PXE Server Point Config

Recommended Posts

Hi guys,

 

I know it's probably been done to death, but this one just has me boggled.

 

We have a relatively new installation of SCCM r2 on a 2008r2 box. We are doing a server bulldoze at all our sites so I thought it would be best to configure them prior to sending them out to the business. Each server was configured as a DP and a PSP. They were tested and worked fine.

 

Now however, we dropped a server onsite over the weekend and promoted it to a DC. As soon as this has happened the WDS service won't run anymore. SCCM is reporting the following:

 

PXE Control Manager detected PXE service point is not responding to PXE requests. The error is 16389.

 

Possible cause: PXE service point is not started or not responding.

Solution: Manually restart the PXE service point.

 

Possible cause: WDS service is not responding.

Solution: Manually restart the WDS service.

 

 

To me it looks like a permissions thing. When the server was not a DC, I added our SCCM server into the local administrators group of the server - this got it working. As you know, local users and groups disappears from a server when it gets promoted.

 

Where should I be looking to fix this?

 

Thanks in advance guys.

so you took your sccm server and upgraded it to a domain controller ? have you tried uninstalling the psp, then wds, reboot, reinstall

SCCM sits on its own, non-dc server.

 

All our site servers are going to be DC's though. They work until we promote them to DC's... It has to have something to do with permissions.

 

I've uninstalled and reinstalled PSP since promotion.
