    @sebastian-roth said in Dell Optiplex 7050's:

    registered correctly. The only exception here is that the model we are purchasing still has the 6th generation CPU (skylake) processors installed. Let me boot it and see what nic is installed.

    So in response to the other form you would like to know what generation CPU the 7050 has?

      @msaglioc99 @Sebastian-Roth is asking for the exact bios version that is installed and the information which cpu is inside wouldn’t harm.

        @msaglioc99 just for reference you can tell the version in the firmware on the General -> System information page, its right at the top. Also scroll down that page and look at Processor information, not the processor used so we can look up the generation. In my case the 7050 has an i5-6500 which is a skylake processor or a Gen 6 processor.

        Please help us build the FOG community with everyone involved. It's not just about coding - way more we need people to test things, update documentation and most importantly work on uniting the community of people enjoying and working on FOG!

            Bios Version 1.4.4
            Processor: 4 Coures Intel® Core™ i5

            Here are also screenshots of the BIOS.

              @msaglioc99 OK so we now have a few more datapoints (not an agreed solution only data points) .

              You are running firmware 1.4.4 and my system is running 1.5.2. There is no additional releases between the two versions.

              Here is what is fixed in the 1.5.2 release

              Fixes & Enhancements
              Fixes:
              Addressed a SMART event reporting issue when using NVMe SSD.
              Addressed a BIOS recovery issue when recovering from internal Hard Drive.
              Addressed discrete graphic configuration incorrect.
              Addressed no display with Intel Management remote control.
              
              Enhancements:
              Added the PCI Express Active-State Power Management (ASPM) option in BIOS menu.
              Updated Computrace BIOS persistence module.
              Updated processor microcode.
              Updated Intel graphic VBIOS to 9.0.1051 version
              Improve acoustic noise.
              

              In other words nothing really that addresses this issue. I would still go ahead and update the firmware on the failing one to see if you can get it to register correctly.

              As for the processor your system is running a Gen7 processor which means the Kaby Lake arch instead of what I’m running Sky Lake. Does this mean anything?? I don’t know at this point, only noting that its different.

              Have you tried to place a dumb (unmanged) switch between your building switch and your 7050 computers on a consistent basis? Does this magically address your issues? There has to be something unique with either the 7050s or your networking infrastructure.

              Please help us build the FOG community with everyone involved. It's not just about coding - way more we need people to test things, update documentation and most importantly work on uniting the community of people enjoying and working on FOG!

                Updating the BIOS now.

                  @msaglioc99 I have two 7050s that I was having issues with (different issue), but I can confirm that they register and image ok. What version of FOG are you on?

                    Sorry I posted the wrong link to the BIOS Version but I did flash the BIOS on the system and upgrade to 1.5.2. Still did not resolve the issue.

                          @msaglioc99 Are you doing them in UEFI or Legacy?

                              @msaglioc99 Weird, same.

                              Okay, let’s get in a bit closer. Do other machines on that same switch have any issues being inventoried by FOG?

                                No I am able to image and register other machines, and computer models. I only run into this issue with Dell Optiplex 7050’s.

                                    @msaglioc99 clear screen shots of the error are always helpful to set the context of the error.

                                      The Error is different every time. I will try and generate a couple of different scenarios. I’ve seen about 3 different Errors. Sometimes the screen comes up and lets me do the registration process but when I get to the end to enter the FOG GUI password it starts to write the password in plan text and just glitches out. Give me sometime to post screenshots.
