Re: My custom actions in the state restore phase are not working? Help

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance

If this is a New Computer (bare metal) install you need to either set
MP and SiteCode in customsettings.ini (if you are using ZTI) or in a
script in the pre-install phase.

If you are using ZTI, add the OSDMP,OSDSITECODE variables to
OSDVariableKeys and set the values in the [Default]

OSDMP=SMSSERVERNAME:80
OSDSITECODE=XXX

If you are using plain vanilla OSD, create a vbscript with the
following info and add it to the preinstall phase

Set osd = CreateObject("OSD.Environment")
osd("OSDMP") = "SMSSERVERNAME:80"
osd("OSDSITECODE") = "XXX"
