Hello, I'm following this guide How to capture an image using IMAGEW.EXE with provisioning in Management Suite 9.6
I'm pretty sure I have everything in order, all machines are in the same gateway/network the bare metal server has been set as well as my PXE reps.
When I get tot the last step which is boot the machine form NET PXE I keep getting error PXE-E53 : No boot filename received, my scheduled task looks good and it gets the IP of the machine I want to image (the bare metal server for which I entered its MAC address) so I assume it can see it in the network.
So I gave up on booting from PXE and booted from USB (provisioning Boot Media) and the weird thing is that I do not get the usual Enter domain credentials and select Template, it just starts working (using the PXE provisioning Template that I created), meaning that the capture starts and completes just fine, creating the .tbi file as expected. at this time my PXE task changes to working...
And the Bare Metal Server restarts (after the capture task finished -due to setting in the capture task, as expected), the working stat has been like that for a while so I do not know if is still working or not, since the size of the .tbi has been the same for a few minutes now
Questions:
1. Is this the expected behavior? I thought the concept of using PXE Net Boot was to NOT use the USB (provisioning Boot Media) and that it would get the task from the network.
2. If the above is not as expected, what do I suppose to see once the system boots from PXE Net Boot? Is a DOS screen so I imagine it will be some kind of task detailing the progress of the capture?
Your help is really appreciated.
Thank you.
