Process to replace old PXE boot image with new boot image

Recommended Posts

Hi All,

 

I have a working PXE environment and need to update boot image with new version to support newer operating systems.

 

On current boot image(6.3.9600)

1. Uncheck "Deploy this boot image from the PXE enabled distribution point"

2. Update distribution points

 

New Boot image(10)

1. Import new boot image

2. Check the "Deploy this boot image from the PXE enabled distribution point"

3. Update the boot image to PXE enabled distribution points.

 

Is there anything i missed in SCCM to configure and do i need to make any changes in DHCP servers?

There should be no need to remove the old boot file from the DP, just distribute new boot file to the DP with the above configs and then just edit your last deployed TS to the unknown Computer collection and any TS's that are deployed out to custom collections to use the new boot file. This will allow any OSD clients to use the new boot file and you also keep your old one on the DPs if needed for any reason down the line.

Your CM version would need to support WinPE10.0 also.

Thanks for reply, TS is already deployed to custom collection before and i dont think i need to change anything on TS side.

i have checked CM is supporting WinPE 10.0

If you want to use a new Boot file on an already existing TS then you have to change the boot file it is using by selecting the properties of the TS and change it.

When creating a new TS just select the new boot file at time of TS creation on bootfile option.

 

As stated
