Running RIS on Windows Server 2003 and have uploaded a couple of ready built images to the server using RIPREP.

I am now trying to associate a custom answer file with one of the images. When I have the selection list of images it only shows the basic image copied over when running rissetup and does not list the other two that I have added. I have restarted the services for RIS for any new setting sto tak eaffect but the images still do not list.

As I understand it, all the images should list here.

Any help greatly appreciated.

Hi,

Riprep images are HAL dependant. RIS checks the HAL type of the machine you're using to view then menu with against the HAL type mentioned in the sif file of each image on the server. If the HAL types mis-match then the image will not be displayed.

A classic example is creating riprep images on a hyper-threaded machine and then attempting to deploy them to an older non-hyperthreaded box.

Different HAL types -> no images displayed.

Good luck,

Andy

Many thanks for reply. Sounds like I should use the original machine the image was created on to create the answer file using SETUPMGR. Created it originally from my own workstation which has a different hardware setup.
