Seen this error message appear a few times during OSD.
- Is the device in a SCCM Collection that has a valid Task Sequence available?
- Check your boundaries – is the device within a configured boundary?
- Is this device an existing SCCM client that is being rebuilt using the same Task Sequence? If so delete the existing object from SCCM using the Admin Console.
- Has the device existed in SCCM but you do not know the original name? Look in the smsts.log – you will see the SMSBIOS GUID for the device that can then be searched for in the Admin Console and then deleted.
- If it is an existing device that has never run the Task Sequence, clear Required PXE deployments using the device context menu in the SCCM Admin Console.
