I am just leaving them in, as I found in the past major issues when messing with them.  I do have some GPO's though that push a custom start menu and desktop from some users.

Thanks for the reply, I will have a look and see what I can leave in.

for 1709 I had to start over from scratch for my images.

@tim.cummings@juhsd.net 

Out of interest, how are you managing the built in apps? Are you leaving them or stripping them, and if you're stripping them how are you achieving that with Smart Deploy. Thanks.

After returning to work today, both the machines have completed imaging over the weekend.

What in the logs would tell me that issue so I can take a look at it?

Thanks

I have deployed it to 2 different model of laptop and to a desktop and all are hanging on "Getting Ready" I left them on Friday at 17:00 and will see if they completed tomorrow.

I deployed it to a virtual machine and it worked ok.

Hi.

If you are using an unatended file you can delete the domain name used to join the domain and then it will ask you to enter the domain name in the same section as the part where you define the computer name, so you can enter it each time.

 <network_identification skip="0">
      <computer_name />
      <!-- 0 = Domain, 1 = Workgroup -->
      <membership>0</membership>
      <domain>REMOVE WHAT IS HERE</domain>
      <domain_options>
        <option></option>
      </domain_options>

Hi,

Having issues deploying this as a fresh install on machines, it hangs on "Getting Ready"

So far I have been waiting 12 hours for it to install on 3 machines.

Created using 2.0.2097

Deploying from an external hard drive using the most up to date driver packs for the units. If I deploy an earlier version it works just fine.

Thanks

Hi, 

Any update on this? I am happy to make a separate thread but didn't want to clutter the board.

Thanks

Hi,

Sorry to jump on this thread but I didn't see the need to start a new one as my issue is with a T460s driver pack.

I have deployed the T460s Windows 7 x64 driver pack with my image and its blue screening. I tried it with the windows 10 x64 pack and that worked fine so i presume its an issue with the platform pack.

I cant get access to the hard drive so getting the log will be difficult (unless you have a way to export it to another share/external drive as part of the image process?)

Would appreciate if you could take a look at the pack and see if there is something not working in there. I have updated to the newest version of the pack and the newest version of smart deploy, version 2.0.2000

Thanks

Hi,

Almost a year on and no update.

Please can you confirm if this is any closer to being supported?

Thanks,

Paul

Thanks Erik,

Is there an ETA for the release of the updated SmartDeploy?

Thanks,

Paul

Hi,

We are trying to add a boot environment into SCCM 2012 SP1 but we are getting the following error:



Just to add, the install of SCCM 2012 SP1 is an upgrade from SCCM 2012.

Thanks,
Paul

The reinstall fixed it, strange as i had already done that but glad its working now

Thanks for your help, Erik.

Thanks Erik,

Can you let me know where to find the capture.log please?

Also I have noticed since the time of posting that the SmartVDKSrv doesn't appear in my Device manager.

Thanks,

Paul

Something else to add is that the OS that SD is installed on is Windows 7 x64.

Not sure if that will make a difference.

Hi,

I moved machines and copied my virtual machines over to the new one. I am now getting the following error when I try and capture the image.

I have looked at this Blog Entry but it hasn't helped as the path is well under the max characters (its the same path as where it was before on my old machine, has no snapshots and deleting the SmartVDKSrv didn't help.

Here is where the VM is located: C:\Temp\_Smart Deploy\VMs\Windows 7 x64\Windows 7 x64.vmdk

Any suggestions would be great.

Thanks.

Paul

Hi Erik,

Apologies that I've not got back to you sooner.

I have the deploy.log from C:/Windows/Debug but there is nothing int he minidump folder. Will the debug.log be sufficiant?

Thanks,

Paul

Thanks Erik,

I am using the Platform Packs from the website and have not created my own, yet.

• I am deploying Windows XP x86
  
• I will try no platform pack now and post back the results
  

As always, thanks for your help.

Paul

Hi,

I have deployed my image VIA SmartDeploy around 60 times with no failures at all but I have come to deploy it to a HP EliteBook 2540p and HP EliteBook 8440p and both of these models bluescreen on shutdown or restart.

I have done some research on the error message and number that was given, which is 0x0000009F DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE, and Microsoft suggests that it is a failure with a driver.

Have you come across this before? I would rather not have to create the Platform Packs again from scratch so if anyone has a work around that would be very helpful.

Thanks,

Paul

Excellent, look forward to using the new release.

Sorry to bump an old thread but is there a way to have everything unattended apart from the computer name?

Hi Erik,

I've just burnt it to a standard 4.7GB DVD fine.

The platform pack in using is for the Lenovo x220 laptop and is 227MB so it should all be under 5GB.

I also extracted the ISO that was created and copied it over to the USB drive and it was fine - it just wont let me do it from within the app itself.

It's no biggy, just thought I'd point it out.

thanks for your response.

Paul

Hey,

Got a little issue in that Media Wizard is saying that my 8GB NTFS formatted USB drive doesn't have enough free space to to take the image but the .WIM file is 4GB

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Hi Erik,

All working ok, I had it in a folder with a typo which is why it wasn't able to find it.

It's in the Windows folder now so the command: wscript.exe T:\Windows\locale.vbs works a treat.

Thanks again,

Paul
