Microsoft RIS

Afternoon Guys,

Does anybody know how many clients are supported simultaneously to be built from RIS at one time? At the moment we are limited to two machines, otherwise all machines will crash and not finish the install.

Should be a damn sight more than that I would say!

Yeah thats what I thought, ofc. The server was "upgraded" the other week, but it has not fixed the issue and we can't seem to locate the bottleneck.

What's the error or crash?

Something is not right.

Well RIS is not very good imo...but the few times i have used it i've had 10+ clients running at once.

Just to update people on this. thanks for the info given by all, we sorted the issues. It was down to the GUID assigned to clients on PXE boot. Up and running with 50+ clients at a time
