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.

PXE boot issues with Windows Deployment Services

I am trying to move from FOG to WDS after running in to serious UEFI issues with FOG.Right now I'm stuck with machines PXE booting to WDS server.I keep getting the message ProxyDHCP service didn't reply to request on port 4011.WDS and DHCP are on different servers. There are plenty of IP addresses available, and they are on the same subnet. I did originally configure DHCP option 60, but deleted that option after troubleshooting. I have configured Windows Firewall to allow inbound and outbound connections on UDP ports 67-69 and 4011 on both DHCP server and WDS server. I have also tried just using IP address in DHCP option 66. As for option 67, I don't even know the right bootfile name to use at this point, figured I'd tackle that if I ever get past this error message.I have tried restarting the WDS service several times, as well as the...

PXE boot issue with DHCP and SCCM server on different subnets

I'm working with a client on the operating system deployment module of SCCM.
Their network configuration currently has a single large subnet for client
computers with a DHCP server on the same subnet. The SCCM subnet is
configured on a seperate subnet with no DHCP server on the subnet. We want to
configure client computers to be able to boot using the PXE client to deploy
OS images to the machines but can not get PXE-boot to work correctly.
Also, the client does not want to make changes to their network
infrastructure routers or switches to remedy this problem. Are there settings
on the DHCP or SCCM servers we can implement to make this work? If so, what
needs to be installed or configured on each server. We currently already have
WDS installed on the SCCM server and the SCCM server is configured as a PXE
Service Point within SCCM. Both WDS and the PXE Service Point seem to be working fine.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Gary

I am Brazilian,
sorry for wrong english
My DHCP is on linux,
in my own structure VLANS
The system center is on the network
10.0.4.0/24
The machines on the network 10.0.5.0/24
The problem is that the machines that
are not on the same network system center
can not boot
I tried configuring / etc/dhcp3/dhcpd.conf
follows
option vendor-class-identifier "PXEClient";
option bootfile-name "\
\ SMSBOOT \ \ x86 \
\ wdsnbp.com";
option tftp-server-name
"10.0.4.101"; ---->

But it did not work, anyone know
how to configure?

How to remove pxe boot settings. cisco 1841

A while ago I set up a pxe server and somehow eventually configured our Cisco router which ran our dhcp server as well. We've removed the pxe boot server and now I'd like to remove those entries. Essentially the two lines I believe I need to remove are here under my running-config:
   bootfile pxelinux.0
   next-server 10.100.100.230
found here:

I've tried using the commands:

any ideas on how to get rid of these 2 lines? Thanks

First you have to enter in dhcp-config mode:
main-rt(config)# ip dhcp pool dhcp
main-rt(dhcp-config)# no bootfile pxelinux.0
main-rt(dhcp-config)# no next-server 10.100.100.230

PXE Boot and Task Sequence slowness

I have been assured that our subnet 10.10.156.x is all 100MB. Yet when I PXE up and run our CM2012 task sequence it takes over 1 hour
just to resolve the task sequence. Forget trying to actually do the OSD since that would take about 6 hours.
Before I go back to networking I wanted to explain what I did to this forum to make sure I did things right.
Our CM2012 server is also our one and only MP. It is also a DP for most of our small company. Our CM2012 server is on subnet 10.10.141.x. Yes, it has a static IP address.
Our 10.10.156.x subnet is in the same phsycal building as the 10.10.141.x subnet. .141 is for servers and .156 is for workstations.
We have a server that holds all of our DHCP scopes. On this DHCP server I found the 10.10.156.x scope. I added the following:
066 Boot Server Host Name: 10.10.141.54 (which is our CM2012 server)
067 Bootfile name: \smsboot\x64\wdsnbp.com
When I go to any workstations on the 10.10.156.x subnet I PXE boot up, it does see 10.10.141.54 and it launches the CM2012 OSD task wizard. But as I said it is slower than glue and un-useable at this time.
Did I setup this up right or do I need to do something else? Or is our networking team full of it?
mqh7

Ok, I did that. I saw no errors and in fact it all looked fine. It just took a long time. so I talked to our top network tech. He said the IP address means nothing. It is all about what the wall Ports are connected too in the
server/network room. So this does appear to be an internal networking problem we need to solve.
last question: If you have 100MB ports is that considered slow for a CM2012 OSD? our .WIM and all installed applications are close to 5GB of data. So is 100MB good or should it all be Gigibit?

PXE boot fails and reboots after loading PE

I have run into what I think is a unique issue and need some help determining the cause.
We are in the process of replacing and aging DP/PXE point (2003 R2 SP2) with a new server (2008 STD R2 SP1). What makes my pxe issue unique is that pxe works without issue on the existing 2003 DP/PXE server. But on the new 2008 server I run into
the following issue.
Environment: Config Manager 2007 R2, a single primary, multiple DP's and PXE points.
Issue: When I attempt to PXE boot a system, I am able to load PE, but shortly after the custom background screen is loaded, the system reboots. I've searched the internet quite a bit and found lots of potential causes including, bad/missing drivers,
certificate issues, rights issues, etc. None of these seem to be the cause.
My troubleshooting has determined that the client computers are unable to download the variables.dat file. I just don't know why.
We're using the same boot images on both servers.
I've tried using multiple computer models and VM's.
I've opened a command prompt as soon as our background image loads and have verified that the system is pulling a valid IP address. I am able to map a drive to the PXE server's REMINST share using our sccm net access account and manually copy the .var
file using xcopy to the appropriate directory on the local virtual drive. I've also attempted to manually run smstftp.exe by mimicking the command line from the smsts log file. I'll admit that I'm not sure I have the correct syntax for smstftp.
I've tried several variations and all but one result in a short pause and no file copied/created in the X:\sms\data folder. The one that does produce a result says that the file cannot be found. I checked for typos and made sure I used the name
of the newly created .var file.
I've also tried disabling anti-virus on the server, shutting off the windows firewall on the server, granting everyone read rights to the REMINST share.
Below is the smstslog file I've been using as a reference. Per corporate security policy, I have X'd out the IP address of the PXE server. The log file for the successful pxe boot from the 2003 server shows an exit code of 0 for smstftp.exe, a note
about successful download of the pxe var file and then it continues through the rest of the boot process.

This has been an extremely frustrating issue and any assistance would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks for your quick response Jason! I didn't expect someone to reply so quickly or I would have checked back sooner.
I had found the two 'older' posts already, but had not seen the 'newer' one. Unfortunately that did not give me any new ideas. But your comment on checking for TFTP availability did. Here are things I have tried since my original
post...
I re-ran most of my tests in case I missed something. I only found one change. Even though I double-checked, I must have made a typo when I manually ran the smstftp.exe command, because when I ran it again I received a timeout message instead
of file not found.
I had a minor 'thinking outside of the box moment' and decided to PXE boot the new 2008 R2 server itself. This was successful and I interpreted the success as meaning that the hardware is ok. Thinking there may be a compatibility issue with
the hardware and the OS, I tried a few different NIC drivers, settings, registry keys, and even a completely different NIC. No luck on any of these.
I decided to build another Server on a VM tovalidate my build process and configuration. And of course clients in multiple locations were able to PXE boot off this VM. Too bad I can't use this in production.
After reading your response Jason, I began to focus on network. I moved the server to a few different locations so it was utilizing different switches. No luck. I noticed in the event viewer for WDS that the server was logging the
beginning of the boot.var file via TFTP. This of course was not very surprising. What was surprising is that the very next entry (informational) noted that the client 'COMPLETED' the download of the boot.var file via TFTP. I know that completed
does not mean successful, but it usually implies or is interpreted as successful. It should have logged a warning or error, or nothing at all because although the process completed, it was not successful. I re-verified that the file was not downloaded
to the client and the client log file still shows the same error noted in the logfile from my original post.
Finally, I installed sniffing software on the server and ran some captures while attempting to PXE boot. Even though I am not much of a network guy, I quickly discovered two things. First, I found the section where the client attempts to download
the boot.var file. Unfortunately I don't think the local security team will allow me to post the capture, so I'll do my best to describe what I found. It starts with a single entry where the client calls for the file via TFTP protocol. This
is followed by a series of alternating entries (all TFTP) where it looks like the server attempts to send a portion of the file, and the client sends an acknowledgement. The sending entries all have checksum errors. The checksum received on
all packets is 0x0000 and of course should be something else. There is also a shorter section below this with alternating entries where the server attempts to send ICMP packets and the client responds with TFTP acknowledgements.
The ICMP entries are all marked as Destination unreachable (Port Unreachable).
The second thing I noticed from the network capture is the a few 'Spanning Tree Protocol' entries. I my search for a solution, I remember reading several posts saying that Spanning Tree can cause this issue. When I asked, I was assured that
Spanning Tree was disabled in this environment. It made sense too, because the 2003 PXE server was functioning properly, and Spanning Tree should affect both 2003 and 2008 servers, right?
Either way I will bring my findings to the network team and see what they have to say.
Any additional thoughts or ideas???

When you installed iTunes on your work computer, then connected your iPad to that computer, it wiped what was on the iPad, then put the iTunes library (nothing) from the work computer onto the iPad. You can try copying the iTunes folder from your home computer over to your work computer, but since the apps were bought with a different account, they may not load or update properly.

Formatting the encrypted hard drive or intalling OS again with PXE boot can change TPM owner password file?

Hello,
1) I realized that when MBAM bitlocker encryption start both Recovery key and TPM owner password file are send to MBAM server. If we change the computername of the notebook, we can find out Recovery key from MBAM server with the KeyID as we can read it from
computer screen, but we can not find out TPM owner password file with the existing new computername information from MBAM server, so we have to know old names of all computers but it is impossible. So we have to do decryption and clearing TPM than we
can again encrypted it with its new name. is it right?
2) We will going to deploy mbam encryption to our notebooks. But sometimes when a person quit the job his notebook can given to another person or new employee and based to our procedure when a notebook will given to another user it should installed
OS again with PXE boot. I would to know will it be enough to installing with this method again with a diffrent computer name or should I firstly clear its TPM than install OS with PXE to keep TPM owner password file missing as item 1?
I hope i can explain what i mean :)
Regards,
SibelM

I would suggest you to first decrypt the laptop and then follow the process:-
- Clear the TPM
- Encrypt the type.
- Check for the encryption behavior.
Cause I have found on some model that if the OS drive is encrypted, PXE boot fail on that machine even though I also did a direct PXE on an encrypted machine with clearing the TPM.
TPM ownership password is a hash file that gets generated with a set of algorithm. SO each time when you PXE boot, by clearing the TPM, the TPM hash password for the TPM will change. This has been done for security measures.

Pxe boot sun x4170-m2 LSI raid 5 disks issues 2.10_u9 rel

Hi Gurus,
I am trying to image sun fire x4170-m2 series servers with Latest solaris 10.u9 patch set using Raid-5 disks setup with one hot-spare. Pxe boot works but i minboot not able to find raid-5 disks which is about 1.2 TB disks size. Where as if i used DVD to boot the servers it works properly. What i am missing.

The Open Procedure for service "WDSTFTP" in DLL "C:\Windows\system32\wdstftp.dll" failed. WDS not PXE booting!

This morning came in to find clients were not getting there bootfiles through PXE. I checked the logs to find the following events related to WDS.
The Open Procedure for service "WDSTFTP" in DLL "C:\Windows\system32\wdstftp.dll" failed
The Open Procedure for service "WDSServer" in DLL "C:\Windows\system32\wdssrv.dll" failed
The Open Procedure for service "WDSMC" in DLL "C:\Windows\system32\wdsmc.dll" failed
Has anyone seen this or have a link to a resolution?

Hotfix loaded but didn't help.
Found a few articles referring to rebuilding the perf counter library. I ran "lodctr /R" failed first time then worked the second time. I believe the errors:
The Open Procedure for service "WDSTFTP" in DLL "C:\Windows\system32\wdstftp.dll" failed
The Open Procedure for service "WDSServer" in DLL "C:\Windows\system32\wdssrv.dll" failed
The Open Procedure for service "WDSMC" in DLL "C:\Windows\system32\wdsmc.dll" failed
Are gone but PXE boot still fails.
Do you think I might have to uninstall WDS and reinstall? "Using SCCM console to just remove PXE"

Looing for PXE-Boot option on T430s

Hello
I am in the process of testing a Thinkpad T430s to possibly do a mass purchase for our company. We use SCCM
to manage imaging, patching / updates etc. I am trying to PXE boot but but I am getting an error which may have to do with
SCCM but as an extra measure I am trying to locate PXE Boot option in the BIOS but can't seem to find anything.
ANy suggestions would be appreciated

do you see Wake On Lan and/or Ethernet LAN Option ROM on the Network menu under the Config tab in your BIOS.
apologies if you don't. all i've got to check is my X220 in front of me, at the moment.
regards.

PXE boot not working on some models

We have a very strange situation that I was hoping someone could shed some light on.
setup:
ZDM 7 IR4HP1
multiple VLANS
situation:
PXE boot does not work on any model workstation other than dell 760 if connected to the network in any valn other than VLAN1 where the server resides.
dell 760 can be PXe booted in any vlan
any other model machine can only be PXE booted in VLAN 1 which is where the PXE server is.
PXE debug log shows nothing recorded at all from machines other than the 760's
non-760 desktops will recieve the Proxy address of the PXE server, etc, but for some reason they show multiple gateways and the correct gateway is always last. the extra gateway numbers are coming from switches.
I have no clue as to why dell 760's will PXE boot perfectly every time and in any VLAN (they only get one gateway and it's the correct one) but any other type of machine will fail every time if they are not in VLAN 1
sometimes the non-760's will get PXE error E78 No boot file name ...
other times no PXE error but an error "could not contact the boot server"
HELP!

I have just encountered this issue myself (ZCM10.2.1). I have no idea where the issue is coming from, within windows, linux or osx its perfect... Today I blew away my entire ZCM install (working on migrating) but still have the same issue!!! Were using HP Procurve switches using OSPF for routing, I just restarted our core cisco router but can't verify if it helped, I'll let you know.

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:

PXE boot UEFI Thinkpad 10 not working

struggling with this problem for some time now..
saw some related threads but not really providing an answer
have one customer who bought a bunch of Thinkpad 10 machines from lenovo and the purpose is to install them with a 8.1 SOE, untill now the only thing that works is to use a standalone usb medium
our setup is SCCM 2012 R2 on top of Server 2008R2 using infoblox instead...
the thinkpad 10 has the latest ATOM cpu and is definitely a 64 bit UEFI machine
we also noticed that some switches have problems to (try and ) boot the UEFI machines, dont know why yet
the issue is that the only thing we see during a UEFI only PXE boot is that the NBP file gets succesfully downloaded (even twice) and then just switches back to the next bootoption.
i've checked:
-PXE boot another UEFI device: same symptom
-PXE boot legacy devices: ok
-changed the bootfile in option 67 to the efi file: same symptom
-all files are in the smsboot\x64 folder
lenovo support now wants me to do this: include a winPE x64 image that supports UEFI and then run the following command on the server:
"WDSUTIL /New-MulticastTransmission /FriendlyName:"WDS Boot Transmission" /Image:"Microsoft Windows PE (x64) Win8" /ImageType:Boot /Architecture:x64
/TransmissionType:AutoCast"
but I don't see what UEFI/pxe has to do with multicasting and why should I change something on wds if UEFI boot under similar circumstances works in other implementations?
any more useful ideas folks?

if you are using dhcp options, remove them, instead configure iphelpers to point to the server hosting your pxe enabled DP (should be running server 2008r2 or later).

Niall,
this was the solution in our case.
the problem was to convince the network guys to try this for us...
since we are using IP helpers it works to do the PXE boot for UEFI
