  • 1.  Deployment Solution 7.6 Disk Partition not created

    Posted Jun 10, 2016 12:37 PM

    Hello

    We using Deployment Solution 7.6. We have standard image captured and that we want to deploy on new Bare Metal machine which we just purchased.

    Disk is of 500GB capacity so we dont want 1 Single partition. If we deploy pre-captured image on to it, then it will create 1 single partition and loads image into that only. We want create atleast 2 partitions and deploy image into primary one. We have set below task

    1) Erase Disk

    2) Partition Disk

    3) Deploy Image

    4) Reboot to Production

    But it fails to create partition on machine and deployed image with single drive.

    If we deploy scripted image on stage point 3 then it will create two partitions.

    Hi,

    how is the partition disk task configured? Can you make a screenshot or explain it, please? Why are you doing the partition disk task when you are going to deploy an image?

    Regards

    Hi,

    as I understand: you have captured an image with two partitions, right?

    If this is the case you also need to create two partitions with the "create partition" task. Have you done this?

    Hi everyone,

    The best way for me is to create a job which folows this process:

    - task to deploy your image like you do.

    - task to reboot the machine.

    -  task to excecute this script on your machine to create a new partition: %systemroot%\system32\bdeHdCfg.exe -target default -size 500 -quiet

    Have a nice day.
