OS Deployment - Failed to get client identity 80004005

Hello all,

Hopefully someone will have a solution to this issue. I've only found one site with a similar problem (http://forums.microsoft.com/TechNet/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=2352753&SiteID=17)and the solution was to rebuild the SCCM server, which I have done. Yet the issue persists.After working my way through countless issues with SCCM, this seems to be the only obstacle in my way. Here is the situation:

1. I boot the bare metal client system to PXE and the boot image loads

2. The SCCM status messages appear "Windows is starting up..." and then "Preparing Network Connections..."

3. The client machine hangs for a minute or so, then reboots.

I have enabled the command prompt shell in the boot image and can ping the SCCM server and name resolution work fine, so I know it isn't an issue with the network drivers.Below is the log information from the client. Just as an FYI, the Server is running in "Mixed Mode", so I'm not really understanding the why theidentification is an issue. As best I can understand the client is requesting information from the server at a certain point and getting a blank reply.

No replies? Is SCCM really this poor of a product? I was hoping that the 5 day class I took about a month ago (where almost NONE of the labs worked for all class participants, and yes it was official microsoft learning material) was just a result of poor course material. Anyways, I'll humor myself (and perhaps someone else) by adding some additional information just in case I wasn't clear in the first post:

  • The aformentioned log information is from the SMSTS.log file straight from the client X drive.
  • The OS I'm attempting to deploy, which shouldn't matter, is windows XP
  • I wouldbe happy to provide any additional information

I would also recommend to any microsoft employee to check out the link I put in the first post. There are two people in that thread that were very upset with SCCM's functionality in the OS deployment area, and I'm feeling much like them at the moment. I have a feeling that their pleas for help have been ignored because the thread is listed as "answered". The fact that quite a few people have viewed this thread, but none have replied tells me that we should probably look for another solution for OS depoyment. This saddens me, because SCCM looked as if it could do great things. At least the idea and concept isthere, even if the functionality isn't.

Hi Glenn,

I've looked to your log file in trace32 (must have tool for troubleshooting)

The first thing i noticed is the error: reply has no message header marker after it contacts your sccm.mpmc.hos machine.

I would go and look to the IIS configuration on that machine, doublecheck if everything is working ok there. Look into the System Status | Site Status in your SCCM console. Check the IIS logging etc...

Hope this points you in the right direction.

Good luck,

Regards,

Kenneth

Thereare two identicalerrors intheSCCM logs(that I have no idea where to look to fix) that pop up twice an hour, they are 5436 and 5480 errors:

Event Type:Error
Event Source:SMS Server
Event Category:SMS_MP_CONTROL_MANAGER

Description:
On 06/12/08 03:40:19, component SMS_MP_CONTROL_MANAGER on computer SCCM reported: MP Control Manager detected management point is not responding to HTTP requests. The HTTP status code and text is 500, Internal Server Error.

Possible cause: Management point encountered an error when connecting to SQL Server.
Solution: Verify that the SQL server is properly configured to allow Management Point access. Verify that management point computer account or the Management Point Database Connection Account is a member of SMS Management Point Role (msdbrole_MP) in the SQL Server database.

Possible cause: The SQL Server Service Principal Names (SPNs) are not registered correctly in Active Directory
Solution: Ensure SQL server SPNs are correctly registered. Review Q829868.

Possible cause: Internet Information Services (IIS) isn't configured to listen on the ports over which SMS is configured to communicate.
Solution: Verify that the designated Web Site is configured to use the same ports which SMS is configured to use.

Possible cause: The designated Web Site is disabled in IIS.
Solution: Verify that the designated Web Site is enabled, and functioning properly.

Possible cause: The SMS ISAPI Application Identity does not have the requisite logon privileges.
Solution: Verify that the account that the SMS ISAPI is configured to run under has not been denied batch logon rights through group policy.

I've done some research on these two particular error messages, and I'm not sure that this is causing the issue, I think I read somewhere that these errors should only be of concern if you have mobile clients. Anyways, any suggestions as to where to look or what I could do to remediate the situation (other than re-install IIS, which I've done 3 times, all ended up with this same recurring message) would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,

Just some steps you can check to see if the problem is related to that:

Your site server should be made member of the administrators group of all machines which have an SCCM role, the services on the site server run under the system account. Please check this..

Does the computer account of the site server have enough rights in the SCCM DB?

Did you extend the AD schema? (ExtAdSch.exe?)

Did you create the System Management container in AD and set the security permissions on that?

Also check: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb694113(TechNet.10).aspxwhich details the prerequisites for installing SCCM2007. Do a check if you meet all the prerequisites.

I think your problem is related to the fact that your site server doesn't have sufficient rights. But that's just a guess.

Good luck

Kenneth

June 12th, 2008 4:14pm

  • I've checked the rights of the SCCM server to the DB, and it has the sysadmin role assigned to it
  • The AD schema has not been extended as we are testing the server at the moment. Keep in mind that all I'm trying to do at the moment is bare metal OS deployment.
  • Again, since we are testing at the moment and I'm only working with one machine at a time, no global permissions have been set in AD. Also, the permissionsneed to be given to the System container that is created with AD, not one that you have to create, or so I thought.
  • As for the prereqs, I'm very well informed about those . I've installed SCCM about three or four times in my home lab for testing purposes, and have done it about three times here at work on the server we are testing it with.

Thanks for the help, hopefully we will get there eventually...

Hi,

You are correct concerning the System Container, i was referring to the System Mangement container which must be available beneath it. But your computer account should have full control acces to the system container indeed.

I guess you have to start with all the possible causes from the errors youposted earlier. Check all of them.

Did i understand correctly that you have AD,SCCM and the SQL installed on one machine?

Nice problem you have there b.t.w.

June 12th, 2008 5:01pm

AD is not installed on the SCCM server, but SQL is. I've done tons of research regarding the error messages mentioned above, which led me to post here, since there is little to no information out there regarding these errors. The only solutions I've seen simply refer to re-installing or re-building (which I've done numerous times, checking prereqs and making sure that everything was done properly each time) and I think that I've done that enough to know that I'm setting it up right according to MS requirements. But every time I re-install or redo anything these same errors come back. Go figure.

First, excuse my english, but I'm from Argentina.

I has the same issue, and the solution was really simple.

The problem was in the client computer, that has wrong Time and Date in BIOS.
Simply adjust date and time to actual time, and the deployment works perfectly.

Lo escribo en espaol, por si le sirve a alguien, o por si lo que escribi en ingls est demasiado mal.

Yo tuve el mismo problema, y la solucin fue bastante simple.
El problema era que la fecha y la hora del cliente estaban mal, adelantadas respecto la hora del servidor.
Entre al BIOS Setup de la PC, correg la fecha y la hora, y asunto solucionado, el deployment funcion de maravillas.

i had this problem today on a virtual lab ive got setup here (windows 2008 server, with sccm 2007sp1 deploying windows server..)

i had to rewrite my task sequence as it was giving me problems -(configuring ADDS)and after going through all the steps I tried yet another pxe boot and it failed, this time with the pxe error Failed to get client identity 80004005 in the SMSTSlog

I checked this log against a know good one from earlier on the same server and indeed the time/date are processed shortly after words, however i pxe booted again and verified time/date on the virtual pc and they were absolutely correct

I tried this and that for 2 hours with no positive result, lastly i rebooted the server and lo and behold the pxe error was gone.

I agree that we need a decent troubleshooting option from Microsoft about this as the documentation appears to be whatever is here or on other forums and in a lot of cases there are no solutions

does changing a task sequence somehow reprogram the PXE setup for WDS/sccm ? I have another server (real) beside me that now wont process PXE boot requests anymore even though it was working fine !

PXE-E51: no DHCP or proxyDHCP offeres were received....

no switch just a crossover network cable between server and client, client was successfully deployed hours before with windows server 2008 via sccm via pxe boot.....

tried all the usual, not much hair left now....

found this site http://susanaguedes.spaces.live.com/Blog/cns!830A1768E1B27E94!350.entry

PXE-E51: No DHCP or proxyDHCP offers were received The PC cannot contact the DHCP server. Possible causes (see ref [19]):
  • There is a problem with the DHCP server
  • The network card or PXE boot portion of the network card is faulty
  • The network cable is faulty

tested the client PXE boot to another server, worked fine using same network card and cable

the DHCP server on the server reports no problems and has worked fine since I set it up some months ago, indeed if i boot the client into windows server it will get an ip no problem from the dhcp server

so what is wrong here ? how can WDS/ SCCM pxe boot functionality turn itself on or off at will with no user intervention ???

restarted the server 3 times, no difference, restarted WDS many times, no difference, restarted DHCP server service and now I get

PXE-E55: proxyDHCP service did not reply to the request on port 4011 As slightly less common one, with various causes (see ref [19]). Usually the PC has successfully contacted the DHCP server and the PC will even report its DHCP assigned IP address along with the error, but the RIS process could not continue for some reason. restarted the WDS service and it booted in Windows PE via pxe finally after hours of repetive tasks, only to bring me back to square one with the Windows PE rebooting itself immediatly after loading network support, ok, back to troubleshooting....

It looks to me like this is more a problem with the MP or IIS, and not with OS deployment.

I suggest that you first have a working MP before you try OS deployment. You need a working MP anyway for client management. See if you can have a functioning SCCM client that can talk to the MP, get client policies and run advertisements. If you can get that to work, you would have to post your questions to the SCCM client deployment forum.

Once you get yourself a working MP, look at the MP_ClientID.log file on the MP. That should tell you the reason why it could not find the identity of the client in the database.

I get this error when I change the web server certificate the MP is using. I went from a cert that featured the internal FQDN as the subject, and then internal&external as SANs to a cert that featured the external FQDN as the subject, and then external&internal as the SANs. This was becuase we're trying to use ISA tunneling to publish SCCM to the outside world.

I've even regenerated my boot images, just in case the boot image contains public keys or something. I'm using WDS separate from SCCM - no PXE service point. Basically, everything works great until I change the cert, and then it's all over.

Every log I have and every status summarizer is completely clean - the new (suspected cause of problem) certificate has been in place for a full day now, and still no errors logged anywhere. So I'm thinking the cert is valid, trusted, and the MP is working fine. Is there something I need to refresh when the cert changes?

Thanks,
Andrew

IS it just your WDS server that is not working or OSD in ConfigMgr? Can you deploy a task sequence and build from boot media?

We're also getting 0x80004005 / failed to get client identity, but only under certain conditions:

Mixed Mode SCCM 2007 SP1 with SQL 2005 SP2 running on the Primary Site Server, all sites are Windows 2003 x86 SP2 (Enterprise or Standard) unpatched.

OSD works perfectly at the Central Site, as well as at child (2nd-tier) Primary Sites, and third-tier Secondary Sites running either on Domain Controllers or Member Servers.

OSD also works perfectly at direct Secondary Sites of the Central Site, where the Secondary Site is installed on a member server rather than on a Domain Controller.

But we're getting the client identity error on all bare metal deployment attempts at all direct Secondary Child Sites of the Central Site, where SCCM is running on the Domain Controller. (We have tried 3 different sites so far, and we have identified this as a pattern). This particular scenario describes the majority of our secondary sites.

Normal Software Distribution at each of these sites works perfectly, so I doubt that there is a Management Point or IIS problem. We have triple-checked our configuration.

We also see the HTTP Status 503 from the Management Point described here: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/configmgrosd/thread/c255018a-3017-4cd1-a99d-2dc02c0d4bba

I agree there needs to be a step-by-step guide to troubleshooting this problem.
June 25th, 2009 3:25pm

Niall C Brady,
Have you checked to make sure you have DHCP option 66 set? It needs your PXE Service Point server as it's value (i.e. servername.domain.com or whatever your case is). I'm not sure if this is exactly your problem, but to me (after skimming your poste) that your Bare Metal Machine is not actually receiving a PXE advert. Which might be caused by your DHCP not knowing where to direct that advert from (metaphor: Person A is asks the mailman if person B sent him a letter, mailman says "no" because mailman doesn't know who person B is, sorry , that is a terrible metaphor, but I tried). On my setup, I think I also have option 67 set to "\smsboot\x64\pxeboot.com" which is the path to the boot image on the PXE Service Point.

hi IlikeMinis,

the problem was resolved but to be honest it's so long ago (last October) that I cannot recall the fix, however the PXE problems prompted me to create the following post which I update occaisonally with info when I see it

Troubleshooting WinPE/PXE problems > http://www.windows-noob.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=546

cheers

June 28th, 2009 1:31pm

Ok we resolved the problem, although I still can't understand why it worked in some instances and not in others.

The http 503 and the 0x8004005 errors in the smsts.log suggested that there was possibly a permissions problem between the management point and the site database. We also found that we were unable to do an iisreset, indicating that there might be a problem with our IIS installation. The IIS logs were clean and all other SCCM functions (Software Distribution and Hardware and Software Inventory) continued to work.

Our solution to this problem was to reinstall the management point on a clean installation of IIS. OSD is now working at all of our sites.

Yet the issue persists.After working my way through countless issues with SCCM, this seems to be the only obstacle in my way. Here is the situation:
1. I boot the bare metal client system to PXE and the boot image loads
2. The SCCM status messages appear "Windows is starting up..." and then "Preparing Network Connections..."
3. The client machine hangs for a minute or so, then reboots."

Yesterday I got the same issue. However, two days ago I deployed a few bare metal machines with this infrastructure. One day next all is broken over night.
I really searched the internet for a solution. Now I found this thread and here is no solution, too. I had to rebuild the SCCM Server.
Now its running fine but I am still waiting until it's broken again. All logs was clean.

Is anyone from Microsoft out therewho can write a step-by-step solution? Now we are not sure to upgrade from SMS because SMS works fine.

Once more: Is it normal that WDS Servicehas to be restarted very often that thePXE-Boot works? WDS fails to start every server reboot?
Anyidea?

regarding your WDS problem, have you tried to set the WDS service startup type to Automatic (Delayed Start) , perhaps your server is too busy to be able to start the service and on an overloaded server this can help

check your Site Status logs for any components that are reporting errors, if there are errors you'll need to investigate them to determine what is failing and wh

Hi! First of all: The guides on windows-noob.com are perfect. I love them! Thank you very much. I am really a fan of your site!

How do I start a service with delay on W2k3 Server? I really checked my logs but nothing special. I am supporting SMS 2003 for
5 years now but I never had so much troubles like with SCCM. A 90 seconds delay (KB955955) here, a not starting WDS Service there,
my Office 2003 installation with mst-file confioguration do not work because of the computer account used during installation, a very complicated
solution with unknown computers support,alarge but not really a documentation with solutionsand many more ....

However, the Software Update solution is much better than ITMU in SMS 2003! I love it!

What is to do if we use SCCM in production and the OSD feature gets broken like in lab yesterday? We deploy four hundred software packages so
we are not able to recreate SCCM because of this failure. Wesupport 8000 workstation withOSD. This has to work fine but it doesn't.

Hi! First of all: The guides on windows-noob.com are perfect. I love them! Thank you very much. I am really a fan of your site!

thanks for the kind words above :)

ah you are running server 2003, sorry this option is in server 2008, however you can force the service to only start after another service (or services) have started (dependancies)

it's not hard to do, open regedit, browse to hklm/system/currentcontrolset/services/servicename and add a key called DependOnService

then add the service name as a value that it depends on......... this would probably achieve the same effect if you know which service its waiting for, to find out why your WDS service is not starting you must refer to Windows Event Viewer,

SCCM is different to SMS 2003, in many ways, and yes it get's some 'getting used to' but once you have made the change you'll not want to go back

A 90 seconds delay (KB955955) here, a not starting WDS Service there, my Office 2003 installation with mst-file confioguration do not work because of the computer account used during installation, a very complicated solution with unknown computers support,alarge but not really a documentation with solutionsand many more ....
- There's a fix for that 90s delay and you even mentioned the corresponding kb article. So that's not a big deal.
- WDS: that's external to ConfigMgr. So you have to blame the underlying OS / service. Niall mentioned a workaround.
- Unknown computer support? That's one of the easier parts of OSD: see http://blogs.msdn.com/steverac/archive/2008/09/21/unknown-computers-in-sccm-2007-r2-overview.aspxand http://blogs.msdn.com/steverac/archive/2008/09/21/unknown-computers-in-sccm-2007-r2-how-it-works.aspx
- the ConfigMgr docs are great in my eyes. It's a very complex product and when it comes to OSD it even gets more complicated because of many techniques involved: PXE, DHCP, OS deployment (unattended or wim stuff), WinPE, drivers and so on. Niall's step by step guides are something to start with, but I wouldn't call them"documentation". They show one possibility to get a problem solved in a step by step manner (Niall, don't get me wrong here. You really did a great job putting all those things together. That really helps the community to get started). Those procedures are not a one fits all solution. Each environment is unique and ConfigMgr is flexible enough to handle those different requirements.

Didihai: what problem are you talking about? WinPe restarting after it just booted?

Hallo,

kindly excuse my unprofessional posting. Very emotional. I am sorry.

The initial problem of Glenn and me is that

1. I boot the bare metal client system to PXE and the boot image loads
2. The SCCM status messages appear "Windows is starting up..." and then "Preparing Network Connections..."
3. The client machine hangs for a minute or so, then reboots."

The Task Sequences do not start and the log files are clean. So I had to rebuild the SCCM Server to get this working.
Now this is not so fatally because its only lab but if this happens in production?

Do you know this problem?
July 16th, 2009 10:08am

you must look at the SMSTS.log file in order to understand why WinPE is rebooting here,

sometimes it will reboot because of no network drivers loaded
sometimes it will reboot because of missing dependancies
sometimes it will reboot because the boot.wim file is the wrong architecture (x64 instead of x86)

but without looking at the log file you will never know

to learn how to get, read and interpret the log file see this post

you can always post the failure message from SMSTS.LOG here and we can assist

I really read the SMSTS.LOG file before I recreated SCCM from scratch but this log file was very short without errors.
I recreated the task sequence imported from MDT, recreated the computer association, recreated the drivers andrecreated all the deployment packages and WinPE boot environment... without success.

Now it works but if the problem returns I will post the SMSTS.log.

Thanks to have patience with me.

Greetings:

I know this message is a few months old, but I recently solved this problem.  I found that the CCMEXEC service wasn't running on my SCCM box.  Once I started it manually, everything worked fine.  While the service wasn't running I experienced the exact same symptoms as well as the error messages that were mentioned in the first post.

I hope this helps someone who is searching.

In my Case when I got this error,  the client was able to PXE boot and run WINPE environment, once the client had initialised and it queried the SCCM server for the Task Sequence (s) the client generated the Failed to get Client Idenity error.  It turns out the client was unable to post back information to the SCCM Managment Point and the SCCM server was not listening correctly. The extract from the SMSTS log below doesnt really indicate that this is happening though:

When I then looked at the System Status for the Management Point it showed an IIS 500 error and that it wasnt able to process incoming data.  A reboot of the SCCM server cleared down the IIS error and all is functioning now as expected.

It appears to be a DNS issue in my home system lab setup.  I removed specifying the FQDN for the ConfigMgr site system properties and imaging took off.  I know specifying an FQDN is necessary for native mode, but evidently it isn't in my mixed mode environment.  I haven't figured out what the issue is with my DNS not delivering the FQDN to the pxe client, but removing the FQDN setting for the site system properties fixed my issue.

performed iisreset and after that i began seeing response 200 from IIS and everything is back to normal,

coincidently it happened after applying kb 976073 to PXE service point which followed by a restart to the server .

It ending up being the client date was a month behind, therefore the certificate was invalid as the client date was a month before the certificate valid date range even started! Just needed to update the client date to be correct.

I had the same error, when using an old and probably incorrect boot medium.

I'd created a bootable ISO from the Tasksequence before, and mounted it in my Hyper-V client to have a quicker boot than using PXE.
Due to some initial errors I reinstalled the SCCM server, but did not recreate this boot media.  The error happened when I booted using the old and not yet updated ISO files. When I boot the client from PXE it uses the newly created bootmedia, that worked.  Root cause would then have been the newly created self-signed certificate on the MP, that differs from the one in the old boot files..

I has the same issue, and the solution was really simple.

The problem was in the client computer, that has wrong Time and Date in BIOS.
Simply adjust date and time to actual time, and the deployment works perfectly.

Lo escribo en espaol, por si le sirve a alguien, o por si lo que escribi en ingls est demasiado mal.

Yo tuve el mismo problema, y la solucin fue bastante simple.
El problema era que la fecha y la hora del cliente estaban mal, adelantadas respecto la hora del servidor.
Entre al BIOS Setup de la PC, correg la fecha y la hora, y asunto solucionado, el deployment funcion de maravillas.

Dead on right!  As many others have said fixing the date and time in the BIOS of the Client resolved the issue.  Thanks Franco!

I had two identical Dell Venue 11 Pro Tablets, one OSD would work properly, the other would not... I was like wtf! After flashing BIOS, confirming hardware was identical, I looked at the smsts.log file and led me to this forum. Thanks, what a stupid error! Glad it was an easy fix. This was using SCCM 2012 R2 SP1.

- Cheers
