Setup Guide

Installing Dell 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

Configuration Manager.

To verify the status of the SMS providers in the Configuration 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 Dell’s 13th generation 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 config 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 R730, R730 XD, R630, T630 and Precision 7910, disable USB

3.0 Setting and Memory Mapped I/O above 4 GB.
