How to fix system booting issues after successful OS deployment?

This document will explain the steps to fix booting issues after a successful OS deployment.

Steps

Ensure that the required OS partition and system-reserved partitions are selected while creating the image and deployment template. If not, create a new image without de-selecting the default partitions or select all the available partitions and create a new deployment template using that image and try deployment.
 

Ensure that the following BIOS settings are the same in both source & target machines,

  • Boot firmware mode
  • Secure boot mode
  • SATA settings
 
Follow the steps given below if the issue persists, 
 
  1. Download the XML from this link in the machine where Endpoint Central server is installed. 
  2. From the downloaded XML files, copy DisableSATARegistry.xml and EnableSATARegistry.xml files and paste them into the installation path DesktopCentral_Server\bin
  3. Open Windows command prompt and execute the command - ExecuteQuery.bat DisableSATARegistry.xml
  4. Try deployment after disabling the settings. If the issue persists try deployment after enabling the settings using the command - ExecuteQuery.bat EnableSATARegistry.xml
 
If the issue persists even after following the above steps, please contact support with server logs and the deployment status UI screenshot.
