Hello Andrew,
Thanks for your response. I'm running a Build & Capture task sequence on a Lenovo ThinkPad T430, which does not have a SSD in it. Additionally, since I am running ConfigMgr 2012 SP1 CU3, I do not have the SMSTSMPListRequestTimeout task sequence variable available to me. It looks like, based on the "How fast are SSDs?" thread that, that variable is only available in ConfigMgr 2012 R2. While I'm not entirely ruling out the possibility that adding a "wait" might help things, on the other hand, I am seeing some error messages in the logs that indicate communication failures between the client and Management Point. These have me somewhat concerned. I'm going to test out with a 60 second wait, and see what happens. FYI: This is a build & capture task sequence. The computer never touches Active Directory.

It sounds like a similar problem. The app step tries to run before the computer has registered on the domain. That would be why it doesn't look up AD and reverts to DNS (in the locationservices.log). Perhaps try using the SMSTSMPListRequestTimeout variable? Andrew The locationservices.log you posted doesn't show an attempt at AD lookup for site and unless you are using DNS lookup then it will fail if the computer has not yet logged on to the domain. The install package step is a little more resilient, and slower than install application (and software updates, both are based on CIs) Von: [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> [mailto:[email protected]] Im Auftrag von Trevor Sullivan Gesendet: Donnerstag, 31.

However, once it hits the "Install Application" or "Install Software Updates" steps, it fails.

It's pretty basic stuff. The Management Point is hosted on the Primary Site server, and the PXE-enabled Distribution Point (Server 2008 R2 SP1) is sitting in the local office, where the client is (but on a different subnet). An IP helper is being used to point the client subnet to the PXE server, which also hosts DHCP (requires DHCP option 60 to be configured to "PXEClient"). Here's what the Build & Capture task sequence looks like (based on the template): * Set a couple TS Variables * Format Disk * Apply OS Image (imported install.wim, not using OS installer) * Apply Windows Settings * Apply Network Settings * Apply Drivers (used Driver category to limit only wired NIC and SATA driver) * Setup Windows & ConfigMgr (includes CU3 patch via PATCH MSI property) * Install Application o <ERROR> At the <ERROR> point, I'm seeing that the client is not getting assigned to a Primary Site correctly, however the SMSSLP registry value is being set correctly. The client is most certainly inside an IP range Boundary that is a member of two different Boundary Groups: one for site assignment and one for content location. Check out the relevant log snippets below. Any thoughts on what's causing this?
