How do I create a user using Windows system image manager?

My goal is to have a reference image that I can install on machines for several different companies. The image needs to have an identical user for all the computers that I will install to. Here is the unattend file. As it is, it creates an administrator
account, with the password I chose. But it does not give the profile the name I want to give it.

  • Trying to Create a Catalog file using WSIM (Windows System Image Manager)

    I have been looking online for a solution to htis problem for days and come up with nothing so any help would be amazingly helpful.
    I have created a Windows 8.1 image which I would like to role out to all users within my company but when trying to create a catalog file I am getting an erorr message saying "Windows SIM was unable to generate a catalog."  It says "Mounting
    Windows Image file......This might take a few minutes" and then fails after 6-7mins.
    When opening the log file I get this:

    The one image that did work (LiteTouchPE_x64.wim) was from the OS I imported to Microsoft Workbench but the components are different to any that I have seen online when looking on how to do this.
    I have made sure that the architecture is x64 and tried from ISO files I have on the system already but get the same error.
    This is the first project I have been involved in and only ever done IT support before this.
    Thanks for your help in advance.

    WSIM Version
    Surprising that it fails on the cleaning up portion, after mounting, serializing and un-mounting the Image.
    Is there an updated version of AIK or WSIM that needs to be used?

    It uses a new image format. The DISM and imaging api from even version 6.3.x (win 8.1) won't be able to access it. 
    But I think it's got some issues.  I can do a get-windowsimage -ImagePath install.wim and see the images, but dism /image:install.wim /? says "Unable to access the image.  Same with the boot wim.

  • Windows System Image Manager Error?

    Hi Everyone,
      I am having an issue trying to create an answer file through the WSIM. I locate the .wim I need and attempt to create the catalog file it needs first to do the task. However when I do attempt to create this catalog file I get the following error message:
    There was an error generating a catalog file for the image ********* in Windows image file G:\RemoteInstall\Images\*******\*******.wim   
    Keep in mind the *** are just substitutes for the actual names.
    If I attempt to just create a new answer file I am prompted with the message box "Editing an answer file without opening a Windows Image will result in limited functionality. Do you want to open a Windows image file now?
    I choose yes then open the image and am informed -
       "The catalog file for ******** cannot be opened for the following reason: Cannot fine the catalog file associated with the Window image ****.  You must have a valid catalog file to continue. Do you want to create a catalog file?"
    I click yes and then I get the same message as list on top. I am an admin on this box. Any thoughts or suggestions?
     Thanks in advance for your input.

    Hi,
    First I would like to confirm if you are using the latest version of WAIK –WAIK 1.1. If not, I suggest installing WAIK 1.1 from the following site:
    Automated Installation Kit (AIK) for Windows Vista SP1 and Windows Server 2008
    http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=94bb6e34-d890-4932-81a5-5b50c657de08&DisplayLang=en
    In addition, please make sure you are generating a catalog file for a install.wim file. You cannot generate a catalog file for a boot.wim file.
    Because of the changes in the servicing stack in Windows Vista with Service Pack 1 (SP1) and Windows Server 2008, Windows System Image Manager (Windows SIM) cannot create catalog files for some Windows images of different architecture types. The following list describes the Image Manager architecture types and catalogs that can be created for each one.
    x86 Windows SIM:
    Can create catalogs for x86, x64, and Itanium-based Windows images.
    x64 Windows SIM:
    Can create catalogs only for x64 Windows images.
    Itanium-based Windows SIM:
    Can create catalogs only for Itanium-based Windows images. 
    Please confirm if what version of Windows SIM you are using. I recommend installing x86 Windows SIM.
    For more information, please refer to the following thread:

  • Windows System Image Manager doesn't see any ISO image

    I am training for the 70-680 and am trying to create an answer file in Windows System Image Manager.  When I click "File" and try to select an ISO image, none of my ISO files appear although I can see the rest of the files in the share.
     What am I missing?
    I need a vacation.

    You can see in the GUI for WSIM that you can only open .clg (catalog) or .wim (windows image) when opening a Windows image.

  • How to install forms 6i runtime using windows Systems Management Server?

    Hi,
    Our clinents are using oracle forms 5 application and we want to upgrade to forms 6i ( client /server ).

    using windows systems management server instead of installing one by one manually.
    Regards

    Here is a quick summary on why this works...
    The Problem:
    The issue relies with the method and logic that MDT’s scripts use to query and validate that the proper disks, partitions and storage space reside before starting the installation of Windows.
    Essentially what you have configured in the Task Sequence and the UNATTEND.xml is analyzed by the MDT scripts then a validation is completed against the hardware in which you wish to install Windows
    on and if there are any errors you will be prompted with MDT Error or Warning dialogs.
    The problem is that the MDT scripts use WMI to query the hard disk, partition and free space requirements for Windows, but in the case of using GPT disk, the 2nd partition (MSR) that you have to create
    is hidden. The class that WMI uses for its query can’t see the MSR partition so instead of 3 partitions, it returns 2 in the query results; hence why DISK 0 PARTITION 3 doesn’t work as mentioned earlier when configured in the MDT Task Sequence.
    Although the above still confuses me as to why it works with DISK 0 PARTITION 2 since the WMI query results return PARTITION IDs 0 and 1 when it should return 1 and 2…
    The Windows Pre-Installation Environment however does see all 3 partitions correctly and we tried configuring in our Task Sequence to install Windows to DISK 0 and PARTITION 2 and in the UNATTEND.xml
    file to install Windows to DISK 0 and PARTITION 3 but due to timing issues of the way Windows installs with MDT, did this not work for us.

  • How can you create a user using mbean

    Or if you already created a user via console,
    how can you access it with mbean ?
    what is the domain, and type etc?
    Thanks
    netatta

    Thanks Wayne. I'll have to try that. Although I'm wondering, doesn't Oracle have plans to use one-way password encryption at some point? making this method of password retrieval break?
    I've also found the following article. It talks about how the OIM API can get an authenticated user session from the authenticated WLS session. It's tantalizing! But doesn't really match my use case or reveal the inner mechanics of how the OIM API gets what it needs from WLS; and therefore I don't think I can subvert that mechanism to do impersonation.
    http://fusionsecurity.blogspot.com/2013/01/authenticating-oim-apis-without-end.html
    Another approach I'm looking at, which works if all i want to do is fire up a session for one specific user (e.g. an unprivileged service account), is to use creds (username and password) stored in the WLS Credential Store (CSF). See appendix A in:
    http://www.oracle.com/webfolder/technetwork/tutorials/obe/fmw/oim/oim_11g/developing_oim_custom_approval_process_for_resource_provision/developing_oim_custom_approval_process_for_resource_provision.pdf

  • How to control permissions in KM using File System Repository Manager

    Hello everybody
    I have a scenario with 15+ file servers which content needs to be mapped into Portal KM as read-only.
    Windows Authentication is configured on the portal, so the users don't need to supply the portal with username/password.
    Now the users are of course only allowed to see the same content in the portal as they can see on the file servers. I know that the permission mapping can be done using a File System Repository Manager with W2KSecurityManager, but in that case the users will have to maintain the mapping of rights from windows to portal manually. And with ever-changing passwords this is too big an administrative task. So I am looking for another solution.
    My question is therefore:
    How can you configure the File System Repository Manager in a way where it the user does not need to maintain "user mapping" manually, but only need to logon to the portal (through windows authentication) and can see the same files from the portal as he/she can see from the file servers.
    Can this information in some way be taken from the configured Windows Authentication? Or is the only solution to enable WebDav on the file servers and and follow the "Integration of Windows File Servers into the SAP KM platform Using SSO and the WebDAV Repository Manager"-guide?
    Any help will be rewarded.
    Best regards,
    Martin Søgaard

    Hi again Dirk
    I just studied the "Integration of Windows File Servers into the SAP KM platform using SSO and the WebDAV repository manager"-guide in depth and I don't quite understand what rights the cmadmin_service and notificator_service are supposed to be given in the Active Directory. In the guide it says:
    "A number of global services and repository services need to perform operations on resources in various repositories. For example, the index management service must read all resources it is meant to index. When an index is created, the service user index_service is used. Therefore, this user has to have at least read access to all repositories that are to be indexed. Other users that are used by the SAP KM platform are the service users notificator_service and cmadmin_service. When a search is taking place, it is the user that is currently logged on to the portal."
    I dont quite understand what the two service users are doing but more importantly, I need to give the two service users the correct permissions in the Active Directory (or through user mapping). I understand that index_service only needs read_only permissions, but what permissions should the cmadmin_service and notificator_service be given?
    Best regards,
    Martin

  • What/Where is the 32-bit version of Windows System Image Manager?

    I'm running into the problem described as follows in the WAIK documentation:  "Windows SIM fails to create a catalog for a 32-bit Windows image from a 64-bit version of Windows SIM. To workaround this issue, use the 32-bit version of Windows SIM to
    create catalogs for your Windows images."
    Question: Where is the 32-bit version of Windows SIM? I can only find a single download for "The Windows® Automated Installation Kit (AIK) for Windows® 7"
    Or are the 32-bit tools included in that version? If so, how do I use those instead?

    Hi,
    The issue should occurs when you install the WAIK on a 64bit Windows 7 machine.
    You need install WAIK on a 32bit machine.
    Different binary versions of Windows SIM cannot create catalog files for some Windows images of different architecture types. We recommend using the
    32-bit version of Windows SIM to create catalog files because this version can create catalogs for all Windows image architecture types. The following list describes the Windows SIM architecture types and catalogs that can be created for each Windows
    image architecture type.
    x86 Image Manager. Can
    create catalogs for x86, x64, and Itanium-based Windows images.
    x64 Image Manager. Can
    create catalogs only for x64 Windows images.
    Itanium-based Image Manager.
    Can create catalogs only for Itanium-based Windows images.

    Hi,
    You can try nl-nl, and before you can configure language settings, the appropriate language must be installed and configured in the Windows image
    Add a Language Pack to a Windows Image
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc722424(v=ws.10).aspx
    And if you're using an English image, then more change on the answer file is needed, hope this thread will be helpful ( reply posted by Dale Qiao)

  • Change catalog location of Windows System Image Manager

    I can't build the catalog of my image because it takes up 20 gigs and fills the hard drive. Can I change the working directory of the program to a drive with more space?
    Tools > create catalog > select wim > cooks for about 10 minutes, and eats up all space on C:\ > fails because of lack of disk space.
    If I could make it use F:\ it could play with 400 gb instead of my ssd. And yes, the selected wim is on F:\
    Moving the executables to F:\ (imgmgr.exe and dlls) doesn't change that it wants to use C:
    Do I need to change some pagefile settings around?

    Hi UpTide,
    When creating the catalog, imgmgr.exe will mount the WIM file in current user's temp folder, which is under {%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Temp}. See this picture:
    For the Temp file location, we could change it through the following two way:
    Navigate to Control Panel\System and Security\System, on the left side, click the
    Advanced system settings, on the Advanced tab, click
    Environment Variables at the right bottom, see:
    Edit both the TEMP and TMP file location (value input) to the same location that you wanted, click OK.
    Or
    we may edit the TEMP and TMP value with registry:
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Environment
    On the right pane, change the above two values with the same location.
    After that reboot to check if issue still insists.
    Best regards

  • Downloading Windows Update Packages for inclusion with System Image Manager

    Is there a tool other than WSUS or SCCM that can download all Windows 8.1 updates for use with System Image Manager? I would like to deploy the updates along with the OS, custom drivers, and custom applications.
    www.annabooks.com / www.seanliming.com / Book Author - Pro Guide to WE8S, Pro Guide to WES 7, Pro Guide to POS for .NET

    Hi Sean Liming ,
    The main purpose is to download all the updates for specific system version image ,right ?
    I haven`t heared about such an official released tool to do this .
    As for the API ,I have found a tool based on this API developed by our MSDN guys to install the updates ,but I am afraid it doesn`t meet your need.

  • How do I create a user, in my context in OID using the Java API

    How do I create a user, with subschema, in my context in OID using the JAVA API
    I need to be able to create new users in my OID, I was doing it in our old iPlant Directory, but I don't seem to see the same methods in the Oracle LDAP API. I figured out how to get and modify the attributes of a user, but I can't seem to figure out how to add a new one.

    Try this code , modify it accordingly
    ------- cut here -------
    import oracle.ldap.util.*;
    import oracle.ldap.util.jndi.*;
    import javax.naming.NamingException;
    import javax.naming.directory.*;
    import java.io.*;

    final static String rootdn = "cn=orcladmin";
    final static String rootpass = "welcome1";
    public static void main(String argv[]) throws NamingException
    // Create the connection to the ldap server
    InitialDirContext ctx = ConnectionUtil.getDefaultDirCtx(ldapServerName,
    ldapServerPort,
    rootdn,

    Subscriber mysub = null;
    String [] mystr = null;
    try {
    RootOracleContext roc = new RootOracleContext(ctx);
    mysub = roc.getSubscriber(ctx, Util.IDTYPE_DN, "o=dec", mystr);
    catch (UtilException e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
    // Create ModPropertySet with user information
    ModPropertySet mps = new ModPropertySet();
    mps.addProperty(LDIF.ATTRIBUTE_CHANGE_TYPE_ADD,"cn", "Steve.Harvey");
    mps.addProperty(LDIF.ATTRIBUTE_CHANGE_TYPE_ADD,"sn", "Harvey");
    mps.addProperty(LDIF.ATTRIBUTE_CHANGE_TYPE_ADD,"uid", "SHarvey");
    mps.addProperty(LDIF.ATTRIBUTE_CHANGE_TYPE_ADD,"givenname", "Steve");

  • How to create a user using XML and specifying addional attributes that are objects

    I'm trying to create a user using XML and specifying some attributes that are objects and not sure how to do it. How would I set the DirectoryUserAcl to Public?
    Here's the xml file:
    <?xml version = '1.0' standalone = 'yes'?>
    <SimpleUser>
    <UserName>mike2</UserName>
    <Password>abc123</Password>
    <AdminEnabled>false</AdminEnabled>
    <HomeFolderRoot>/home</HomeFolderRoot>
    <HasContentQuota>false</HasContentQuota>
    <DirectoryUserAcl> ??? </DirectoryUserAcl>
    <DefaultAclBundleAcl> ??? </DefaultAclBundleAcl>
    <HomeFolderPolicyBundleAcl> ??? </HomeFolderPolicyBundleAcl>
    </SimpleUser>

    I figured out the answer:
    <?xml version = '1.0' standalone = 'yes'?>
    <SimpleUser>
    <UserName>mike2</UserName>
    <Password>abc123</Password>
    <AdminEnabled>false</AdminEnabled>
    <HomeFolderRoot>/home</HomeFolderRoot>
    <HasContentQuota>false</HasContentQuota>
    <DirectoryUserAcl classname="SystemAccessControlList" refType="name">Public</DirectoryUserAcl>
    </SimpleUser>
