$
0
0

Hello,

I am "In Training" and MDT is new to me.

I am running MDT on a MS Win 10 64 Bit

C:\ is my OS, D:\ is dedicated to MDT

My goal is to optimize my imaging and capture as few times as possible for the current image I am making.

What steps might be suggested for first stage

Requirements:

No joining of Domain at this time

.net install

Visual C++ installs of all versions

Add 3 local user accounts

install chrome

install iTunes

Install a web print app

Create a admin tools folder in C:\Windows

Configure IE and Chrome auto-fill, home page, menu bars

Set Desktop BG, Lock BG and login

Change various settings, privacy settings, apps access

Set a few local group policy settings to lock down a few options in the OS and IE / Chrome

Copy administrator profile as default

Thank You


Adding multiple options to a Section in the CustomSettings.ini file

Ok, I am trying to customize MDT to automatically set the PC name.  I have gotten it to work but I need to display the different computer types as part of the naming convention.  At the organization we use lenovo's but ZTIGather does not give me the option to  display the type, you know.... T450, X250 and such. Example

(L=Laptop)(Model Type=X250)(Serial Number)

I got mdt to display one model type by using this as an example

[Section]

Subsection=Model-%Product%

ComputerModel=T450

I need to figure out how to do this for the rest of the 60+ model types that we have in the org.

Hi,

I am using SCCM 2012 and I integrated MDT 2013 Update 2.

What I ddi :

1. I created a package for the lp.cab

2. I created a TS variable and I getting LanguageValue via UDI Wizard.

3. I had the "Install Languages Packs Offilne" inot my MDT TS.

When the installation running, I see the lp.cab downlaoding during windows installation.

The issue is: When Windows 7 ins installed, I do not have the language pack installed. When I open the Control Panel, only english is available.

Any ideas ? 

It will much appreciate if you can give me some hints.

MDT 2013 Update 2 Splitting WIM issue

$

0

So I have started using MDT 2013 Update 2 with the Windows 10 ADK (not the 1511 build). When I change the setting to Split the WIM file so I can use it with UEFI devices It runs through the media creation process but fails after splitting the WIM file.

It seems to fail because it is unable to find the original WIM file at the tail end. It is truncating the name of my WIM file and unable to find it to proceed.

Hi i have enable in MDT 2013U2 the installation of .Net3.5 The Package are in the deploymentshare folder, Packages.

I've followed that https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/mniehaus/2015/09/02/adding-net-framework-to-windows-10-using-mdt-2013-update-1/

When deploying W10 it's good and everything works fine, but when i deploy W7 it failed cause that package is not intended for W7...i was assuming that MDT would skip that section?

Is there a way to skip that section for W7 but not W10 or is there any other way i could correct that error?

Thanks

MDT and using virtual machine for reference computer - Do I need to add my physical PC NIC driver to stop from being prompted for Deploy share at every reboot?

Hello,

MDT and using virtual machine for reference computer - Do I need to add my physical PC NIC driver to to stop from being prompted for Deploy share at every reboot?

I have Virtualbox networking set as Bridged to my Nic on physical PC.

( I'm not sure if I have this setup correctly because with it set this way then I thought I would be allowing reference VM access to Internet and I thought I do not want to do that?)

I boot from PEx86.iso, it starts imaging, reboots and asks for \\server\deploymentshare$ credentials.

I do this for several reboots and it finishes and captures the image, but I want to know how to make the reboots / credentials persistent and not ask for credentials every reboot.

Thank You.

Please advise as to the simplest way of achieving this!

Thank you!

MDT 2013 U2 on SBS 2008

Hello,

We have a customer who is a year away from upgrading their server environment and would like a Windows 10 SOE. Their main server is an SBS 2008 virtual machine.

We created a basic deployment share based on Windows 10 / MDT 2013 U2 but WinPE simply hangs forever on the Microsoft Deployment Toolkit background screen. There is some CPU usage at the first minute but then nothing.

Looking at the WinPE instance's BDD.log it ends with the following lines:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I noticed under System Requirements MDT supports 2008 R2 at minimum but I was wondering if that's indeed the issues and if there's any way to get this working at all?

Thanks in advance


MDT 2013 Update 2 issue - Unable to mount Wim

Hello,

I have updated my deployment share to MDT 2013 update 2. This tools is installed on windows server 2012 R2.

After this update, i'm not able to update deploymentshare.I have a error message on mount winpe.wim.

"Unable to mount the WIM, so the update process cannot continue".

I have tried many things, reinstall windows 10 ADK, change version of Deployment share then upgrade again, nothing works.

I don't have any other idea.

Could you help me please ?


MDT 2013 Update 2 is not splitting .wim

Hello all,

I'm Trying to make an UEFI offline media USB with MDT 2013 Update 2

The .wim size that I want to deploy is 4.32GB although I've set "SkipWimSplit" to False in :

  •  %DeployRoot%\Controls\Settings.xml
  •  %MediaRoot%\Content\Deploy\Controls\Settings.xml

MDT just copy my .wim file without splitting it but I can't copy it after on a FAT32 USB drive.

What should I do to make it work ?


PC's imaged via MDT are making calls back to MDT Server

Over 6000 PC's have been imaged via MDT in our environment. If i look at our MDT server's Open Files (Within computer management), at any time there is any number of PC's connected to"..\Deploymentshare\Application\\insertexehere.exe. Yet I cannot figure out why!? Its causing lots of chatter and network congestion.  Those systems make calls to the .exe and drop that connection in moments.

Massive problem deploying Windows 10 to Dell Latitude E5450

$

We're using MDT 2013 Update 2 with WDS on a Windows Server 2012 R2. We have a mixed enviroment with Windows 7 and just started moving over to Windows 10. Over all everything works more or less as it should. But specifically with Dell Latitude E5450 we have massive problems. Deployment constantly fails at some (random) point in about 65-75% of all computers we have tried to install windows 10 on (about 200 E5450's so far). And this is bare-metal installations. Not upgrades.

The most common error is "bddrun has stopped working". This occurs on random applications when ever the computer feels like it. Also every now and then application installations fails with an error message claiming that another installations is already running or that reboot is needed. And as I said; It varies exactly where the errors occurs. It's not always on the same application/step.

And sometimes the computer tries to swith to wireless network mid-deployment, so it stops. Sometimes it installs 2 or 3 applications and then suddenly it fails with error message "unable to set working directory".

All computers get the same Win10 REF-image and is deployed with the exact same Win10 task sequence. We have about 40 different computer models in our enviroment. Mixed with Dell, HP, Lenovo, Microsoft Surface etc. But Dell Latitude E5450 is the only model that acts this way with Windows 10.

I've managed to fix some hiccups by completely removing all Windows 10 E5450 drivers from the MDT (we're using total control driver assignment btw) and letting Windows 10 install it's own drivers instead.
If I imported Dell's driver CAB for the E5450 to the MDT I got some weird errors when Windows 10 decided to start updating all drivers mid-deployment.

So... I've been rambling on for a while now and I'm sorry for that. I guess my question is this: Is there anyone else out there that has any experience in deploying Windows 10 to the Dell Latitude E5450 using MDT 2013 Update 2? I'm at a loss here.

//Andreas

===================

EDIT 2016-03-31

I found a somewhat acceptable workaround to the problem. I just added a step to my task sequence that completely kills and disables the Windows Update service, disables store updates and then restart the computer before the application installation begins.  Then once all applications are installed i've added another step that enables and starts the windows update service and store updates again.


Trying to create MDT image for HP z240 getting driver error message

Hello we have a boot image that works fine for our HP Z420 through PXE boot to install windows 7 but on our Z240 small form factor models we get an error.

The error is

"A connection to the deployment share ((\\(company server)\DeploymentShare$) could not be made.

The following networking device did not have a driver installed.

PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_15B7&Subsys_802E103C&Rev_31

Retry: Try again to connect to the deployment share

Cancel: Give up: cancelling any in-progress task sequence.

I already tried inserting what I believe is the OEM driver into both the deployment share out of box drivers folders and also into the driver package section of WDS and injecting those drivers into the lite touch image. However I still get the same error...

I was using e1d62x64.INF from a z240 machine using the OEM installation. The adapter reads I219-LM....but yeah I still cant get it to work.

After installing the MDT 2013 Update 2 patch, my Windows 10 Upgrade TS seems to have broken. After toying around for a bit, I found if I DESELECT the option in the TS to "Dynamically update Windows Setup with Windows Update" the TS completes. If I check this box, it fails with the following:

MDT 2013 Task Sequence

I'm attempting to run a PowerShell Script Task Sequence step, but I'm getting the error"No mapping between account names and security IDs was done."

The command I using is: Get-CIMInstance -ClassName Win32_ComputerSystem

I believe it's due to the account privileges that is executing the script.  Any idea on how I can get this command to execute?

Thank you!

Capture username of user who authenticated to network share

$

Here's the scoop.  I've got an MDT Task Sequence setup to run this PoSH script I created for our enterprise environment.  Since we are scattered with A LOT of different IT Specialists in branch offices using a central deployment share updated by a robocopy script every quarter, I would like to capture the user who authenticates into the MDT Deployment share so we as admins can communicate with them that they  need to update their driver database for the specific model with driver bangs.

Can anyone think of a way to capture and store the username of the individual connected to the deployment share at the time of imaging?

Thanks!
