You were correct, using DCC is not an option. I did find that by using the CMD prompt and entering
bcdedit.exe /enum
it will display your working Windows Boot Manager but not the extras. However, if you use
bcdedit.exe /enum firmware
it will display all the different WBMs, even the faulty ones.
I am currently trying to build a script that will remove the false entries.
@zer0cool I am using Dell Command Configure, Dell just has the exe file labeled as CCTK.exe. There is not really an error message that pops up but the utility can not set the boot order once the “Windows Boot Manager” has more than two duplicate entries because the uefi.x gets out of order and it selects the wrong device. If I can’t get the boot order set than it will require our techs to visit the machine to PXE boot it because it will have the OS set as the first boot device. Plus, you can only have so many WBM entries so I have read.
@zer0cool Here is my Setup.cmd file
cls
set mydir=%~dp0

@quazz Dell Optiplex 9020, 7050, 7440, 7450, and all BIOS on those models are up to date.
I have ran into a problem where each time a machine is imaged using UEFI it does not remove the old “Windows Boot Manager” and creates a new entry after each image. Currently my Test machine has 5 WBM entries.The reason this is an issue is because the Setup.cmd script I am using sets the boot order to "Network IPv4, CD-ROM,HDD but with multiple entries it screws up because of the false entries. Has anyone had a similar issue or know a way to reset it during or after imaging?
Thanks,
@sebastian-roth said in Trouble Copying Image to other Fog Servers:
ls -alR /images/
Sorry, that was a typo, the name of the image is Win7MasterNoIEv4 on both the WebGUI and the Folder itself.
Here is the output of the Node:

I was able to delete the image from the node and let it sync through the FogImageReplicater service and it worked fine. The problem is I still do not have a way to copy my images to the main fog server at Site B from other sites. I have to pull the machine at site B and take it back to site A so it can upload the image directly then take it back to site B. I have 5 other sites that the image can be rsync’ed to and it works with no issues.
I took the Fog server from Site B to Site A and uploaded the image directly with no issues. I then took it back to site B and it had no issues deploying. I then reconnected Nodes 1, 2, and 3 to the fog server in site B, gave it time to replicate, then tried to image from the storage nodes. I received the same issue shown in the screen shot above.
@sebastian-roth it does not show any kind of blue screen. It shows the screen just before partclone takes off then goes to the error shown above.
@tom-elliott After that screen it just runs through the PostDownloadScript sequence then reboots and the task it removed from Fog as though it completed.
