Scan Step in Deploy partly working
Finally the Scan Step arrived! I wanted to request such a feature but found out it was already in the PDQ Deploy 17 beta release!
Anyway, installed PDQ Deploy 17.1.0.0 today and started working with it. I added a simple scan step with the "Applications" scan profile; it gets started on the PDQ Inventory 16.5.0.0 and it finishes but at the Deploy console it does not; how come?
Both Deploy and Inventory are installed in Client/Server mode, running on the same server. Deploy has 2 licenses, Inventory only one.

Do you have Deploy or Inventory installed to a non-default location? If so, please contact support@pdq.com for a customer build.
Yes! I do have installed both packages in a non-default location. Which is not necessary because it's on the C: of the server (RAID 6 of SSD's). Would the smart thing to do be a reinstall to default install locations? Or could I just add junction points in my file system? A Customer build would be nice but prevents me from updating future versions instantly. Junction points (and I am willing to test) would help other users as well.
I'm sorry, but I don't understand what you mean by "A Customer build would be nice but prevents me from updating future versions instantly". You can update from customer builds to release builds.
Yes, but wouldn't a release build generate the same problem again at that time?
Anyway, I created the symbolic link (c:\Program Files (x86)\Admin Arsenal>mklink /d "PDQ Deploy" "C:\Admin Arsenal\PDQ Deploy") and the scan step immediatly started working as should!
No, this integration issue was just a bug in this specific release.
Ok, thanks for the feedback.
