Re: Intel AMT: Configuration task sequence fails

1. Intel SCS  (RCS service + SCS Console, ACU Wizard, ACUConfig)  it configures Intel AMT/vPro technology regardless of other management Console SW like ex MS SCCM.
   SSLEAY32.dll is part of RCS service, most probably you have accidentally deleted it during SCS 10 fix installation.
   You may reinstall or repair RCS installation from SCS 10 original package (then apply SCS 10 fix again)
   
2. Intel SCS 10 fix – those are two files RCSServer.exe and ACU.dll files that shall replace SCS 10 original files (in RCSService , SCS Console, ACU Wizard and Configurator folders (4 folders – fix guide is missing some of  them).
   You just replace those two files appropriately –there is no install process, do not delete any other file. To replace RCSServer.exe you have first to stop RCS service – replace its binary and start it again.
   This fix is for SCS 10 only (no fix/solution for SCS 9 or earlier) – SCS 11 to be launched soon will have it natively incorporated.
   This fix is not related to any specific management Console SW like ex MS SCCM but it related to MS AD with MS15-096 security patch.
   
   
3. Intel SCS integration add-on for MS SCCM – this is just to allow easier integration of Intel SCS with MS SCCM (where Intel SCS takes over the AMT configuration role from MS SCCM native OOB Configuration point role which is not able to configure Intel AMT 9 or newer and/or use Host Based Configuration).
   It is optional – not mandatory –you can still disable automatic SCCM OOB controllers provisioning in SCCM Primary site servers, configure AMT with TLS and AD integration adding Primary Site server AD group to AMT ACL, open AMT listener port (there is tool in AMT SDK)  and simply run OOB AMT discovery from SCCM and then manage it from SCCM.
   Intel SCS add-on for SCCM is simply doing all of it for you by importing ready to use (have to enable for collections) task sequences – it is not modifying Intel SCS /RCS itself at all.
   So attempt to reinstall SCS Add-on was not able to fix  miss deleted  DLL file.
   
   SCS Add on installer is using older MS DLL for importing tasks to SCCM which was changed with the latest MS SCCM 2012 SP2 update so it is just installer that fails (but add on is not installed).
   Intel is working on preparing new version of the SCS add on for SCCM to be published soon (~Q1’2016).
   
   So first fix RCS missing file, double check if RCSserver.exe and ACU.dll files have 2015-10-15 date – which is new fixed version, if not replace those two files with files from SCS 10 fix.zip.
   And then check if you still have AMT task sequences in SCCM and if they work OK (remember you have to replace ACU.dll in  SCCM task sequence files folder)
   If it works it means you have not damaged your task sequences by attempting to  reinstall SCS add on
   
   
4. Intel® Core™ vPro™ processor KVM add-on for System Center Configuration Manager* -adds AMT KVM Viewer app to the management toolset and links it straight to SCCM console right click action menu https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&ProdId=3051&DwnldID=21835
