Are any default Microsoft Systems Management Server (SMS) reports available to help monitor the deployment of an OS via the SMS OS Deployment Feature Pack?

A. The standard SMS "Advertisement status messages for a particular client and advertisement" report gives details about an OS deployment, including when the phases were performed and the actions within each phase. To view the report, perform the following steps:

  1. Select the "Advertisement status messages for a particular client and advertisement" report via the reports Web site (e.g. http://<sms report site server>/SMSReporting_<site name>/Reports.asp).
  2. Select the OS advertisement and the machine name whose deployment you want to check and click the Display button, as the figure shows.
  3. You'll see a detailed report about the OS deployment. For each item, you can expand the detail by clicking the shortcut arrow icon in the left column, as the figure shows.
