Deployment Solution

Hi All,

when trying to restore an image from a hidden (Linux) automation partition using auto:%ID%.img as the image name, I get the error "The operation was cancelled." The log file content is:

Error description:

saving the image to the hidden partition using the same image file name (auto:%ID%.img) works absolutely fine.

Has anybody encountered this before and knows what I am doing wrong?

Please let me know and Many Thanks in advance,

Peter

Hi All,

replacing "auto:" with "/mnt/automation/" resolved this issue. Using auto: actually tries to upload an image called "auto" to the Deployment Server share and the process completes successfully. Since the filename is invalid it results in a 0 Byte file.

Cheers,

Peter

For those of you using WinPE you can't use auto: either.
Use C:%ID%.img
C is the automation partition when you are booting from the hidden partition
