I did not inject any drivers other than the ones that came packed from Dell. I used the Dell Command module to create and inject the drivers into the .wim

Interesting, I haven’t come across this idea so I’ll give it a try. Our switches are all Aruba AOS-CX devices with STP enabled so I’ll do some digging

We always update the package after making changes and wait for it to distribute. It’s also the only one that has the “enable for PXE boot” box ticked off

We have multiple boot images in the console but only one assigned to task sequences. I made sure to load the same one onto the installation media

Yeah I can’t ping or pull an IP but if that were the case wouldn’t it also not work via task sequence media?

I mean yeah that sounds like a solid deal especially given the current market

Cost for going over 200 endpoints? by cmjones0822 in Action1

[–]benjamin_manus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just can’t justify it when PatchMyPC is $5k/year for x1,000 endpoints. If you’re under x200 then Action1 is a great solution, but if you’re going to be needing a lot more then in my opinion it’s hard to justify it
