Problem



When using the Console to restore a Syspreped Image that contains single DNS/WINS entries and you use a Configuration Set to add new DNS/WINS Entries, the machine fails to reboot to Windows.

 


Cause



This issue occurs when the Configuration set modifies the Sysprep Unattend file in order to add the new DNS/WINS IP addresses and the additions become comma delimited instead of new separate line entries.


Solution



There is currently no Solution to this issue. The Workaround is to run two separate Tasks, one to restore the Syspreped Image and a second to run the Configuration Set in order to update the DNS and WINS entries.
