PXE boot SCCM2012 on Windows Server 2012

[LimeLover]

Hi guys,

 

Im busy trying to install SCCM2012 on Windows Server 2012 using the SP1 update provided by microsoft to support this, but am running into some PXE boot issues.

 

Please see the attached file for the log - There are some issues with installing WDS it seems. Does anyone have a solution for this? I do see WDS is installed in the server manager now but when I open the WDS console the status is "NOT CONFIGURED"

 

See attachment for screenshot of distmgr.log

Hello!

 

I am currently running Server 2012 and CM 2012 on my system, and if you want to be able to PXE boot , you will have to add the WDS role on the server first, then add the PXE options to the DP.

 

Start the WDS Config util but dont make any img or anything, just the initial configuration, se if that helps.

Hi OneOne,

 

I've tried this, but it still does not seem to work. When I look in C:\RemoteInstall I also do not see the SMSBoot images folder bieing created. Also when adding the PXE option to the DP it still gives the same error in the distmgr.log.

Have you checked the PXE option on the boot images?

 

check out step 3.

Hi OneOne,

 

Yes, I just double checked and yes, I enabled the PXE boot on both images and deployed them. I just dont see them appear in the remote install folder.

Yes this has happend to me before.

 

Remove the WDS role, remove all the PXE checkboxes on the boot img and DP.

 

after uninstalling everyhing reboot and remove all the folders manually.

 

Reinstall WDS

Add the PXE options to DP and boot img

 

 

Good luck!
