Overview : During a SCCM task sequence a specific application is to be installed.  The task sequence is designed to use a NOMAD cache to poll the source.  The sequence fails as no available cache is available. How to troubleshoot? On the NOMAD cacheing server Open regedit and check the package status details. Select the sub folder that corresponds to the cached item and review the details on the right.  You should check the following item are present and correct [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\1E\NomadBranch\PkgStatus\LDC002FE] "Percent"="100.000" "Version"="2" "CachePriority"="1" "CacheToFolder"="D:\\NomadBranchCache" "ReturnStatus"="Completed Successfully" "AlreadyCached"="0" Also check the logs for specific behaviour. C:\ProgramData\1E\NomadBranch\LogFiles The log should state "CacheStatus: (ELD)  pkgID="LDC002FE"(0) local=100.000% verified...

A solution is to periodically purge the oldest logfiles. This is easily done by creating a scheduled task with following command: C:\>Forfiles.exe /P C:\WINDOWS\system32\LogFiles\W3SVC1 /M *.log /D -30 /C "Cmd.exe /C del @path"   See  http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc753551(v=ws.10).aspx
