Enterprise CA option is greyed out / unavailable

Many times, when installing Active Directory Certificate Services they cannot choose to install Enterprise Certification Authority, because it’s unavailable as in following picture: Well, you need to fulfill basic requirements: Server machine has to be a member server (domain joined). You can run an Enterprise CA on the Standard, Enterprise, or Data Center Windows Edition. The difference is the number of ADCS features and components that can be enabled. To get full functionality, you need to run on Enterprise or Data Center Windows Server 2008 /12/R2/ Editions.  In order to install an Enterprise CA, you must be a member of either Enterprise Admins or Domain Admins in the forest root domain (either directly or through a group nesting).

Computers not joining domain in SCCM task sequence

Image
Issue:   I recently created a new TS and edited the LDAP path to change the OU where the computers get added. However, the machine fails to join the domain. Resolution:   Check the logs c:\windows\debug\NetSetup.log. and if you find the error shown in red, might be the service account which is  been configured to join in domain may not have the permissions to put objects in that OU.

Additionally you can check the smsts.log  Reference: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/configmgrosd/thread/40c208fb-51cc-4bb8-ad88-7a46e10399f0/

In Windows 7, the Java Control Panel icon may be damaged / corrupted. Attempting to launch the icon results in "Explorer.exe : Application not found". Note the generic icon: When working properly, the circled icon should look like this: This problem appears to be an artifact from previous JRE installations and Sun's installation routines were flawed. Re-installing JRE (the Java Runtime Environment) does not resolve the problem. Immediate workaround: If needed, the Java Control Panel can be manually launched using this location: C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\JRE6\bin\Javacpl.exe As a side note, when launching, other-mouse-click the .exe and choose "Run as Administrator".  Running as Administrator resolves a bug where changes in the Control Panel (especially Auto-update changes) do not stic...
