How to install roles and features via a script linked to an OU, to automate server builds

Hi all
I like to automate the installation of roles and features applied to servers via GPO script.
For my bare metal 2008 R2 installations, a simple .cmd script with something similar to below...
ServerManagerCmd.exe -install NET-Framework-Core Hyper-V Desktop-Experience SNMP-Service -restart
...added to the RunOnce registry key via GPO would deliver Roles and Features reliably.
This method does not work for me in 2012 R2. I've spent a day searching the internet. I cannot find a guide. I assume I need to use Powershell now. I am uncertain if signing scripts is a requirement for this to work for me? Please
could you let me know a method to automate the installation of Roles and Features to 2012 R2 via scripts delivered to bare metal servers via GPO.

I think you would do better by posting in the Windows 2012 forum. The issue is more likely that the exact name of the service or package has changed.
There are new tools in 2012 to install features and roles. I do not think they can be run from a GPO.
Here are the instructions:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh831809.aspx
They show you explicitly how to discover the available Features and Roles on 2012 and how to use PowerSHell to install them.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Install Roles and Features Behavior MDT 2013

I'm setting up a Task Sequence in MDT 2013 to try out installing Windows 8.1 for the first time. We need to add .NET Framework 3.5 so I thought I'd add a Install Roles and Features step in the State Restore section to take care of that.
When I kick off the Task Sequence, I now see a new dialog that shows the Install Roles and Features for me to choose from. Didn't I just create a step for this? Why is it showing up asking me for my choices when I already specified what I needed? I thought
maybe I messed up adding the step in my Task Sequence but after checking, it's still there enabled. Will .NET try and install twice now? I have never seen the new dialog before.
After some testing I found that if I disabled the step I added, I no longer get the Install Roles and Features dialog at the beginning. Is this expected behavior or am I missing something?

Sandy, this is known behavior when adding Roles and Features from the task sequence. Leave your TS step as is and add
SkipRoles=YES to the customsettings.ini file.

I have narrowed this issue down to .net 3.5 install.
I have boot, efi, sources, support, autorun, bootmgr, bootmgr.edi, and setup.
I have confirmed that the sxs folder is there.
I also just added WindowsSource=%DeployRoot%\Operating Systems\Windows Server 2012 R2 SERVERSTANDARDCORE x64\sources\sxs to my customsettings and updated the boot iso. I am still receiving the errors.
One last bit of information I am able to get to the deployment share with the sxs folder in it from the reference machine I am creating but when I manually try to install .net 3.5 from roles and features to the share it fails. But if I copy the files local
they work fine.
I seem to have permission issues with other subfolders also.
Thanks,
Anthony

Server Manager error 0x80070422 - Roles and features are not accesible

Hi
I cannot view Roles and Features in Server Manager on my Server 2008 R2 box. The error is:

Hi,
Please try to install Windows Server 2008 R2 Service Pack 1 directly and check the result. Service Pack 1 for Windows Server 2008 R2 includes all the
previous released Windows Updates and hotfixes.
If it does not work, you will need to copy these files from another working Windows Server 2008 R2 system to replace the corrupt ones.
Otherwise, you will need to perform an In-Place upgrade to repair the system.

how to install plugin and exta filter in photoshop cs ? and any special filter for special effects ?
kindly recommend me any best one and tel me step by step how i will add more plugins n filters

A Plug_in normally come with an installer or install instructions. Check the documentation for the plug-in you trying to install. It sounds like you don't know what plug-ins you want to install. In that case you don't need to install any. At some point you may read about a plug-in and what it can do and feel you have a need for it. Then you will have a reason to install a plug-in that is not installed by default. There may also be a cost involved most worthwhile plug-ins are not free.
Adobe Optional Plug_ins downloads are Plugins Adobe want to remove from Photoshop and no longer install by default. Also at some point in time these will no longer install into the current Photoshop for Adobe will remove feature or interfaces the use. For example the CS5 optional plugins will install in Windows CS6 perpetual version 13.0.1.3 but not in Subscription version 13.1.2 or perpetual Mac version 13.0.6 fot its 64bit only and the Mac CS5 optional plug-in for Picture package is only a 32bit plug-in.
You will need to keep and maintain old versions of Photoshop if Adobe remove features you use in new versions of Photoshop.

Hello, I have long been using Mozilla Firefoh, but I can't restore a theme (in the browser before I used the theme in anime), I do not remember how to install it and where to find, maybe it was not a topic, and skin. Please help me solve this problem.

(in the browser before I used the theme in anime), I do not remember how to install it and where to find, maybe it was not a topic, and skin.

The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.

How to Install XI and EP on Single server

Hi,
How to install XI and EP on same server. I tried to install XI then EP . After EP installed then iam not able to access XI j2ee engine . I think some where port conflicts . I gave system number for XI : 00 and EP : 02
Can any one help for this. Where did i made mistake.
Thanks
Kristene

Hi Kristene,
I have installed XI and EP on the same server (for test purposes) without any problems, so it should be possible. I installed them in a different order (first EP then XI), but I don't think that matters much.
The only real difference is that I kept the system number the same.
What do you mean exactly with not being able to access the XI j2ee engine? How did you try to access it?
Regards,
Martin
