FOG Client 0.11.12 Released
-
@fry_p The blackest magic.

@Tom-Elliott Voodoo!
@Joe-Schmitt please details.
-
@x23piracy @fry_p Basically I finally had the time to rework how domain joining / renaming happened to only require 1 reboot to apply all the changes.
-
@joe-schmitt Our new HP machines are working as they should (renaming and joining the domain), but older machines on which we have installed the same new W10 (sysprep) image are not renaming and not joining the domain. What can we do about this? BIOS of the machines have been updated. Machines are f.ex. Dell Optiplex 3010.
-
@josken71 does your windows system have the network drivers for the dell machines? The client doesn’t sound like it’s the problem here as the client is working on the same exact image for the hp machines.
-
@josken71 I think I am having a similar issue, on specific Dell computers (Optiplex 380s for example). Newer Dell computers do not have the issue. After imaging is complete, post sysprep re-enables the FOG Client and reboots the computer; on the troublesome computers the FOG Client never full re-enables. If you log in as local admin and check under services the FOG Client is set to automatic, but not started. If we manually start the service, the computer reboots after a few minutes, joins the domain, and renames the computer as expected.
This is not a problem on newer Dell computers or VMs.

@jeffrey-boulais we have seen occurances of this in the past where we had race conditions while starting the service, could you please try to set the service from auto to delayed-auto? will this work? Which version of windows are you using?
How do you deal with the fog client? You need to disable the service before you create the image and you have to enable it again while deploying (setupcomplete.cmd).

@x23piracy I believe this may have solved our issue; we are still testing. This was for a Windows 10 LTSB image.
-
@jeffrey-boulais there is a LTSB of 2015 and 2016, 2015 is 1511 and 2016 1607 afai remember 1511 still had the autostart problem.
-
@x23piracy That image is on 1607.
