Migrating a ConfigMgr application to a PMPC Custom App

Applies to: Patch My PC Cloud

ConfigMgr applications that can be migrated to Patch My PC (PMPC) Cloud and deployed as one of our Custom Apps have a Match Type of Custom App.

Once you click Migrate to migrate a ConfigMgr application to a PMPC Custom App, the Custom Apps Deployment Wizard starts, and you can follow the Create a Custom App section, but please note the following:

  • As a double-check, you should check that the information on each tab is correct before clicking Next.

Note

If the primary installer file is a .MSI, we auto-extract and populate the Conflicting processes field on the General tab.

  • On the Configurations tab, under the Install Parameters tool/section, check that the Additional Argument field is correct and includes any required additional arguments/command line options.

  • On the Assignments tab, you can click ConfigMgr Assignment List to see a list of the current assignments in ConfigMgr so you can then review this and set these up in Intune accordingly.

  • On the Assignments tab, if you do not want to set up any Detection Rules, you can click Migrate. If you do want to set up Detection Rules, you should click next to proceed to the Detection Rules tab.

  • On the Detection Rules tab, you can either continue with the Use Custom option, i.e. what we detected in ConfigMgr, or select the Patch My PC Default (Recommended) option instead and let us use our recommended settings.

When you click Migrate, the Success – Deployment Created, Migration Pending notification is shown.

“Migrate, the Success – Deployment Created, Migration Pending” notification

The Status field also updates to show In Progress as the deployment is being created, with any required content being zipped (such as the primary installer file and any extra files) and sent to Azure Blob Storage.

You can also monitor the progress of the deployment by clicking the Deployments node and watching for the Status of the deployment to change to Success.
