Re: Reinstalling software on Advanced Client

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry




1) If you add an extra assignment time to an advertisement that already
had an assignment time (which is not ASAP, logon, or logoff). The
advertisement reruns on all clients including the successful ones.

2) If you create a new advertisement with the exact same program to the
same collection, the advertisement only reruns on the failed clients.

3) If you want to force an advertisement to rerun that did not have an
assignment time to begin with on all clients (the ones that did launch
manually and the ones that didn't). You will have to create a new
program within the package and a new advertisement (with an assignment)
for this program.

4) If you want to rerun on a single client, we can delete the job on an
sms 2.0 or sms 2003 legacy client, or some unsupported reg tweak wmi
editing on an advanced client. The "initiate advanced client actions"
tool can help you do this.
