Sezell Posted August 18, 2020 Report Share Posted August 18, 2020 We're needing to send a HDD with our image to a vendor to be placed on 700+ laptops. We also use a duplicator in our office to occasionally put images on multiple HDDs. My question is, will this work with SmartDeploy. I thought if I shutdown right after the image was applied to the HDD, that it would then be possible to duplicate the drive. But, I think the naming of the system occurs before the shut down, so every system ends up with same name. Is that the case? The reason I suspect this, is that we're ending up with systems having the wrong name, despite it suppose to be pulling the serial using WMI.

Jeff Harris Posted August 18, 2020 Report Share Posted August 18, 2020 The name is generated/specified during the deployment phase, before the restart occurs. It is set into the Answer File for Windows Sysprep that is created by the Deploy Wizard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
