sure that the client and site system components are healthy – check status messages and log files for errors, and if necessary try uninstalling/reinstalling the client and site system.
