Re: SCCM Distribution Point Server share

Hi Carsten,

you granted permissions for the MP? That would work if the MP is also the siteserver (because the siteserver will be sending the packages, not the MP).
I haven't tried that configuration with SCCM yet, but with SMS 2003 you also needed an admin$ share on the DP (even if SMS never put any files in it). Maybe you should give that a try. This scenario will not be supported ...

Hi,
I want to set up a remote Server Share as Distribution Point on a NetApp Filer.

A share exists and I granted share-level an Filesystem ACLs to the Computername$ Account of the sccm Management-Point Machine.

Acctually the 'SMS Site System Status Summarizer' logs errors due to 'access denied' and it's not possible to send packages to that distribution point.

What has to be configured, so that a remote server share can be successfully used. All Hosts are within the same Domain?

Could it be, that a NetApp based cifs Filer-share cannot be used as Software Distribution Point?

BTW:
BITS / HTTP / HTTPS are not enabled for that distribution point, because it's a Netapp Filer, where IIS cannot be installed of cource ;-)
The Main sccm Roles resides on a single Host.

Thanks so far.
