Deploy SGE 7 Client using GPO

Eduardo1

Hi All,

Happy New Year!

I've read the installation guides but still unsure how to deploy it centrally. There are 3 msi files (preinstall, client, configuration) that must be installed in order. Using Windows 2008 Server GPO, Computer -> Software installation, if all 3 files are added in there, there is no guarantee they will be installed in the order inserted. 

Installing them locally worked like a charm.

Any suggestions? Do you guys use a script to call the msi files sequentially?

Cheers,

Eddie

    I've recently had the same problem. First of all make sure you check the "ignore language" option in your advanced software assignment or it won't even install. (That took a couple of hours to figure out for me). Second, just user GPO link orders (3 separate GPOS).

    You want your link order to go like this.

    1 - Client Config

    2 - Client

    3 - Pre install

    (GPOs are applied from highest number to lowest) This way you can guarentee which get installed first.
