[Tutorial] How to change the asset tag on a Surface Pro 3

Leave a reply

Scenario: When logging into the UEFI BIOS, you can see the asset tag's current value set as 0, but are unable to change it.

Solution: To change the asset tag on a Surface Pro 3, you must download a utility by Microsoft.

Note: Before beginning, please ensure you are using UEFI firmware version 3.9.150.0 or later

  1. Download a copy of the Surface Pro 3 Asset Tag CLI Utility from here (Surface Asset Tag.zip):
    https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=46703
  2. Extract the files from the zipped folder
  3. Open up an elevated command prompt
    Elevated Command Prompt
  4. Navigate to the folder you extracted the Surface Pro 3 Asset Tag CLI utility to
    Surface pro 3 AssetTag Directory
  5. Execute the following command
    1. AssetTag.exe -s ENTERYOURASSETTAGHERE
      AssetTag set Surface Pro 3
       

       

      1. Note: The asset tag can be up to 36 characters long. Valid characters include A-Z, a-z, 0-9, period and hyphen.
  6. Reboot the machine for the changes to take effect

 

About the tool

The utility comes with a readme on additional functionality.  This is copied directly from the Surface Pro 3 Asset Tag README.txt file for convience:

This tool gets or sets the proposed Asset Tag, which will be applied on next reboot.

The current Asset Tag is an SMBIOS setting which can be queried via WMI:
(Get-WmiObject -query "Select * from Win32_SystemEnclosure").SMBiosAssetTag

Get proposed asset tag:
AssetTag -g

Clear proposed asset tag:
AssetTag -s

Set proposed asset tag:
AssetTag -s ABc-45.67

Valid values:
The asset tag can be up to 36 characters long.
Valid characters include A-Z, a-z, 0-9, period and hyphen.

PowerShell script demonstrating way to get proposed value and interpret errors.
Note that stout contains the Asset Tag and stderr contains error messages.

AssetTag -g > $asset_tag 2> $error_message
$asset_tag_return_code = $LASTEXITCODE
$asset_tag = $asset_tag.Trim("`r`n")

if ($asset_tag_return_code -eq 0) {
Write-Output ("Good Tag = " + $asset_tag)
} else {
Write-Output (
"Failure: Code = " + $asset_tag_return_code +
"Tag = " + $asset_tag +
"Message = " + $error_message)
}

Update: Microsoft has posted official documentation on these steps here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/surface/assettag

Resolution: This behavior is 100% caused by an invalid configuration using HTTPS.  In this particular case, machines were not autoenrolling in machine based certificates, thus, System Center could not authenticate the client and would not allow setup to complete.

Here are some things to try to point you in the general direction of where something may have gone wrong in your deployment:

  1. If you are not using HTTPS (do not have a PKI environment), make sure you have turned off HTTPS configurations for your site.
  2. Ensure your clients are properly configured for autoenrollment
  3. Ensure your clients are actually receiving a machine certificate from autoenrollment
  4. Ensure your certificate authority's certificate and CRL lists are not expired

Office 365 - Change the Alias attribute of an Exchange mailbox for a federated user

2 Replies

Scenario: A federated Office 365 user's Alias is incorrect.  You wish to change it, but changing the proxyAddress or Mail attribute in Active Directory does not update the Alias.

Before this tutorial, you can see the Alias has a typo in it (the m and o are out of place)

Unable to get SQL connection.

SmsAdminUI_log - Unable to get SQL connection

Solution: During your installation you may have tried to change the default SSL certificate on the database.  Based on what documentation I could find, by design, System Center requires you use the default SSL certificate that gets autogenerated during the installation process.  In this case, you need to ensure you have a seperate SQL Server instance dedicated solely to the System Center installation and can use the dedicated system center SSL certificate.

Notes: If you receive errors like  like [SQL Server Native Client 10.0] SSL provider: The target principle is incorrect or  [SQL Server Native Client 10.0] Client unable to establish connection. you might need to install the Server 2008 Native SQL Client (which can be obtained from here).

Office 365 - Call us overprotective, but we need to verify your account again before opening this document.

Leave a reply

Symptom:

When trying to open a document in Office 2013 ProPlus from Office 365's SharePoint environment, you are periodically prompted for credentials to SharePoint Online, OneDrive, and Lync Onlinet (using your email address and password).  Additionally, the affected users are those that have been synchronized from an on-premise Active Directory environment via ADFS.

Side Note: Not sure if this is relevent or not, but we noticed this started to happen after upgrading our ADFS Proxy Servers to Server 2012 R2 (ADFS v3).

You are prompted with the following Sign In box:

Call us overprotective, but we need to verify your account again before opening this document.
Sign In

Once you try signing in, you receive the following error:

We are unable to connect right now. Please check your network and try again later.

Sign In 2

Inside of the Lync 2013 client, you might see the following dialog as well:

Credentials are required

Lync needs your user name and password to connect for retrieving calendar data from Outlook

Sign In 3

Solution:

This error is caused by a variety of different issues.  Please try all of the following below.

If you have a single client having issues

  • Clearing cache of Internet Explorer
  • Running an online repair of Office 365 ProPlus
  • Switching Accounts inside of Outlook (File->Office Account->Switch Account)
  • Deactiving office from Office 365 settings and reactivating

If this is a widespread issue on multiple machines in your environment

  • Verify all proxy servers are functioning
    • If you have multiple proxy servers, ensure your Network Load Balancer is functioning correctly
  • You might be hitting a known bug with the Office 2013 Suite.  See the following KB article on how to try a workaround (this was the fix for an environment I worked on using ADFS and Server 2012): http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2913639

System Center 2012 R2 - The user account running the Configuration Manager console has insufficient permissions to read information from the Configuration Manager site database

13 Replies

Symptom: When any user account, other than the individual who originally configured SCCM, tries to manage System Center Configuration Manager (SCCM), they are presented with the following error:

The user account running the Configuration Manager console has insufficient permissions to read information from the Configuration Manager site database.  The account must belong to a security role in Configuration Manager.  The account must also have the Windows Server Distributed Componenet Object Model (DCOM) Remote Activation permission for the computer running the Configuration Manager site server and the SMS Provider. Configuration Manager cannot connect to the site - System Center 2012 R2 Configuration Manager

Solution: We need to provide a list of users/groups to have access to System Center through the configuration console.  Follow the steps below on how to grant access.

  1.  Open up the System Center Configuration Manager Console System Center 2012 R2 Configuration Manager Console - Task Bar
  2. Select Administration
    System Center 2012 R2 Configuration Manager - Administration
  3. Expand Security, select Administrative Users, and select Add User or Group at the top
    System Center 2012 R2 - Administration - Security - Administrative Users - Add User or Group
  4. Click the Browse button to add security group or user you wish to add for the User or group name
    1. Note about Domain Admins: the first group you might try to add is Domain Admins, however if you add that group you will notice that users in this group will still be unable to open the console.  This is due to the behavior of user context logged in.  If UAC is enabled on the machine, you won't have access to the SCCM you login to the machine with a domain admin account, unless you right click on the console and run it is Administrator.  If you want this to work as intended, you will need to create a new security group in Active Directory, add Domain Admins to it, and then specify that group in SCCM.
  5. Click the Add... button
    System Center 2012 R2 - Administration - Security - Administrative Users - Add User or Group - Add
  6. Check Full Administrator, and click OK
    System Center 2012 R2 - Administration - Security - Administrative Users - Add User or Group - Add - Add Security Role
  7. Click OK
    System Center 2012 R2 - Administration - Security - Administrative Users - Add User or Group - Group and Security Roles assigned
  8. The end result should now look like this.  At this point, any member or group inside of SCCM Admins should have access to manage SCCM now via the console.

SYSVOL and Group Policy out of Sync on Server 2012 R2 DCs using DFSR

73 Replies

Recently while making changes to group policy, I noticed a slew of issues between clients not accepting the policy.  This eventually led me to the discovery that two of the DCs in this particular environment were not replicating properly and were resulting in inconsistent SYSVOL shares.

Symptoms

On the clients we were seeing the following errors when executing the gpupdate command:

gpupdate - processing of group policy failed - registry-based policy settings

Task Category: None
Level: Error
Keywords:

Description:
The processing of Group Policy failed. Windows could not apply the registry-based policy settings for the Group Policy object LDAP://CN=Machine,cn={CF25ED30-3895-4147-8EB7-38789553F6A0},cn=policies,cn=system,DC=mydomain,DC=local. Group Policy settings will not be resolved until this event is resolved. View the event details for more information on the file name and path that caused the failure.

On the DCs we were seeing the following events inside of Event Viewer -> Applications and Service Logs -> DFS Replication

Log Name: DFS Replication
Source: DFSR
Date: 7/25/2014 1:04:30 PM
Event ID: 4612
Task Category: None
Level: Error
Keywords: Classic
User: N/A
Computer: DC02.mydomain.local
Description:
The DFS Replication service initialized SYSVOL at local path C:\Windows\SYSVOL\domain and is waiting to perform initial replication. The replicated folder will remain in the initial synchronization state until it has replicated with its partner DC01.mydomain.local. If the server was in the process of being promoted to a domain controller, the domain controller will not advertise and function as a domain controller until this issue is resolved. This can occur if the specified partner is also in the initial synchronization state, or if sharing violations are encountered on this server or the sync partner. If this event occurred during the migration of SYSVOL from File Replication service (FRS) to DFS Replication, changes will not replicate out until this issue is resolved. This can cause the SYSVOL folder on this server to become out of sync with other domain controllers.

Solution

We ended up having to manually preform an authoritive synchronization between the two DCs.  As you may know, DFSR no longer uses the same steps as FSR to do an authoritive sync.  Below are my notes and expereinces on completing an authoritive DFSR sync.  You can find the ofificial notes from Microsoft here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2218556/en-us

  1. Logon to your primary DC
  2. Stop the DFS Replication service
    1. Click on the Start menu, select Administrative Tools, and then click ServicesServices
    2. In the Name column, right-click DFS Replication or Netlogon, and then click Stop
  3. Open up ADSI Edit
    Server Manager - ADSI Edit
  4. Open up the Default naming context
    ADSI Edit - Connection Settings - Default naming context
  5. Navigate to the following
    1. CN=SYSVOL Subscription,CN=Domain System Volume,CN=DFSR-LocalSettings,CN=<the server name to replicate from>,OU=Domain Controllers,DC=<domain>
      ADSI Edit - Default Naming Context - Domain Controllers - DC01 - DFSR-LocalSettings - Domain System Volume
  6. Change the following attributes to the following values
    1. msDFSR-Enabled=FALSE
      msDFSR-options=1
      ADSI Edit - Default Naming Context - Domain Controllers - DC01 - DFSR-LocalSettings - Domain System Volume - msDFSR-Enabled - False
      ADSI Edit - Default Naming Context - Domain Controllers - DC01 - DFSR-LocalSettings - Domain System Volume - msDFSR-Options - 1
      Both values applied
      ADSI Edit - Default Naming Context - Domain Controllers - DC01 - DFSR-LocalSettings - Domain System Volume - msDFSR-Options - msDFSR-Enabled

      1. Note: If you cannot see msDFSR-options, uncheck Show only attributes that have values
        ADSI Edit - Default Naming Context - Domain Controllers - DC01 - DFSR-LocalSettings - Domain System Volume - Show only attributes that have values
  7. On the ALL other DCs, change the msDFSR-Enabled attribute to False
    ADSI Edit - Default Naming Context - Domain Controllers - DC01 - DFSR-LocalSettings - Domain System Volume - msDFSR-Enabled - False
  8. Force Active Directory replication throughout the domain (ensure all sync resposnes terminate with no errors).
    1. repadmin /syncall primary_dc_name /APed
      repadmin -syncall -aped

      1. NOTE: Here is a list of what the switches mean
        1. /A: Perform /SyncAll for all NC's held by <Dest DSA> (ignores <Naming Context>)
        2. /P: Push changes outward from home server (default: pull changes)
        3. /e: Enterprise, cross sites (default: only home site)
        4. /d: ID servers by DN in messages (instead of GUID DNS)
  9. Start the DFSR service back up on the authoritive DC
    1. Click on the Start menu, select Administrative Tools, and then click Services
      Services
    2. In the Name column, right-click DFS Replication or Netlogon, and then click Start
  10. Open up event viewer and navigate to Applications and Services Logs -> DFS Replication.  Verify you see Event ID 4114.
    Event Viewer - Applications and Services Logs - DFS Replication - Event 4114
  11. Navigate back to the following in ADSI
      1. CN=SYSVOL Subscription,CN=Domain System Volume,CN=DFSR-LocalSettings,CN=<the server name to replicate from>,OU=Domain Controllers,DC=<domain>
        ADSI Edit - Default Naming Context - Domain Controllers - DC01 - DFSR-LocalSettings - Domain System Volume
  12. Set the value of msDFSR-Enabled to TRUE
    ADSI Edit - Default Naming Context - Domain Controllers - DC01 - DFSR-LocalSettings - Domain System Volume - msDFSR-Enabled - True
  13. Execute the following via an elevated command prompt
    1. DFSRDIAG POLLAD
      1. NOTE: This is a utility apart of DFS Managment Tools.  I completed the guide successfully without running this command, but Microsoft recommends you do run this command.
  14. Force Active Directory replication throughout the domain
    1. repadmin /syncall primary_dc_name /APed
      repadmin -syncall -aped
  15. Wait a few minutes and you should see Event ID 2002 and 4602
    Event Viewer - Applications and Services Logs - DFS Replication - Event 4602 - Event 2002
  16. Navigate back to each of your secondary DCs and change the value of msDFSR-Enabled to TRUE
    ADSI Edit - Default Naming Context - Domain Controllers - DC01 - DFSR-LocalSettings - Domain System Volume - msDFSR-Enabled - True
  17. Execute the following via an elevated command prompt
    1. DFSRDIAG POLLAD
      1. NOTE: This is a utility apart of DFS Managment Tools. I completed the guide successfully without running this command, but Microsoft recommends you do run this command. Force Active Directory replication throughout the domain
  18. Verify you see Event ID 2002 and 4602 on each of the secondary DCs
    Event Viewer - Applications and Services Logs - DFS Replication - Event 4602 - Event 2002

At this point, try running a gpupdate on your client.  If all has gone well, each of your shared SYSVOL folders on your DCs should contain the same amount of policies and your client should successfully pull down all policies.

gpupdate - success
