Hi there
Testing SCCM 2012 OSD against a Surface Pro 4, not enjoying it too much.
The tablet does successfully pxe boot, however immediately after seeing the 'Preparing network connections' popup there is a restart.
Using a command prompt to block the restart, I can see the network is not available in time i.e. in the smsts.log there is this line: "Surface Pro ethernet adapter ip address is 0.0.0.0".
Within perhaps 10 seconds after seeing the 'Preparing network connections' popup disappear, the device gets an ip address.
I am testing using both the official Microsoft Surface Pro ethernet adapter and Surface Pro dock.
These are the official Microsoft devices - and plainly these are the problem, namely that connecting an ethernet cable to a Surface Pro via one of these devices is not the same as connecting an ethernet cable directly to a pc (obviously).
I tried a pre-start command, namely a vbs script with a 20 second pause, this made no difference.
I have read that SCCM OSD is possible with Surface Pro 4's, so presumably something can be done to get past this.
Hoping someone can advise.
Best regards
John
