0000C800 error code on launching APPV Management Console

Today I got an 0000C800 error code on lauching the APPV Management console. The server name and credentials is entered correctly. Besides, the services are running too. I even restarted the machine several times but the error doesn't go away. At last, I disjoin and join back the domain, and the problem solved. Cheers!!!

Software Distribution delay due to Time Zone difference.

Selecting local time instead of UTC can cause delay or no response on software distribution/updates. Today I faced a case that the client time zone is different from the sccm site server. Waited day long and still get no response. At the end found out that the time zone is different. After changed to the same time zone, the advertisement straight away pops up and performs software installation.

*Please make sure that the time zone of sccm site server and the time zone of client server is the same if you are using local time instead of UTC.

0x80070032 Error on OSD

I'm doing OSD via boot from media, and 0x80070032 error pops up after downloaded Windows PE. After some troubleshooting, I found out that the "Copying Winodws PE" step is finished faster than normal (no download at all). Therefore I decided to wipe out everything inside the harddisk by doing normal installation with CD. I force shut down the machine after the format step finished (without OS installation). Then I redo the OSD via boot from media and it's works! Cheers :)
