Troubleshooting
This section contains troubleshooting information for DSDP.
Uninstalling Dell EMC Server Deployment Pack using the
Control Panel
When uninstalling DSDP using the Control Panel, if uninstallation fails with the following error message:
“Error 1316. A network error occurred while attempting to read from the file C:\Windows
\Installer\Dell_EMC Server Deployment Pack v4.0 for Configuration Manager.msi”
Then to uninstall DSDP, double-click the DSDP setup executable or use the command line method.
Installing Dell EMC Server Deployment Pack when one or more
SMS providers are down
You cannot install DSDP successfully when one or more SMS providers are down. You can verify if the SMS providers are running in the
Conguration Manager.
To verify the status of the SMS providers in the Conguration Manager, click Monitoring > Overview > System Status > Component
Status. The status of the components is displayed on the right-hand side. Ensure that the SMS providers are up and running.
Deploying OS on 13th generation of PowerEdge platforms
using WinPE 3.0
As the drivers for USB3.0 are not available in WinPE 3.0, the OS deployment may fail if the BIOS cong settings for USB 3.0 Setting and
Memory Mapped I/O above 4 GB are enabled.
Solution: To boot to winPE3.x (32–bit and 64–bit) in BIOS boot mode on 13th generation PowerEdge servers, disable USB 3.0 Setting and
Memory Mapped I/O above 4 GB.
