SCCM: Package Requires a newer version of source files and the new compressed files haven't arrived yet,

For a couple of days i have been facing an issue with some packages not getting updated on the secondary Site DP

The message i kept seeing in the distmgr log on the Secondary Site server (DP) was:

Package ABC001D2 requires a newer version (2) of source files and the new compressed files haven't arrived yet, current version is 1, skip X:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Configuration Manager\inboxes\distmgr.box\INCOMING\10xVQPN1.PKG


I tried a lot of things like deleting the DP , adding the DP again , Refresh DP

However finally these steps fixed this one for us:

Before yyou begin check "All active package distributions" Report , it should show the package with Issue.

1.Go to the distmgr inbox on the DP that you have issue with

Look for the .PCK file for the package and delete it.

e.g ABC001D2.PCK



2.Backup the SCCM DB and then run the following queries:

Delete from pkgstatus where SiteCode = 'SEC' and ID = 'ABC001D2'

DELETE from PkgServers where SiteCode =  'SEC' and PkgID =  'ABC001D2'



These removed the details from SCCM Database and the Secondary site DP was removed from the package as verified in the SCCM console.


3.After that added the secondary site DP again.

 (you may be needed to Refresh the DP once if this doesnt work)


Hope this helps.

One of our servers was losing the Local Admin settings as we control them using GPO (restricted Groups) We were receiving the following event on this particular server : Event ID 4098 Application Event Log The computer 'Administrators (built-in)' preference item in the 'Servers Local Admins {odjd9DBD-22AF-48EA-ADF5-F42ADE4182hst}' Group Policy Object did not apply because it failed with error code '0x80070534 No mapping between account names and security IDs was done.'

iDRAC 7 Shows no Signal in Virtual Console Preview

Recently i logged on to iDRAC for one of our Dell R720 servers,however somehow the console redirection did not work at all. I kept on seeing No Signal on the Virtual console Preview. I tried Rebooting the server but that did not help. Finally i clicked on Reset iDRAC and this did the trick. It may take around 2 -5 minutes before you can access iDRAC page again. I had to power on the server through iDRAC before anything showed up on console. Hope this Helps.
