You probably need the raid drivers imported into your winpe or you can change the bios mode from raid to ahci

@theopenem_admin I checked the raid configuration. It is currently set to RAID. I made the change and I get past the error message I was seeing. No once it starts the image is errors out when it starts writing the image file. The error message flashes so quickly I can't read it.

dannyneunan

@theopenem_admin do you recommend a particular procedure to add the dell drivers? I've seen several online. Does one version work best for TheOpenem server environment?

theopenem_admin

The driver wouldn't matter if you switched to ahci. Can you attach your deploy log?

dannyneunan

In the past I have been able to pull the usb drive out after the image starts but this time it looked like it was accessing the USB drive. When I pulled the usb it crashed. What has changed from the imaging process I am familiar with? Here is the log:

Do you see anything in the log files that might help me?

@dannyneunan said in No hard detected for deployment:

Set-Partition : The requested access path is already in use.

This is probably the issue, but not sure why. Is it working fine on other models?

dannyneunan

@theopenem_admin yes this image works fine on other models. I tried using another image file to put on this new machine and they all fail. Could it be something with my deploy profile?

dannyneunan

Here is the configuration of the deploy profile for that image.

dannyneunan

I believe I figured it out. When I changed the bios settings to AHCI it blew out the boot manager configuration. Once I loaded an operating system back on it from a usb drive and tried again with the AHCI it appears to be working. I'll give you a final report if it finishes without any problem. Stay tuned.

dannyneunan

It imaged fine after I got the boot manager back into the bios.

theopenem_admin

In that case you should probably just add the driver to your winpe so you can leave it on raid. This is the latest driver from intel
https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/download/720755/intel-rapid-storage-technology-driver-installation-software-with-intel-optane-memory-11th-and-12th-gen-platforms.html

Just download the zip, extract it and put it in your winpe/optional/drivers folder and rebuild winpe

dannyneunan

@theopenem_admin do you mean I should drop the drivers in this exact location? I just want to confirm before I proceed.

theopenem_admin

Yeah. You can put them in a sub folder also to keep them organized. The rapid storage driver has many versions depending on your processor generation. I put all of them in my winpe image. Then just rebuild winpe.

dannyneunan

@theopenem_admin setting it back to RAID does not work in any configuration. I am able to get an image to take but on the reboot it never loads and crashes.

theopenem_admin

That's because your image doesn't have the needed drivers on it.

dannyneunan

@theopenem_admin So I need to boot from the new SuperISO file I just created with the drivers added and then upload my universal image again?

dannyneunan

So I tried updating my image and tried to use the latest SuperISO bootable disk to upload to my openem server. The imaging process starts fine but finishes in like 60 seconds. I know that is not log enough. When I go to the server this is what I see.

What am I missing here?

dannyneunan

Any suggestions? I'm kinda dead in the water at the moment. Thanks

theopenem_admin

I guess I'm unsure of the issue. Can't you just put the raid drivers into the image you are trying to deploy, instead of creating a new image?
