Policy retreiving for client that is pxe booting

Wanna ask, to which management point server does a client will retrieve its policy prior to executing the TS? Does it based on the ip address boundary range?
Which logfile I can see to reoubleshoot client pxe issue? is it smspxe.log?

Short answer is:  it doesn't.  But we have to break down what's happening.
Remember when you PXE boot you are actually operating at Layer 2 still, and the WDS services are answering a broadcast.  So no MP enters the picture before a TS runs _at_all_, instead it's the Distribution Point (which controls the WDS/PXE services
in 2012) that is connecting to the client and providing the TS.
You can actually see this happening on the SMSPXE.log (I'm going from memory on the log name, sorry if i got it wrong) in the SMS_DP$\sms\logs when the PXE servive gets the mac, matches it against the DB then provides the TS available.
Again we are basically doing this at layer 2, even though the client will eventually get an IP and use said IP to TFTP download said image...

EDIT:  to speculate on your question a bit: so if there are multiple DPs in the same subnet, or there is possibly IPHelper in the picture in some way ... the DP that answers is basically random unless a response delay is set (can be done on the DP in
in the MMC).

  • Setup bootdisk for systems that do not boot from cd

    I have a compaq lte 5400 that will not boot off the cd on the docking unit, nor the notebook even though it can be set in Bio. Will a boot disk come with the new dest top? Or can it be down loaded? It has the latest Bio update.

    It sounds like you are asking for a bootable floppy. JDS 2.0 also comes in the form of CDs or downloadable CD images. If you are able to install JDS on an alternate system, there is a utility for creating bootable floppy images.

  • Generating a report for clients that are not registered

    Hi - Hopefully someone can assist. We are looking to generate a report in SCCM 2012 that will tell us if a client is properly registered, and most recent scan.
    I can't seem to find a generic report for this task, so does anyone know if one exists - or how to create a custom one?
    Thanks!

    what means "properly registered" in your eyes?  To me, if it was able to communicate at all--heartbeat; that means it had to have registered.  But maybe you have a different criterion.
    So I think what you want is simply something like...
    select s.Netbios_Name0, max(disc.AgentTime) as LastHeartbeat
    from v_r_system s
    left join v_agentDiscoveries disc on s.resourceid=disc.resourceid
    and disc.AgentName = 'Heartbeat Discovery'
    Group by s.Netbios_Name0
    order by LastHeartbeat desc
    where the most recent heartbeat at the top; and boxes with no heartbeat reported will be null at the bottom.  If you don't want to even "see" the boxes that have never reported a heartbeat successfully, then don't left join, use just Join
    You could also use v_r_system_valid, instead of v_r_system.  As you can tell by the name, _valid means that CM itself has determined those are valid clients; so that might be what you think of as "properly registered".
    It all boils down to what means "properly registered" to you, and what you mean by "recent scan".  is a recent scan a heartbeat?  a software update scan?  hardware inventory reported?  and what means "recent".  the sample above is
    reporting on anything and everything regardless of date. 
    As for default reports, you're saying that the default reports in "Client Status" don't fit your criteria? 
    Standardize. Simplify. Automate.

    NO CRASH REPORT

    The console log may be more useful. You can examine it with the Console application in the Utilities folder. Those crashreporter logs are more useful to Apple's engineers than to most of us users.
    Have you tried these basic troubleshooting procedures:
    1. Repair the hard drive and permissions.
    2. Create a new user account and log into the account. Does the problem cease?
    3. Boot into safe mode. Does the problem cease?
    4. Download a utility such as TinkerTool System and use it to clear all user, system, and font caches, old log files, and run maintenance scripts.
    5. Completely uninstall the software (get rid of everything associated with it) then reinstall it.
    Repairing the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger and Leopard.) After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer. Now restart normally.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior (4.0 for Tiger, and 4.1 for Leopard) and/or TechTool Pro (4.6.1 for Leopard) to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    Kappy's Personal Suggestions for OS X Maintenance
    For disk repairs use Disk Utility. For situations DU cannot handle the best third-party utilities are: Disk Warrior; DW only fixes problems with the disk directory, but most disk problems are caused by directory corruption; Disk Warrior 4.x is now Intel Mac compatible. TechTool Pro provides additional repair options including file repair and recovery, system diagnostics, and disk defragmentation. TechTool Pro 4.5.1 or higher are Intel Mac compatible; Drive Genius is similar to TechTool Pro in terms of the various repair services provided. Versions 1.5.1 or later are Intel Mac compatible.
    OS X performs certain maintenance functions that are scheduled to occur on a daily, weekly, or monthly period. The maintenance scripts run in the early AM only if the computer is turned on 24/7 (no sleep.) If this isn't the case, then an excellent solution is to download and install a shareware utility such as Macaroni, JAW PseudoAnacron, or Anacron that will automate the maintenance activity regardless of whether the computer is turned off or asleep. Dependence upon third-party utilities to run the periodic maintenance scripts had been significantly reduced in Tiger and Leopard.
    OS X automatically defrags files less than 20 MBs in size, so unless you have a disk full of very large files there's little need for defragmenting the hard drive. As for virus protection there are few if any such animals affecting OS X. You can protect the computer easily using the freeware Open Source virus protection software ClamXAV. Personally I would avoid most commercial anti-virus software because of their potential for causing problems.
    I would also recommend downloading the shareware utility TinkerTool System that you can use for periodic maintenance such as removing old logfiles and archives, clearing caches, etc.
    For emergency repairs install the freeware utility Applejack. If you cannot start up in OS X, you may be able to start in single-user mode from which you can run Applejack to do a whole set of repair and maintenance routines from the commandline. Note that AppleJack 1.5 is required for Leopard.
    When you install any new system software or updates be sure to repair the hard drive and permissions beforehand. I also recommend booting into safe mode before doing system software updates.
    Get an external Firewire drive at least equal in size to the internal hard drive and make (and maintain) a bootable clone/backup. You can make a bootable clone using the Restore option of Disk Utility. You can also make and maintain clones with good backup software. My personal recommendations are (order is not significant):
    1. Retrospect Desktop (Commercial - not yet universal binary)
    2. Synchronize! Pro X (Commercial)
    3. Synk (Backup, Standard, or Pro)
    4. Deja Vu (Shareware)
    5. Carbon Copy Cloner (Donationware)
    6. SuperDuper! (Commercial)
    7. Intego Personal Backup (Commercial)
    8. Data Backup (Commercial)
    9. SilverKeeper 2.0 (Freeware)
    10. MimMac (Commercial)
    11. CloneTool Hatchery (Shareware)
    12. Clone X (Commercial)
    The following utilities can also be used for backup, but cannot create bootable clones:
    1. Backup (requires a .Mac account with Apple both to get the software and to use it.)
    2. Toast
    3. Impression
    4. arRSync
    Apple's Backup is a full backup tool capable of also backing up across multiple media such as CD/DVD. However, it cannot create bootable backups. It is primarily an "archiving" utility as are the other two.
    Impression and Toast are disk image based backups, only. Particularly useful if you need to backup to CD/DVD across multiple media.

    Uninstalling Software: The Basics
    Most OS X applications are completely self-contained "packages" that can be uninstalled by simply dragging the application to the Trash. Applications may create preference files that are stored in the /Home/Library/Preferences/ folder. Although they do nothing once you delete the associated application, they do take up some disk space. If you want you can look for them in the above location and delete them, too.
    Some applications may install an uninstaller program that can be used to remove the application. In some cases the uninstaller may be part of the application's installer, and is invoked by clicking on a Customize button that will appear during the install process.
    Some applications may install components in the /Home/Library/Applications Support/ folder. You can also check there to see if the application has created a folder. You can also delete the folder that's in the Applications Support folder. Again, they don't do anything but take up disk space once the application is trashed.
    Some applications may install a startupitem or a Log In item. Startupitems are usually installed in the /Library/StartupItems/ folder and less often in the /Home/Library/StartupItems/ folder. Log In Items are set in the Accounts preferences. Open System Preferences, click on the Accounts icon, then click on the LogIn Items tab. Locate the item in the list for the application you want to remove and click on the "-" button to delete it from the list.
    If an application installs any other files the best way to track them down is to do a Finder search using the application name or the developer name as the search term. Unfortunately Spotlight will not look in certain folders by default. You can modify Spotlight's behavior or use a third-party search utility, Easy Find, instead. Download Easy Find at VersionTracker or MacUpdate.
    There are also several shareware utilities that can uninstall applications:
    AppZapper
    CleanApp
    Yank
    SuperPop
    Uninstaller
    Spring Cleaning
    Look for them at VersionTracker or MacUpdate.
    For more information visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on removing software.

  • Creating new OSD task sequence causes PXE boot to fail

    I'm running SCCM 2012 on Server 2008 R2. Currently we have a standard task sequence we use for all of our Windows 7 deployments that is working fine. We use PXE boot to load up WinPE to select the task sequence to load and all is good.
    I've made a new task sequence to deploy custom configuration settings to a group of computers. I've duplicated much of the original task sequence, using the same boot media. After i deploy the new TS to the All Unknown Computers collection, PXE boot does
    not work anymore.
    It downloads WDSNBP, starts by DHCP referral, contacts the server. After that I just get a Pending Request ID: number says contacting server then fails. If i go back to my new TS and delete the deployment, all is good again.
    Can i create a new task sequence using an existing reference image? Has anyone seen this type of issue before? I see similar issues online, but it seems to be for people that cannot PXE boot at all. My problem is just that the new task sequence seems to
    kill PXE boot when it's deployed.

    This is from the log file, looks like it can't find the boot image. I'm using the same boot image for both of the task sequences though.

  • Problems with PXE boot for clients

    Hi,
    I have an environment where I have clients on av VLAN connected to a Cisco 2960X (WS-C2960X-48LPD-L ) with layer 3 configuration. The clients do a PXE boot to get configuration. The thing is that this does not work on all switches. The switches have the exact same configuration, the only thing that differs is Hardware Board Revision Number. (That I can find..) The ones that works has 0x05 and the ones that doesn´t work has 0x12. The PXE server is connected on a different VLAN in the same switch.
    I have configured spanning-tree portfast on the interfaces. I have ip-helper on the VLAN. The PXE server is also the DHCP server.
    Any suggestions?
    Regards,
    Carina

    It seems NIC teaming was configured really incorrectly in this case. Different switches require different configuration with specific settings on the Windows Server side. Sometimes incorrect configurations work when network traffic is low but start behaving
    funny when it increases. The reason behind this is Windows hosts sending back answers to its peers via different physical links, and the switch doesn't expect it and drops "incorrect" frames.
    You can find detailed description of different teaming modes here:
    http://www.aidanfinn.com/?p=14004
    If you use LACP, be sure to set up port channel on Cisco switches or LACP trunk on HP switches. Otherwise you might want to use the Switch Independent mode.

  • Yoga 13 - Compatible USB to ethernet devices for PXE booting

    Hi there, 
    I've recently been looking for a means to pxe boot the lenovo yoga 13 to enable me to then image it. After reading that pxe booting is possible I went out and bought a StarTech usb to ethernet adaptor (USB21000S2) but have had no luck so far.. In other postsI've read that pxe booting is only supported if using the official lenovo usb to ethernet adaptor. We're using FOG as our imaging solution (if thats of any use)
    Please can someone confirm if only the official adaptor is supported.
    Regards
    Simon

    Were you able to find any?  I am also very interested in finding one.  I just ordered one of these the lenovo 0A36322 to see if it will work, but it is only 100mb and not sure if it will work or not.

  • SCCM 2012 R2 Won't PXE Boot

    I'm trying to get PXE booting to work on our SCCM 2012 R2 server and am getting the dreaded "PXE-E53: No Boot file Name Received."  DHCP server is in same subnet on a different machine, so supposedly no DHCP options or ip helpers are necessary.  I'm
    testing using a client VM with the legacy adapter for the NIC, and that machine PXE boots fine from our SCCM 2007 server.
    When I test, I've been shutting down the SCCM 2007 server so that the 2012 machine is the only PXE server on our network. 
    In a nutshell, I'm trying to deploy Windows 8.1 using
    this as a guide. The x86 and x64 boot images are enabled for PXE distribution and I've deployed the task sequence for the 8.1 OS image to all unknown computers.  The DP  shows content for the OS image and the boot images.  PXE on the DP is enabled
    and checkmarked to listen for PXE requests on all interfaces and for unknown computer support. 
    For troubleshooting I've tried unchecking all the PXE settinging in the DP, which removes WDS and then putting it back, as well as removing the MP role and putting it back (see attached snippet of SMSPXE.LOG).
    I feel like I'm missing something basic here.  Can anyone help?
    Thanks!

    Thanks, Jason.  Yes, the MAC addrss is the client I'm trying to PXE boot.
    I've reviewed the health in the monitoring section.  No issues in System Status, and in Content Status there is only one error regarding the DP trying to contact an old SCCM 2007 distribution point at a branch office.  This
    appears to be a leftover from the migration process from SCCM 2007.  This old distribution point is no longer in use and I can't seem to find any references to it on my SCCM 2012 R2 installation.  Not sure if this is significant or not. 
    I've attached a snippet of the error: 

  • Installing Windows 7, 8 and 8.1 using ISOs, Answer Files and Driver files over PXE boot

    I have a validation lab that uses Windows 7, 8 and 8.1 on several completely different systems. I am looking for an easy way for the techs to PXE boot from a 2012 Server, select the OS to install and have the OS installed with drivers so when they come back
    to the system it has the OS installed with no Bangs in Device Manager.
    I have done this in the past (7-8 years ago) and it was fairly easy. Now from what I read it appears I have to create "Image" files for each system type? I hope I am misreading this because that method is counter-productive to create 10 different
    images for 10 different systems.
    I thought I used WDS and AIK on a 2K3 Server but I don't remember.
    Is there a method/tool to install the operating systems as I described above using original OS ISOs, unattended answer files and driver files? WDS or SCCM? AM I misreading how it works?

    Consider using newer Windows ADK

  • PXE Boot - Bootfile Name (Location)?

    Good Morning:
    I am in the midst of trying to capture and deploy an Image with SCCM 2012 R2 and hitting some snags and trying my best to work through them.  After some struggles I was able to capture the image with some help and lots of googling.  I now am attempting
    to boot a VM (for testing purposes) via PXE boot.  I initially was only getting PXE-E53: No boot filename received - which is a well googled term.  I had to manually define options 66 and 67 on my DHCP scope for SOME reason (they are in the same
    subnet, so not sure why that mattered).  Now getting some feedback at least.
    I selected option 66 on my DHCP server as the IP of my PXE enabled DP/SCCM server and option 67 with Boot\x64\wdsnbp.com     - My question is that second destination/path look right.  I get (attached error).  Most everything
    I read when I enabled PXE on my DP that it will create a remoteinstall folder, mine is named, REMINST and is fully populated.  I have attempted to remedy every which way.  My SMSPXE log has no errors after I manually defined the DHCP options. 
    Can anyone let me know what I might be missing?  Both boot images and the operating system images are distributed successfully. 
    If anyone could shed light I would greatly appreciate it, Im at a loss for options after exhaustive googling.

  • Trying to do pxe-boot and kickstart install on sunfire x4150 using NET MGT

    I am trying to do pxe-boot and kickstart install on sunfire x4150 using NET MGT port. Is this doable? The eth0 port works fine, but the NET MGT port does not seems working. It gets the IP, gateway, mask and other info, but would not start the install. I heard that the NET MGT port is not capable of doing pxe-boot, please let me know if this is true.
    Your help is appreciated.
    Sheng

    The NET MGT port is for the ILOM. That interface is not visible to the Host OS so no it cannot be used for host communication including PXE booting...

  • Decrypt errors occurred for client

    I am getting error messages for clients:
    11 Mon Jun 14 09:11:56 2010 Decrypt errors occurred for client 00:13:ce:54:57:3c using WPA key on 802.11b/g interface of AP 00:16:9c:91:97:c0
    12 Mon Jun 14 09:11:56 2010 Decrypt errors occurred for client 00:16:6f:91:d8:60 using WPA2 key on 802.11b/g interface of AP 00:16:9c:91:97:c0
    These are only occuring for clients that are disconnecting....
    They can reconnect after a WLC reboot....
    We have swapped APs.....
    I have seen this error in other forums but it says not to worry about it. There has to be a connection between this and clients getting disconnected. We have anywhere between 10-50 clients on the system at any one time.
    Is this a client issue (nic firmware, version) or is this an error in  the controller??
    AIR-WLC2106-K9
    IOS ver: 6.0.196.0
    Thanks

    This means that the client is using a different key than the one he agreed on using with the AP. There were bugs about this long time ago but nothing recent.
    I've seen this happening a lot with old/not updated clients. It rarely happens on intel adapters with latest drivers for example.
    So I'd suggest checking the client pattern (are the clients facing this all having old wireless drivers ?).
    It can also happen if you offer funny encryption combinations that client doesn't like (wpa1+aes, wpa2+tkip). Try to only enable wpa2/aes and see if it helps.

  • Windows Deployment Services Unable to PXE boot clients PXE-E53: No Boot Filename Received

    Hi
    I'm trying to configure WDS/MDT to deploy Windows 8.1. I've captured an image and I'm ready to deploy the image to a workstation, as per the above title when I attempt to PXE boot a test workstation it just times out with the following error message PXE-E52:No
    Boot Filename Recieved. I've tried a few tweaks to get it working however no such luck.
    The setup is as follows it's a virtual Windows 2012 R2 machine, just a fresh member server with microsoft deployment toolkit installed and WDS role installed with the nesscary framework features installed.
    I've tried tweaking the properties of most of the settings within the server settings in WDS with no such luck.
    I'm a novice at WDS but from what I've read I shouldn't need configure that much in the first place to get it working.
    I'm willing to bet it will be something I've overlooked so I need a 2nd opinon, could anyone provide any troubleshooting tips. If you require anymore information please let me know.
    Cheers   

    Hi Joel,
    This error may caused by the WDS server is not pushing the images because PXE Clients are not able to download or communicate with the TFTP server.
    The image can’t be download generally caused by the the Vlan is not enabled IP helper/DHCP relay agent configured on it, all DHCP broadcasts on UDP port 67 by client computers
    should be forwarded directly to both the DHCP server and the Windows Deployment Services PXE server.
