Printer change
Old IP printers were removed from workstations and replaced with new print queues:

Printer address: \\iscs-printq\KAd-500-Ricoh-MP-2851
Printer IP: 10.214.18.229
Printer driver: PCL6 Universal v4.6
Security group: CN_Printers_KAd 500 Ricoh MP 2851

Note: All three departments share this printer. I have the owner listed as Enrollment management.

Resolved Issues

  • DIRKSB-OP755 (00:21:9b:81:ef:bd) was documented in the initial walk-through and migrated but the machine was actually moved to Waldo with Academic Programs. This was moved back in Cyder to zone.asc (128.193.18.95 – 128.193.18.253). I contacted the customer but they were unavailable.
  • CSL-46-OP780 (b8:ac:6f:9e:a9:96) appeared to be an old registration and was deleted from Cyder but turned out to be a loaner computer for Salvador Castillo while his current computer is at the build bench. Max Schmidt was able to get this registered in Cyder. Additionally, I added his loaner IP address to the IR-SQL firewall rule so he still has access to the server.

Unresolved Issues

None.

New Core Migration: Registrar’s Office

Leave a comment

Better late than never here…the Registrar’s Office was moved to new core on September 23rd.

Cyder/IP change
All workstations and printers…
Moved from: zone.registrar (10.128.154.5 – 10.128.154.252)
Moved to: zone.cn_studentadmin (10.214.18.56 – 10.214.19.253)

Printer change
Old IP printers were removed from workstations and replaced with new print queues:

Printer address: \\iscs-printq\KAd-102-Left-Ricoh-MP-3351
Printer IP: 10.214.18.159
Printer driver: PCL6 Universal v4.6
Security group: CN_Printers_KAd 102 Left Ricoh MP 3351

Printer driver: HP Universal Printing PCL 6 (v6.0.0)

Printer address: \\iscs-printq\KAd-102D-HP-Color-LaserJet-M451DN
Printer IP: 10.214.18.222
Printer driver: HP Universal Printing PCL 6 (v6.0.0)

Printer IP: 10.214.18.98
Printer driver: HP Universal Printing PCL 6 (v6.0.0)
Security group: CN_Printers_KAd 102 HP LaserJet M401DNE

ONID GPO: TSS – Printer Deployment – Registrar’s Office
TSS GPO: Printer Deployment – Registrar’s Office

Resolved Issues

  • The following computers in Institutional Research were improperly registered in zone.registrar and were moved on accident:
    • CastillS-OP980 – I moved this back the same morning
    • lplagman-IBT510 – I moved this back the same morning
    • VICKERSB-OP7010 – Port actually got flipped and the user was functioning, left alone.
  • IP printers didn’t get removed right at 8am. I created a package in SCCM and deployed it shortly after which succeeded on 34/36 machines.
  • Kiosk machines didn’t get documented in the initial walk-through. Robin had Telecom flip the ports.
  • Rick DeBellis couldn’t print because he’s actually in the Enrollment Management department. I added him to the printer security group and added the printer GPO to his department’s users OU.
  • Transcript printer needed to be added to Banner (KAd-102-Right-Ricoh-MP-3351).

Unresolved Issues

  • Numerous student workers were logging in with ONID accounts and couldn’t print. The current method of delivering print queue printers doesn’t allow for this and the expectation is that student workers have CN student accounts. This isn’t ideal for departments with high turnover and many students so a solution is being worked out.
  • A request was made to change the name of KAd-102-HP-Laserjet-M401DNE to KAd-102-Front-HP-Laserjet-M401DNE.

Changes to Build Bench Build Procedures

Leave a comment

Due to reports of build inconsistencies on mac computers. The Build Bench Process has been changed. So what is changing?

  • Macs are moving back to being imaged by Deploy Studio. The process is now essentially a two step process for the basic build.  1: Image. 2: Install casper. I made it as easy and foolproof as I could. With the move to deploy studio, all of the enrollment policies in Casper have been changed so they do not install software automatically. This will make the execution of the quick add package a lot quicker.
  • The builds will no longer include department specific user templates as certain updates have changed the process and now require a complete overhaul to continue it. Which is too much maintenance for something so small.
  • I spoke to Angela, Lucas, Sam and Patrick and Office 2016 for mac is now on the image. Through our testing it has been good, and we feel it is important to get the online archive functionality to our mac users.
  • For macs to be joined to domain: As a reminder, they should only be joined in special circumstances where there are a lot of users using the machine. The machine should only be joined to the ONID domain. You can use the casper policy “CN – Onid – Domain Bind”
  • For Field Techs building macs in their free time. We ask that it be done at the build bench using deploy studio for consistency sake. Using our process completely. Once the rest of CS moves to Milne we can have a couple of ports available for the field techs that can access deploy studio. But as for now all mac computers should be built using the deploy studio process in the Milne 120 build bench.

Also as a reminder: iWork is to be only installed on machines after Late 2013. There is a smart group in casper that indicates whether or not they are eligible for free iWork. If their machine is not in that smart group, the customer must purchase the software from the app store. Under no circumstances should we be installing the software on machines that are not eligible.

As always, if you have any questions, feel free to let me know!

AABC was migrated to the new core last night.

Cyder/IP change
All workstations and printers…
Moved from: zone.business_centers (10.128.154.5 – 10.128.154.252)
Moved to: zone.cn_univadmin (10.160.82.20 – 10.160.82.126)

Printer change
Old IP printers were removed from workstations and replaced with new print queues:

Printer address: \\iscs-printq\Pol-104-Ricoh-MP-201

Printer driver: PCL6 Universal v4.6
Security group: CN_Printers_Pol 119 Ricoh MP 2851

ONID GPO: TSS – Printer Deployment – AABC
TSS GPO: Printer Deployment – AABC

Resolved Issues

  • The printer in 119 didn’t get documented in the initial walk-through, was hard-coded and wasn’t registered in Cyder with the correct Mac address.
  • There was one user with a converged account who wasn’t getting printers (onid\kellshan) because the GPO wasn’t applied to onid.oregonstate.edu/onid/_tss/Auxiliaries and Activities Business Center.
  • Marcia Ward was getting printers but couldn’t print. Turns out she could print to the Ricohs but not the HP because Robin had just restarted it.

Unresolved Issues
When moving ports Tim identified another occupant, Student Affairs. I will follow up with them and get them scheduled to move over to new core.

Windows Update Fix

Leave a comment

Microsoft just released patch KB3092627 to resolve issues that were caused by previous patch KB3076895.

From Microsoft:

  • If security update 3076895 is installed on a Windows 7-based or Windows Server 2008 R2-based computer, install update 3092627.
  • If update 3090303 is installed, customers already have the fix for the issue. Therefore, they don’t have to install update 3092627. Update 3092627 is a broader GDR release of the fix in update 3090303.
I am monitoring WSUS and will have folks follow up on any failed installs.
