Cannot run DCU succesfully from a SCCM Task Sequence

I am trying to provide a Task Sequence in SCCM so users can run Dell Command Update themselves.

 

I have created a short script to do so:

start /wait ""  "C:\Program Files (x86)\Dell\CommandUpdate\dcu-cli.exe" /import /policy C:\ProgramData\Dell\CommandUpdate\MySettings.xml
if %ERRORLEVEL% == 0 goto RUNDCU
    else goto QUITTASK

:RUNDCU
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Dell\CommandUpdate\dcu-cli.exe" /log C:\ProgramData\Dell\DCU.log /silent

:QUITTASK
exit /b %ERRORLEVEL%

the script works fine when i run it manually and DCU installs updates but when i run it from SCCM it errors out:

Do you have an internet proxy that blocks traffic running under SYSTEM context?  When you test your script, are you using SYSTEM context or User Context?

I've had issues running DCU-CLI in a TS, but have been able to overcome it with "interesting" command lines.  I have not seen your particular error though.

I've got the same issue, and trouble finding an answer.   The same script I'm using in the TS works in a full OS.

If an answer has been found, it would be great if it was shared

I'm running into the same issue

Have tried tweaking the command line and script every which way

Have left it running as SYSTEM as well as had DCU-CLI.exe run as domain admin

Have tried v2.4.0, 2.3.1, and 2.3.0 yet the issue persists

Only happens in a task sequence

Got any answers Dell?
