I added an app (Junos Pulse) to the application for post install. It fails.

Deployment summury :

Détails: Application Juniper Junos Pulse returned an unexpected return code 193

APPs Properties

Standard Application

Quiet install command: JunosPulse-x64.msi      (I tried with no switches and with /quiet /passive

Working directory: .\Applications\Juniper Junos Pulse

In my CS.ini I have a commands for redirecting logs to the server. For some reason this machine deployment folder is not listed. Don`t know why... So cannot look into the log.

Any idea how to fix?

HERE is msi HELP. May be I need to add some other switches?

message Windows during audit modus

When starting a virtual machine with WIndows 7 Pro 64 bit into audit modus (pressing CTRL-SHIFT-F3 when starting Windows) WIndows is showing a message: U are possible the victun of illegal software, u must activate windows is the next screen.

Because i am preparing the installation for imaging capture later when finished but never had this message before when working with 32 bit Windows. The version is off course legal, the productkey MAK is put in during deployment of the image.

I work in audit mode but restarting several times. After restarting i come automatically again in audit modus? I press ctrl-shift-f3 every time after a restart but is this nessesairy?

How can i get rid of the message from WIndows that the versionis illegal, or must i ignore the message?

MDT 2013 Inject Drivers Winpe

$

Hi,

When botting WinPE 5 the drivers are beeing injected really slow. We are deploying Windows 200r2 and Windows 2012 R2. There is about 180 MB of drivers files to inject for different server models Hp Proliant G6, G7, IBM 3650 M4, IBM 3650.

Most of the drivers are for Windows 2008 R2 and the IBM 3650 M4, all others needs really few drivers (NIC, Storage).It's takes over 2 hours to copy all drivers on th IBM 3650 M4 and Windows 2008 R2

I know there are probably to many drivers being injected, but in my lab envierment, I had the same amount of drivers being injected and it worked just fine. No errors in the log files, it's just very slow.

Anyone has an idea or hits.

How to verify driver installation

Is there a .log file in the MININT folder that shows that drivers are being deployed from a certain path in MDT. For example, will it show in the logs drivers coming from Out-of-Box Drivers\Win7x64\Dell Inc.\Precision Tower T7810, which is one particular folder in my MDT setup.

bitlocker and mdt 2013

Hello,

I am enabling bitlocker in my MDT deployment using the code below in the CS.ini as well as enabling the bitlocker step in the task sequence, this config does half the job for me. I am hoping someone can help with the rest, below are my current and desired results.

Current Result: Bitlocker begins on the HD, the recovery key is copied to the share drive. However my finish action is to reboot and if I do that bitlocker prompts for the recovery key. I need to be able to reboot the computer while bitlocker is running and not prompt for the recovery key.

Desired Result: Bitlocker begins, the recovery key is copied to the shared drive, and I can reboot the computer as many times as I want while bitlocker is running without prompting me for recovery key.

Blue Screens

Hi,

I am trying to deploy Windows 7 Professional 64-bit with MDT. Some of my areas have abhorrent bandwidth, so imaging over the network is not practical. I created a USB boot key with a complete MDT setup on it. Deploying my image from that key doesn't complete. On the first reboot, the machine blue screens amazingly quickly (I can't see what it says). I'm 99.9% sure it is a driver that is causing the problem, but I don't know which one. I booted the stricken PC with a Linux disk and tried to look for a Minidump file, but there wasn't any. This exact same image works fine on many models when I deploy it regularly over the network with MDT. It is just not working from the USB key. I created a separate deployment share to create the USB key's selection profile. I copied the drivers from the exact same place, and disabled all of the ones that were disabled in the production share, but that didn't seem to work. How can I determine what is causing the blue screens?

Thanks in advance!

Windows won't start pci.sys error 0xc0000098

Hi,

I'm trying to use MDT 2013 to deploy a custom WIM into a VMware workstation virtual machine. I've done this in the past and it worked fine with other images. The file copy part of the deployment works fine until it gets to the first reboot. Then, Windows 7 fails to load with the following message.

"Windows failed to start. A recent hard or software change might be the cause. To fix the problem..."

The file in question is pci.sys (no path given)

Status: 0xc0000098

I have the drivers mapped by hardware model from WMI. VMware virtual platform is not among those models. I tried adding the VMware drivers to Windows PE and my deployment share, but WinPE couldn't even boot the VM at that point, so I had to remove them. How can I edit/diagnose a problem with a file if I can't get the image deployed. The image won't deploy to physical hardware either, blue screens result.

Thanks in advance

No networking adapters found after image capture

$

Hi guys,

I am running Windows Server 2012R2 and have MDT 2013. I am up to the capture part of my deployment process. I created a VM, installed windows onto it using MDT, then put a pause in the task sequence, I then have customised Windows the way I want now I am trying to capture the image by continuing the deployment. It gets right to the end and spits out the .wim file which is the captured image but then errors and says "No networking adapters found, the network drivers for your device are not present". I have looked in log files, I have tried adding drivers directly into the boot image, I have tried everything I can think of but it continues to error. I want it to finish capturing properly so I know I deploying a stable image once the image is captured.

Can anyone through some suggestions around why this is happening and what I could do to fix it?

Cheers

Joel

Boot on ISCSI - MDT Windows 2012 ISO

$
0

Hello All,

We have Windows 2012 ISO built using MDT 2013. This ISO is perfect with all necessary applications, packages, drivers, etc and deployment is fine on all hardware on local disk.

I am required to deploy this ISO over ISCSI LUN on dell hardware...and I am having no idea as to how to make what changes in BIOS settings and MDT ISO.

what I understood is that :

When LUN is presented to physical server and mapped with ISCSI, then, this LUN needs to be selected as primary disk within BIOS settings so that windows can be installed over it (because our MDT is configured to run OS over "disk 0").

once this is done in BIOS - nothing is done from MDT ISO side as it will be as same as installing it over local HDD.

Please see if my understanding is correct..and suggest 

Thanks all!

 

MDT 2012 OEM pre-installation task sequence error - Failed to Copy Media CD to Local Hard Disk for OEM pre-installation

I am having an issue when trying to run a Litetouch OEM Task Sequence from a USB stick.  I am using the RTM version of MDT 2012 and have followed another post which sounds the same as mine http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/mdt/thread/11fcdbf7-4b4c-41e8-a71c-345f4293857e.  Unfortunately I was not able to make it work by recreating the task sequence, media, etc.

I have tried recreating the .iso, and formatting the USB stick, manually partitioning and formatting the partition on the computer.  Somehow it did work one time, but I am not sure why and cannot reproduce the results.

Machines will not complete task sequence during Windows 8.1 deployment

I deploy images using MDT 2013 (LiteTouch) and WDS on a Windows 2008 R2 server.  I can deploy Windows 7 with no problems.  When I try to deploy Windows 8.1 using an image I created from a VM reference box on the same server, I get to 62% (the reboot after the OS is installed) and then it stops.  Once the machine has rebooted, it doesn't even try to complete the task sequence.  Rebooting again has the same result.

In my research about this question, it was suggested that there was a UAC issue with the local administrator account, but I resolved that issue, and I still have the same result.  I was looking at the issue some people have where the network card isn't up when the imaged machine tries to contact the deployment server, but I get no error - the imaged machine never picks up the TS after reboot.  The image successfully completed sysprep during the capture process. 

Does anyone have any ideas on what could be causing this?  Thanks in advance for any help you can give me.

Creating Local Accounts with MDT and Config Mgr OSD: How to?

We are using an MDT 2012 UDI deployment Task Sequence  in Config Mgr 2012. I have attempted to create and add a local account to the administrators group during deployment using both the default unattend.xml and a custom answer file. In both cases this setting is ignored. I am a little confused because other settings I specify in the answer file such as IE home page are preserved after deployment, but the local account is never created.

Is this possible to do via the method I am describing or is there another method I must use?

Updating Media Content - stuck at Reset Read Only Attributes.

I'm currently using - MDT 2010 on Windows 7 on a Virutal Machine. I deploy my images using a USB stick. (Advanced Configuration / Media). The process of creating a selection profile, Creating Media, and updating my media works perfectly.

I wanted to move to MDT 2012 SP1 on Server 2008 R2 platform. So I installed AIK, MDT 2012 SP1, etc on a Server 2008 R2 Virtual Machine. I setup the MDT same way as my current working model and it was looking good. Next I created my Selection Profile and Media. Then when I ran "Update Media" it seems to work until it gets stuck at the last process "Reset Read Only Attributes"

Looking for any advice on why it might keep getting stuck here. The only way I can exit the process it to "Stop Execution"

Reminder - on my Win 7 / MDT 2010 box, it works fine and this process completes.

Thanks for any feedback.

I can complete the copy phase of the content from USB to Local drive without any problem.

MDT 2013 Install Windows 8.1 Reference Image stuck at Login Screen after Reboot

Hello all,

I've captured a Windows 8.1 Reference Image as shown in following document: technet.microsoft.com/de-de/library/dn744290.aspx

The Reference Image contains only Microsoft Office 2013 and the latest Windows Updates. When I import the Reference Image into my deployment share and deploy it to one client, the operating system will be installed correctly, but after the restart, I get to the Windows 8.1 login screen and nothing happens anymore.

Did you ever heard of that issue? Is there a solution?

Thanks in advance.

USMT block wallpaper Windows XP to 7 migration

Hello,

I'm in a migration process from Windows XP to Windows 7. I use USMT 4 to transfer user files and configurations. However, we have a policy that change the wallpaper with one blank with custom information about the computer.

When I run scanstate, it restores everything fine, but it restore also the old wallpaper with the wrong informations. Then, new informations are applied on this wallpaper, and everything is unreadable.

I would like to force USMT to not backup the old wallpaper. Any ideas ?

Thanks!
