An odd SCCM bug, some of our DP (Distribution Points) recently stopped working, the Task Sequence would hang during the “Installing Updates” step and would never finish.. Now the updates (files/packages) were all there and refreshing them did nothing to resolve the issue – at the end one of our external consultants pointed me to a hotfix kb2509007 which quickly resolved the issue (thanks to Thomas Marchussen, Edgmo).
Deployment would just get stuck here and never finish.
Odd and annoying problem which caused a lot of wasted time 🙁 – however the patch once applied and replicated worked like a charm.
