Microsoft released another hotfix KB5001600 for ConfigMgr 1910 through 2010. This KB Fix Microsoft Connected Cache MCC Server Component Installation Fails Issue with Configuration Manager. But the installation of this KB is a bit different from a normal out-of-band hotfix.

I have a post about the known issues of Configuration Manager 2010. More details available – SCCM 2010 Known Issues Bugs & Fixes. With the release of the 2010 rollup update KB4600089, most of those known issues are fixed. But here comes another issue with Microsoft Connected Cache (MCC).

• Uncheck the Enable this DP to be used as a Microsoft Connected Cache server option in the affected distribution point’s properties.

• Wait for the uninstall of MCC to complete on the distribution point.  You can confirm this by the 9152 success status message.
• Once MCC got uninstalled successfully, you can Re-enable the checkmark from the option called Enable this distribution point to be used as a Microsoft Connected Cache server for the affected distribution point.

Automation – Reset Distribution Point

When you have many DPs (more than 10-15 or more), it is tough to disable and re-enable MCC (Microsoft Connected Cache) component from DP properties. That is why Microsoft provided the following method to the automation option to reset DP with the new DoincInstall.exe file.

• Open Notepad.exe from Run.
• Enter File Name – resetdps.trn (a blank text file).
• Save as type – All Files (*.*).

• Open the {SMSInstallDir}\inboxes\distmgr.box folder (F:\Program Files\Microsoft Configuration Manager\inboxes\distmgr.box)

• Copy the resetdps.trn file created above.
• Paste resetdps.trn file to F:\Program Files\Microsoft Configuration Manager\inboxes\distmgr.box (Remember to change the Drive letter – F:\ – to the one that is specific to your environment).
