For the first cause, either remove the space in the path to the Ghost image file, or add quotations to the tokenized destination in the 'Additional Parameters' field:
-clone,MODE=create,SRC=1,DST="%IMAGE_FILENAME%" -sure
For the second cause:
1. Check permissions of the eXpress share.
2. Try changing the mapping letter of the pre-boot to 'I' or something higher than 'F'
For the third cause:
For the other cause, test another machine of the same hardware.
For the known issue with file extensions: When you create a job with the Distribute Disk Image task, then select the GHO file to be deployed and save the task, everything will work properly. But, if you need to edit the task, to change a parameter (like the Sysprep field as an example), you will need to go back into the field where you specify the GHO file name and re-select it. Even if you do not touch that field, incorrectly, the Imaging Tool is being reset to RDeploy, but retains the Ghost image information. The result is that when the job is deployed to a client computer, the command line will be for RDeploy.exe, but with the GHO filename. This of course will error out, many times with an "-99" error.
Additionally when every thing else looks good upgrade to Ghost Solution Suite 3.1 MP1 as there was an issue addressed in this release that would resolve an issue where the image would be created but the job would report a failure. See the release note for Ghost Solution Suite 3.1 MP1 DOC9206
Development is currently working towards a resolution to the status code of 104 or 106. Please subscribe to this tech article and you will be notified, through email, when a fix has been made available.
There is a work around that will allow you to continue imaging while we work on the issue. For imaging imaging task you need to add the 104 or 106 as a success exit code. Here's how.
- After choosing a capture or deploy task you need to hit NEXT to get to the Return Codes section of the task.
- Click on Add
- For the Code: value put either 104 or 106
- For the Response: put Continue
- For the Result: section put Succes
This will still get your a -99 for the status within the GSS console but it will show as a green check for success. This will also allow you to continue with other tasks within the same imaging job.
