If you're using Altiris, it would be even easier to script the Metaframe install after laying down the image.

A new image fixed it, but I believe that's only because it had a fresh lhc (as recreating the lhc after a build also fixed the problem). We now do a recreatelhc after the image has been applied before restarting the IMA service. Not saying this is the solution though, still looking into the specifics. _____ From: thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Stratton, Doug MSER:EX Sent: 15 March 2005 20:30 To: 'thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx' Subject: [THIN] cloneing mfpsv3 What we are doing: We are setting up servers using sysprep. We set it all up, install mf, do the clean up as per citrix cloning docs (does not include removing from farm in anyway). Then sysprep it. Problem is: The box we initially sysprep from does not go back into the farm correclty ever again. We image it and try to add to farm and it does not work. We have to do dsmaint recreatelhc to get it to go in. I noticed that before adding it back the server is gone from the farm except that it still shows up under zone information? _______________________________________________ Doug Stratton CITS Technology Development Analyst Work: 250-356-6678 doug.m.stratton@xxxxxxxxx _______________________________________________ **************************************************************************** SMOKE ALARMS SAVE LIVES Go to London Fire at www.london-fire.gov.uk/firesafety This email is confidential to the addressee only.
