Redeployed computers stuck for a long time before OSD finished

Question

I have deployed a new Windows 11 task sequence for some old Windows 10 computers. They finish the OS installation and then will be stuck on the "getting ready" page for a long time, about one hour. After that, I can log in the computers but find they have not joined our domain.

I already give the domain join account proper permissions; the same task sequence works well for bare computers. What's wrong here?

Answer 1

Hi,

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Q&A forum.

1,Please review the smsts.log, setupact.log and setuperr.log on the clients to see if there is any further information.

2,Do the redeployed computers use the same computer name? If yes, please delete the computer objects in AD and then try again. Per my experience, we cannot re-image a PC with the same name without deleting it.

Thanks for your time. Have a nice day!

Best regards,

Simon
