  • 1.  Bootwiz - Dagent from WinPE4, computers are not appearing on DS console

    Posted Feb 27, 2014 03:32 PM

    Since i am not able to post in this locked thread, https://www-secure.symantec.com/connect/forums/dagent-winpe4-computers-are-not-appearing-ds-console , i am posting a new one. 

    I am having similar issues in my environment.  I followed the thread above trying to run the dism command however i do not have those directories.  But I am using bootwiz so maybe its a different location/command?  Please note the altiris files are on E drive....E:\Program Files (x86)\Altiris\eXpress\Deployment Server.  WinPE2 works fine.  Just trying to get WinPE4 to work.

    Below are the images/errors i am getting. 

    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Thanks

    This screen looks the same as the winpe2.photo 3.JPG

     

    Then after 30 seconds i get this message that its connected. Notice there's no computer name or MAC address.  PC mac address cannot be found in Altiris DS.

    This is what is suppose to happen and what we get when we use winpe2.photo 1.JPG

     

    Thanks again.

    Was able to get in contact with Altiris support.  Fix was to rename the folder E:\Program Files (x86)\Altiris\eXpress\Deployment Server\waik to waik.old.  Then rebuild the winpe4 config.

    In the deployment console/Tools/boot menu/new/add pre-boot

    Select winpe4/pre-installed adk

    After that, i was able to recreate another boot disk via usb and it finally checked in with the DC.
