PXE OR WDS ISSUE

[SBabicki]

I seem to be having a PXE OR WDS ISSUE.

 

INFO

 

2 enviorments

PROD 27 servers it has it's own SCCM server

PREPROD 19 servers it has it's own SCCM server

 

the last time a server had to PXE from either SCCM server was over a year ago.

I have inspected both servers side by side all looks the same.

 

I have recently had to pxe a server to reimage it and i get nowhere please see the screenshot.

it scrolls through all nics with the same result.

 

any help is greatly appriciated.

 

Thanks Sean

what you are seeing is a 'normal' Optional PXE boot menu, if you press F12 (as you see at the bottom of the screen) when it appears, do you then see Windows PE loading and a task sequence (or task sequences menu) kick off ?

None at all.

should i reinstall wds and the OS files?

[anyweb]

no dont do that

 

try setting the dhcp option 67 to \smsboot\x86\pxeboot.com then restart the dhcp service

ok, i changed that option, but wds has a check box that has to be checked that tells it pxe not to listen on 67.

i restarted dhcp, an dunchecked the option in wds. rebooted got the same result.

 

i tried to restart wds without that option checked, but with out it wds will not start.

ok after thinking about how your environment is set up, lets step back a bit here, have you imported this computer (name plus mac address) into SCCM yet (using computer association) ?

yes, it is a reinstall so i remved it from sccm and and did the computer association, as tought by the master, haha

 

also still on the server is the origional mac address list from the origional install, i verified it from there as well.
