You can also add the following to your customsettings.ini , or set the variable in your task sequence as a test. Then it will live log to the deployment share.

Something is not working right (obviously) as the reboot after sysprep should result in booting from Windows PE, not back into the OS. If you've got the full logs (BDD.LOG especially), that would be useful for troubleshooting.

I do not seem to have the ZTIBackup.wsf file anywhere on the local drive of the machine. I assume it is needed to start the capture of the .WIM as the last task sequence is cscript.exe "%SCRIPTROOT%\ZTIBackup.wsf" It is not in the MININT\Scripts nor is it in _SMSTaskSequence\Scripts Surely this should have been copied down during the deployment. Could I not just add this to the folder and it should run?

I got a bit farther. It now does the reboot after applying sysprep, and when it reboots it is supposed to start the capture, but it doesn't it just comes back up to the desktop and then after 5 ish minutes I get the same connection error to the share. I got passed the first error by changing the install Task Sequence under the Install Phase from "select the location where you want to apply this operating system" - logical drive letter stored in variable To Specific disk and partition This got me by the first connection error, rebooted and then failed to connect again to start the WIM creation. Still not sure what the issue is.

Nothing fancy. This TS just installs Windows on the VM, then pauses then captures. And yes I do get a network IP address. I use Bridged-network for the VMWare network setting. I can browse to the actual folder using the same user name and password in my bootstrap.ini and it connects.

Thanks, -Michael From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Kevin Johnston Sent: Wednesday, January 8, 2014 8:25 PM To: '[email protected]' Subject: [MDT-OSD] Connection Issue to deployment share Okay I have an issue that has been a thorn in my side ever since I upgraded my MDT server from 2010 U1 to 2012 U1. The existing Windows 7 images work fine, and My capture task works fine. So I decided I would build a brand new image, so I use VMware and have a task that does the "install Windows 7 then adds a Pause sequence" This is pretty much just like my old task I have used in the past. So in VMWare I have the OS installed, and I setup my software, etc... then I click on the pause sequence (LTISuspend) and then I get an error A connection to the deployment share could not be made. Connection OK. Possible cause : invalid credentials. I have triple checked that the permissions are right, and the folder has the same rights, etc.. So I figured maybe it is something new with 2012. So I created a whole new share, set it up with vmdrivers, the OS, etc.. and did all the same steps and I still get the same error. It usually reboots and then starts the capture task, but it gives me this error before the VM restarts. I have read some people used the IP address and it worked, so I did that and still nothing. I have looked at the BDD.log and the LitTouch.log files located in the C:\MININT\SMSOSD\OSDLOGS and I don't see anything except the error.. Is there anything I can try to get this to work?
