Configuring SCCM

Follow the SCCM configuration procedures in the order shown.

Note: Ensure that user must be able to establish remote PowerShell sessions with the MECM server. The spoke scripts use Microsoft.PowerShell32 configuration for creating sessions. For user permissions, see User permissions in Microsoft Learn.

  To deploy software using ServiceNow® Client Software Distribution (CSD), ensure that an SCCM administrative user has the correct permissions to deploy software and that PowerShell is properly configured.

  Ensure that the System Center Configuration Manager SCCM Cmdlet Library is up-to-date.
• Configure the MID Server for SCCM activities
  To use a MID Server with Microsoft System Center Configuration Management (SCCM) activities, configure it to communicate with the SCCM server.
• Create Connection and Credential alias for SCCM deployments
  Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager (SCCM) requires the appropriate credentials to deploy applications using the Client Software Distribution application.
• Retrieve SCCM data for client software distribution
  Retrieve the collections and the list of applications available for deployment from your SCCM servers.
• Set up a software model for an SCCM application
  Using the applications discovered on the SCCM server, set up a software model used by the Software Asset Management application to manage licenses.

  To create catalog items for SCCM software deployment or to configure your instance to revoke software through SCCM, you must first associate that software with a collection through an SCCM configuration.
• Create a catalog item for an SCCM application
  Create a catalog item for an application you want to offer for distribution from the service catalog using the applications discovered on the SCCM server.
