1. SQL Server 2022 Support for ConfigMgr


Support for SQL Server 2022 is one of the new features included in ConfigMgr 2303’s release. Since SQL Server 2022 is now supported, SCCM installations that previously only supported SQL Server 2019 can now install SQL Server 2022 or even upgrade to version 2022 of their current SQL Server. Have a look at the list of supported SQL Server versions for SCCM.

The SQL Server 2022 can now be used on a central administration site, primary site and secondary site. The recommended compatibility level for SQL 2022 is 150 for ConfigMgr.

The following table identifies the recommended compatibility levels for Configuration Manager site databases:


2. New Endpoint Security reports in Intune admin center for Tenant Attached devices


You can choose Endpoint Security reports for tenant-attached devices, starting with Configuration Manager 2303 in the Intune admin center. The optional reports for unhealthy endpoints and active malware will begin displaying information from the tenant attach devices if you select to receive these reports. The information from tenant connect devices will also be shown in corporate reports on identified malware and antivirus agent status.


3. Console dark theme extended to delete secondary site wizard


In ConfigMgr 2303, the dark theme has been extended for the delete secondary site wizard in the Configuration Manager console. You have to first enable the dark theme for ConfigMgr console. This wizard will also have a new look for the normal theme. Microsoft says that this is part of an ongoing effort to improve the dark theme and user experience of the admin console.

4. Enable Windows features introduced via Windows servicing that are off by default


This new feature introduced in ConfigMgr 2303 was added to SCCM technical preview release 2303. This new setting has been added under the Client Settings > Software Updates. The Windows features that the policy will control will be released in the later part of 2023. Note that “Enable features introduced via servicing that are off by default” is set to Not Configured by default.


5. Update to the default value of supersedence age in months for software updates


One of the new features of SCCM 2303 includes the update to the default value of supersedence age in months for SCCM software updates. The default value of supersedence age (months to wait before superseded updates are expired) has been updated from 3 to 6 months for both feature and non-feature updates for new Software Update Role installations.

Note: Removing SUP role in Admin Console does not reset the supersedence age property in WMI. As a result, while reconfiguring the role, the previously configured value is shown in the configuration window. This property needs to be reset to default value on role removal.


6. Get Authorization failure message in admin service in Status message viewer


Microsoft has introduced the audit messages about authorization failure in the admin service with ConfigMgr 2303 release. This feature was first added in the Technical Preview 2211 release. You can now view request details and status messages. These messages will be shown in “All Status Message” at “Status Message Queries” in “Monitoring” ribbon. Previously, these failures were logged in log files.

3 Ways to Restart ConfigMgr PXE Responder Service on a DP

In this article, I will show you multiple ways to restart ConfigMgr PXE responder service on a distribution point server. Restarting the PXE responder service is typically done during the OSD troubleshooting and helps you resolve many OSD issues. The PXE responder service manages requests made by Pre-Boot execution Environment (PXE) – enabled client computers. If this service is stopped, PXE-enabled client computers will be unable to install Windows remotely. When you install a distribution point, the PXE responder service is not enabled by default. By enabling the PXE responder on SCCM DP, you can get rid of WDS as it isn’t required any more. If you are new to ConfigMgr, learn how to enable PXE responder without WDS on a SCCM DP. When you enable the PXE responder services on a distribution point, you’ll notice a new service (SCCMPxe) is installed, known as ConfigMgr PXE responder service. This service has no dependencies, and the activities of this service are logged in a separate fil...

2 Best Solutions: Error Can’t Connect to Windows 365

In this article, I will show you how to resolve the error can’t connect to Windows 365. If you are unable to access your Cloud PC using the Windows 365 app, there are two ways to solve this issue. I normally connect to my Cloud PC using the Windows 365 app. Note that there are multiple ways to connect and access your Cloud PCs. For instance, you can connect to a cloud PC using the Windows 365 home page, the Windows 365 App, or the Microsoft Remote Desktop client. Cloud PCs are accessible to users only after you assign Windows 365 licenses to users. Note that you should also provision Windows 365 Cloud PCs that allow users to access them from any device. In my case, the provisioning policy in place for Cloud PCs and a valid license was assigned to the user. In some cases, when you attempt to connect to Cloud PC, there may be gateway errors or connection errors. Refer to the following guide on troubleshooting Cloud PC connection errors, where I have covered solutions for Cloud PC access ...
