PXE::MP_ReportStatus failed; 0x80070490
E Provider failed to process message.
Element not found. (Error: 80070490; Source: Windows)

Answer 1

Hi,

Thanks for posting in Microsoft Q&A forum.

The error 0x80072f8f means "A security error occurred" and the 0x80070490 means "Element not found". Per my experience, this issue may be related to PKI certs or CRL. Please check the followings:

1, Do you add valid PKI certs to the properties of the PXE-enabled DPs?

2, Is the CRL available on an accessible CDP to the MP as well as the PXE-booted systems?

3, Is the CRL available via an HTTP URL from the PXE-booted systems?

Best regards,
Simon

Hi,

Thanks for your reply.

We could uncheck the the option "Clients check the CRL for site systems" in your site properties to disable client CRL checking to have a try. As shown below:

About CRL checking, please refer to:
CHECKING YOUR CRL FOR REVOKED CERTIFICATES
Basic CRL checking with certutil

Best regards,
Simon
