Unattended Kickstart
Is it possible to run the kickstart command without user interaction, either in the form of a .sh script, an applescript, or a package? I'm trying to avoid touching the machines after they have been imaged. Thanks for the help guys.

I'm getting this error as well. The error seems to be related to --initrd-inject.
The following produces an error
virt-install --connect=qemu:///system \
--location=ftp://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/dists/stable/main/installer-amd64 \
--initrd-inject=/home/myname/tmp/preseed/preseed.cfg \
--extra-args="auto" \
--name debian_stable_preseed --ram=512 \
--disk=pool=default,size=5,format=qcow2,bus=virtio
However the following starts installing.
virt-install --connect=qemu:///system \
--location=ftp://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/dists/stable/main/installer-amd64 \
--extra-args="auto" \
--name debian_stable_preseed --ram=512 \
--disk=pool=default,size=5,format=qcow2,bus=virtio
I might dig into this some more later.

All the info i can see relates to Jumpstart installs using an additional server w/ dhcp/tftp.
Is there anyway to start an install with the dvd and choose packages etc with a config file on a floppy or http server like RHEL kickstart boot parameter?
Thanks!Yes you can.
Once you started the installation, a *.msi file will be stored in you temp directory (c:/documents and settings/user/local settings/temp)
+don't close the installer before you copied the msi file to another place+
msi files can be automated.
Just search for unattended msi installer on any search engine or take a look at http://unattended.msfn.org -

Using service account then i will get the soluction or what?
pls help me out it is urgent based.

Thanks!Hi Ychinnari,
I have tested on my local environment and can reproduce the issue, as
Vaishu00547 mentioned that the issue can be caused by the Execution Account you have configured in the Reporting Services Configuration Manager is not correct, Please update the Username and Password and restart the reporting services.
Please also find more details information about when to use the execution account, if possible,please also not specify this account:
This account is used under special circumstances when other sources of credentials are not available:
When the report server connects to a data source that does not require credentials. Examples of data sources that might not require credentials include XML documents and some client-side database applications.
When the report server connects to another server to retrieve external image files or other resources that are referenced in a report.
Execution Account (SSRS Native Mode)
If you still have any problem, please feel free to ask.

Sysprep unattend file not applying when image is captured with wds (no errors)
So I've been around the block a bit using sysprep and wds. Recently I've created a reference image with a virtualbox environment using windows 7 x64. I was succesfully able to create a reference image, sysprep it and capture it to the wds server. My
plan there after was to create driver specific images for each model computer we use here after not having much success using the driver store (another story)
Any how So I take my reference image and deploy it to a new computer... In this case an HP Probook 5310m. Install any missing drivers and Sysprep it with the following command. sysprep /generalize /oobe /unattend:unattend.xml /shutdown
Below is the sysprep file I have been using

The machine succesfully syspreps and shuts down. I restart the computer pxe boot and capture the image succesfully.
Now here comes my problem...
Upon deploying the above driver specific image.. my sysprep file is not applied. Nothing from the OOBE wizard answers to the pc logo , or first logon commands are applied ... nothing.. I have gotten no errors during this whole process. I have
started to try to read the logs within the panther folder but havent gotten far.
What is weird to me is that I have tried recreating this image... deploy the reference image... add drivers ... sysprep ...shutdown. And if I boot normally (without capturing the image) the computer shows all of the sysprep changes.. Only when
i capture the image does it not apply the changes....
I'm stumped...
Any ides?Confirm this scenario: You installed Windows, then ran sysprep and used the /unattend switch. Then you captured the image.
In this scenario there are 2 deployment methods.
1. If you deploy the image with DISM, the answer file generated by sysprep is detected on first boot and settings are applied. It is the same function as if you ran sysprep and chose to restart.
2. If you deploy the image using Setup.exe, it does not use the answer file specified by sysprep prior to capturing. I have not looked into *why* this happens, but I suspect that after the image is applied, it replaces the unattend.xml with the generic one.
If you are using Setup.exe, you need to use its /unattend switch and point to the answer file location. This location cannot be inside of the image. If you are not using setup.exe in a manual method (using WDS) you will need to apply the answer file to the
install image in the WDS snap-in. -
Hi All,
I have a problem that I have been working on for the past week and hoping someone can provide the missing link for me.
Background
We currently have a 2008 "VDI" environment with both personal and pooled Windows 7 desktops deployed to thin clients. We have just set up our first 2012 Hyper-V server and plan to deploy pooled and personal VDIs under 2012. I have been working
on the process and successfully created both pooled and personal Windows 7 desktops using the Remote Desktop Services and creating the collections.
I created the golden image and sysprep'd it (/Generalize /OOBE /Shutdown). During the creation of the Pool collection I manually inputted the Virtual settings (i.e. the OU, etc). I notice there is an option to supply an unattend.xml file with the answers.
We are deploying the pool into a computer lab in the school for the students to use. I want the pool to revert to the pristine state after the student logs off.
Problem
When the user logs into the pooled desktop I notice that the activation for the Windows license has not been run. I am trying to use the unattend file to activate the license before the first log-in. Using the Windows System Image Maker I've install our
volume license key, but it does not activate. The only option I have to activate it is to run a synchronous command during first login. This can only be inserted in the OOBE phase. When the user logs in the license activates, but when they log out,
the machine reverts to the pristine state.
I confess I'm newbie to unattend installs but I've been reading the docs on line trying to figure out how to change this behavior. I'm also assuming this won't be a problem with the personal desktops pools.
Any help is greatly appreciated.Hi,
Please make sure to following guide like this link to deploy the virtual desktops
Windows 8 / Windows Server 2012: Pooled Virtual Desktop Infrastructure
http://blogs.technet.com/b/askperf/archive/2012/10/31/windows-8-windows-server-2012-pooled-virtual-desktop-infrastructure.aspx
Regarding to activation, see introduction in this link:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn645522.aspx
Which did you use? for KMS as an example, you have to activate the master\template VM with the Windows version specific KMS Key and make sure that your KMS Server is auto discoverable.
The snapshot on the automatically created pooled collection VM is taken before KMS activation is initiated from the guest OS. So the KMS activation would take place only after user logs on. once the rollback is enabled, the pooled VM will
rollback to clean state and may perform the windows activation again when any user logs on to the VM again.
And you mentioned that you're using WSIM and installed Volume License Key, (I suppose you mean that you've typed the key in the "Product Key Selection" in WSIM), but as I know, we should leave the product key blank if you are using KMS host
for activation.

T400 - Bluetooth Software - Unattended Install instructions/procedure required.
Hi all,
This is technically not a problem but an information request.
I need the info because it will save me making a more clunky solution and I know that it exists because the factory preload must have used SOME method to get this working automatically.
I know I have written a lot but its all relevant and I dont want someone from Lenovo to have to ask me three times for missing info so I have listed everything.
BASIC SCENARIO
ThinkPad T40 [6474-R1U]
Windows XP Corp w/ SP2 <NOT THE FACTORY PRELOAD OR A DERIVATIVE>
I have two T400 "prototypes" to work with in making the current corporate image work on this platform.
One has the test corporate image and one has the XP factory preload installed on it.
The SATA, sysprep, drivers, webcam-reboot-issue, etc have all been fixed and its gotten to a point where the Device Manager is clean as a whistle and no errors.
I am not new to this as our corporate image is my sole responsibility and it works perfectly on 7 different hardware platforms, 4 of which are laptops.
At the end of the re-image, the following software will be "silently" installed in the specified order ONLY if the system is detected to be a 6474-class Lenovo.
[1] ACPI Power Management SETUP.EXE -S -SMS N/A
[2] Hotkey Utility SETUP.EXE /S N/A
[3] Lenovo System Interface Driver SETUP.EXE /S N/A
[4] Keyboard Customizer Utility SETUP.EXE -S -SMS [1] & [2]
[5] Presentation Director SETUP.EXE -S -SMS [1] & [2] & [3]
[6] ThinkVantage Access Connections SETUP.EXE -S -SMS [1] & [2]
[7] Power Manager SETUP.EXE -S -SMS N/A
[8] Bluetooth Enhanced Data Rate Software N/A N/A
All drivers are from Lenovo, the second field is the silent install command line and the third is the dependency table.
BASIC PROBLEM
As you can see, I dont have a method to do the silent install of the Bluetooth software.
I have tried SETUP.EXE -S -SMS and SETUP.EXE /S in the main folder and the Win32 sub-folder of the driver folder but no dice.
It doesnt do anything and leaving it sitting there for a while and then rebooting doesnt show the Bluetooth software installed after the reboot so I know it isnt working.
The SETUP.EXE -S -SMS switch is common to all software that uses InstallShield for installation as opposed to Lenovo proprietary software which uses the /S switch and the Bluetooth sofware DOES use InstallShield but the silent switch doesnt work.
The link on the website for the Bluetooth driver software is the ONLY driver I encountered that didnt list a silent method of installing it and there is no SW1.XML file in the driver folder either. I am pretty sure that the SW1.XML file is the file that the factory preload uses to install software after the PCI device enumeration.
Doing it manually [Setup.exe,Next,Next,etc,Finish] works like a charm and doesnt even require a reboot as the drivers were automatically installed during the Mini-Setup portion after the sysprep/re-image.
The best option would be for someone from Lenovo to let me know the command I need to run to get the silent option to install the Bluetooth software.
A secondary option would be for Lenovo to help me with the following in terms of procedure or just giving me the CMD files mentioned below.
On the laptop that has the factory preload, the swtools folder contains the drivers installed on that model and it has the same Bluetooth driver as on the website in that it has no SW1.XML or unattended information.
I came across the following file in its root folder which has some interesting info: c:\swtools\modules.log
Almost at the beginning are these entries
? evaluating filters for 4gglw6a1 - thinkpad bluetooth software for helike
? - filter returned true
? filter expression result is true
? evaluating filters for 4glth2a1 - thinkpad ms bluetooth inf for helike - copy only - lc
? - filter returned true
? filter expression result is true
searching for blue, the following entries much later in the file reference the ones above....
Thu 12/11/2008 23:04:28.84 Starting c:\swwork\other\4gglw6a1.cmd
ThinkPad Bluetooth Software for Helike
Thu 12/11/2008 23:06:12.29 Finished c:\swwork\other\4gglw6a1.cmd
Thu 12/11/2008 23:16:21.34 Starting c:\swwork\network\4glth2a1.cmd
ThinkPad MS Bluetooth INF for Helike - Copy Only - LC
Thu 12/11/2008 23:16:21.46 Finished c:\swwork\network\4glth2a1.cmd
Obviously having these CMD files at hand would be nice but the folder swwork referenced there doesnt exist as it was probably deleted after the preload process was completed.
I have a Ghost image of the factory preload when its "fresh" on the hard drive and hasnt been booted up even once.
I made it right after I slapped the pre-load on but before I booted it the first time.
I can re-image that laptop with that image and pause it before the deletion of that folder if it would help in me seeing the file in DOS [Winternals Remote Recover] but I would still need to know when to stop it, etc.
Thanks in advance. :-)
Solved!
Go to Solution.So to be clear what command-line did you use for
[8] Bluetooth Enhanced Data Rate Software N/A N/A
And what setup file? How do you activate BT when you can't activate it with FN+F5 when you receive a new machine and you must deploy an image on it?
Is it this:
http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/MIGR-70443.html#bluetooth
v5.5.0.5800 from 29 jan 2009
I see that there is a Bluetooth Support File v1.00 from 2 june 2008 that is also needed or not? It's in the Vista categorie but when you open it, you can see in the readme file that there is also an explanation to install on xp

Data connection error to analysis services via unattended account after configure kerberos
Hi, I setup connection to SASS from dashboard designer using Unattended Account, and everything was fine. Then I started to configure connection with Kerberos using Per-user Identity authentication, and after long customization it started to work. But in
the same time Unattended Account authentication stopped working.
From dashboard designer I got error:
PerformancePoint Services was unable to connect to "dbserver\instance". Verify that the server name is correct and that the Unattended Service Account has permission to connect to the server.
Additional details have been logged for the administrator.
And in SharePoint server in application log:

Sorry for misunderstanding and thanks for the additional information.
As I searched, there are tips for your situation:
1. of the great new features of PerformancePoint Services is that you can now select different authentication options for each data source you create rather than having to decide on one authentication model to use for each web application.
2.If SharePoint is configured in standalone mode Per-user Identity authentication is only supported if the data source and the application server are located on the same machine. Kerberos constrained delegation is required to connect to a data source
located on a separate machine from the application server in a farm deployment.
3.Per-user Identity is only supported with Windows credentials, neither anonymous or forms login are supported.

Error in unattend file windows 8 and 8.1 sysprep
Hi,
I am using MDT 2013 and ADK 8.1. I am trying to deploy Windows 8 and Windows 8.1 base image. Once the PC has finished imaging and starts the first boot it come up with the following message:
"Windows could not parse or process the unattend answer file for pass [specialize]. The setting in the answer file cannot be applied. The error was detected while processing settings for component [Microsoft-Windows-Shell-Setup]."
I have not created any answer files, I think this is created automatically my MDT when you create a Task Sequence.
I am not trying to deploy a custom image, this is the base image that was taken off the DVD and imported to MDT. When I use the DVD to install the OS it works fine but not through MDT.
Any help will be much appreciated..
ThanksCheck your dism.log
You can find it on your client: C:\Windows\Logs\DISM\dism.log
This will tell you exactly which setting cannot be parsed.
Cheers!

Hi,
I follow up the book "Professional SharePoint 2013 Administration" to build the SharePoint 2013 BI include Excel Services. and created the Secure Store services to save the user SP_Install for member.
For Now, I can upload the worksheet and open it in browser, but when I tried to refresh it, the SP 2013 show error "Error occurred while accessing application id Excel services application unattended service account from secure store service".
does anybody can help ? and do I need to turn on C2WTS ?
Thanks
James LiangHi James,
Excel Services can be used with Secure Store in three primary scenarios:
Unattended Service Account
Embedded Connections
External Data Connections
If you haven't configure unattended service account yet, you could refer to the article below:

My Classic IPod had been working perfectly with Windows Vista OS and on a dock. I left it unattended for 10 days, recharged it and tried to play music on the dock. All that shows on the screen is the Apple Logo and I am unable to restart or update the IPod. Any ideas???
The warranty entitles you to complimentary phone support for the first 90 days of ownership.

Commands to copy apps to local drive from networkshare and installing via unattend install
Hi Everyone,
I'm in the process of deploying and testing Windows 8.1 with different settings via unattended answer file. I would like to test out with another settings during unattended install but I'm having a hard time to implement it. Here is the scenario, I've a
server named WDS-DEP-SERV with a hard drive portioned into 2. One is C and other is E. On my E drive, I've a bunch of .exe apps saved. I would like my unattended answer file to pull those .exe apps over to the local drive from network share and install them
as the unattended install takes place. I'm looking for a command that can help me achieve it in a silent mode. During testing before, I was able to have my unattended file to pull VMware tools drivers from network share under RunSynchronousCommand parameter
with domain credentials of the network share and it installed successfully. For example, like this below.
\\WDS-DEP-SERV\E\Distribution\Drivers\setup64.exe /s /v "/qn REBOOT=ReallySuppress" /l C:\Windows\Temp\vmware_tools_install.log
I was searching online and came across a lot of things but none answered what I'm looking for. Can someone please reply back with the answers on how can I implement it in my unattended file.
1) To be able to have unattended file pulling drivers from network share, copy them over to local drive during unattended installation process and execute them silently. I need a command to pull this off.
2) What pass should I use in unattended file?
3) So far, I've used RunSynchronouscommand under Windows Deployement Neutral during "Specialize" pass to install just VMware tools. Is there a way to execute all apps in one go instead of doing it one at a time via Synchronouscommand? Please
correct me if I'm wrong, Is it true every time you use Synchronouscommands for various different apps or scripts to pull from network share, you'll have to use network credentials under each and every Synchronouscommands section. Like, if I add 4 SyncrhonousCommands
to the unattended file to pull 4 different apps or scripts from network share, I must provide network share credentials for each of those. Can it be just one time network share credentials under those and they all get pulled and executed during unattended
install?
Again, please if someone can get back to help me out. I would really appreciate it. Hope to hear from someone soon. Below is my unattended answer file in case someone would like to see it to understand better.

I am Creating a Kickstarter fund raising campaign video and need help with how to do it?
I need help in putting together a 2-3 minute video for my Kickstarter fund raising campaign titled 1 YEAR, 10,000 PIECES, 1 ARTIST Live Streaming 24/7. I only have images and voice to work with no video camera and I need as simple iMovie tutorial as possible since I have a brain injury disability, which means it takes me about 4 times longer then a person with an un-injured brain to put together something like this.
Thanks for the help!
KrisThere are good video Tutorials for iMovie here (iMovie 09) http://www.apple.com/findouthow/movies/
and here (iMovie 08) http://www.apple.com/findouthow/movies/imovie08.html.
Also here is a good written Tutorial. http://www.kenstone.net/fcp_homepage/imovie_09_stone.html
See especially this section of the Tutorial on adding Photos. http://www.kenstone.net/fcp_homepage/imovie_09_stone.html#photos
Good luck. -
I know there are similar other issues with IE 10 and Windows 7. This is WINDOWS 8.1, and the IE Welcome message is totally absent from the default unattend.xml in the c:\windows\panther directory. In fact, I did a sysprep without using any injected
unattend.xml - this is the Microsoft Default!
So I suspect this will start appearing all over again soon. Anyone figure out what was causing it?
Here is the new Specialize section from the xml:

I'm thinking of dumping the entire IE section and see what happens.I too received this error as I tried to run my first Windows 8.1 deployment. Per another post I commented out this line
<IEWelcomeMsg>false</IEWelcomeMsg>
from the IE section of the unattend.xml. I was then able to run my deployment. I do not see this line in your posting though.
I referenced this link even though it was for Windows 7.

Hope this helps someone.

To clarify, I edited the unattend.xml file from from Deployment Share, not C:\Windows\Panther.

Unattended Windows 8.1 Pro installation and Firmware integrated license key
I have a brand new Lenovo Thinkpad that comes with a Windows 8 Pro license. According to what I read, the product key for Windows 8 for this machine is integrated into its firmware so I should be able to install a Windows 8 or 8.1 on it without need of a
product key.
The machine came preloaded with Windows 7 and a recovery set of DVDs for Windows 8. I want to do a fresh installation of Windows 8.1 directly. This is a pilot device for our new generation of PCs. Therefore I want to use an unattended installation that is
automated with a XML response file.
The problem is now with the product key. When I do not specify a product key in the response file, then the installation fails. When I specify some other key in the response file (such as one from our MSDN subscription) then the installation succeeds and
Windows 8.1 automatically activates itself - but apparently using that MSDN key and not the one from the machine's firmware.
How can that problem be solved?Thanks for the answer, but it solves only half of my problem.
I can get through the installation with the default key. But then I cannot activate the system. It tells me that the key is not valid (well, true, the default key). But how do I get it to recognize the key stored in the computer's firmware?
The Thinkpad has a "Windows 8" license sticker with just the Windows logo but no product key on it. This means, the product key is stored in its firmware memory.
