W2K3 SP2 Install Using RDP

Hi, I am attempting to create a job in RDP to install W2K3 SP2.
I have read "How To Distribute A Microsoft Service Pack" on the RDP KB (Article 103 - http://h18013.www1.hp.com/products/servers/management/rdp/knowledgebase/00000103.html) and created a job with its' sugegstions.
We are continually getting a job failure message stating "Error 3010 installing package "
I realise I can script it, but thought I would try and use the distribute software functionality of RDP to see how it goes.
Has anyone created a job for W2K3 SP2 deployment?
Thanks.

Re: W2K3 SP2 Install Using RDP

You receive return code 3010 because the Microsoft setup needs the system to reboot. You probably have set the noreboot flag in the unattended installation string.
You can easily fix this by adding the 3010 return code to the 'return code' window(click next instead of finish on a run script job). Add code 3010 with 'Continue' as response. Then add a task to reboot the system.

Have an "other return code" stating 3010 and instructing RDP to continue.
All working perfectly now.
