Very true. Right now I kick in the High Performance setting immediately prior to applying the image. That seems to be the one noticable slowdown. I think I'll keep it at that and not add the setting throughout. It's a good point, Andreas. It's better to be safe than sorry. ________________________________________ From: [email protected] [[email protected]] on behalf of Andreas Hammarskjöld [[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, June 15, 2016 4:03 AM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [External] [mssms] RE: [MDT-OSD] Does OSDApplyOS.exe log anywhere?
Win10 PE has powercfg.exe so it’s a one liner in the TS for peeps not using PS in their images. Be aware though that WinPE might be missing pieces to detect that the CPU gets too warm and you might run into BSOD’s. //A From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Marable, Mike Sent: den 15 juni 2016 04:39 To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [External] [mssms] RE: [MDT-OSD] Does OSDApplyOS.exe log anywhere? This might be handy. Maybe I’ll give that a try too. The end result is the same, but the one-liner is a little “clearer” than the GUID for when others have to work on the task sequence.

A person further down on that page in the comments section said he was able to get the same power change benefits by using a one line PowerShell command: (gwmi -NS rootcimv2power -Class win32_PowerPlan -Filter "ElementName ='High Performance'").Activate() He placed it in different parts of the task sequence and reduced him image time significantly.

That seemed to do the trick! I’m testing it side by side with two machines and the decompression/application of the image flew on the machine where I used this hack. Thanks Keith! I owe you one!!

You might try the Power Management hack for WinPE: https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/deploymentguys/2015/03/26/reducing-windows-deployment-time-using-power-management/ That won’t speed up the NIC, or the SSD, but it will speed up the processor, which in this case is processing the decompression from the WIM file.

I’m trying to troubleshoot some slow performance when applying the image during an OS deployment since upgrading our site to SCCM 1511. The WIM file is downloaded rapidly from the Distribution Points to the local cache, but when SCCM begins applying it to the hard drive it seems to slow way down. Below is the SMSTS log of a sample machine. It took a little over 20 minutes to apply the ~6GB image and this was on an SSD. I have seen it take well over a few hours for the image to apply (again on an SSD), so while the 20 minutes in this log may not seem too bad, there is definitely a problem I need to get sorted out. Is there any logging that would show what is happening between the two highlighted log entries?
