SCCM deployment logs tracing. TS vs Application

Hi,

Good day to all.

I've deployed an application using Task Sequence (DPs on target sites are not yet available). All is good with the deployment, files are being copied, apps are being installed. but I noticed in Monitoring > Deployments, computers that TS ran successfully (manual checking) are still tagged as unknown.

I tried deploying same app (same computers) using Application Model, and they report back as compliant in Monitoring > Deployments.

I want to trace how computers reports or works its way up to MPs, and from MPs to Site Server to Console. Can anyone tell me step by steps or the logs to check?

Task Sequence logs from Client -> MPs -> Site Server -> ConfigMgr Console
Application logs from Client -> MPs -> Site Server -> ConfigMgr Console

I just want to know the difference of the path (logs) TS is taking vs App....

Thank you.

    The best way to start is by looking at the client log files here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/mem/configmgr/core/plan-design/hierarchy/log-files#BKMK_ClientOpLogs

    Generally speaking, task sequence and application deployment are two different deployment methods and most of the logs are roughly the same.

    For our client side,you may check:
    AppDiscovery.log
    AppIntentEval.log
    AppDiscovery.log
    CAS.log
    ContentTransferManager.log
    DataTransferService.log
    ContentTransferManager.log
    CAS.log
    AppEnforce.log
    AppIntentEval.log
