New site-config.json file at C:\Enrollment\ (staged by startnet.cmd from
the enrollment share) contains all West Jefferson-specific values that were
previously hardcoded across 7 scripts. To deploy at a different GE site,
clone site-config.json and change the values - scripts need zero changes.
Config schema (v1.0):
siteName / siteNameCompact - UDC/eDNC site args
urls{} - Edge startup tab fallback URLs
edgeStartupTabs[] - ordered tab list with .url file basenames
opentext{} - excluded .hep profiles and .lnk shortcuts
startupItems[] - Configure-PC toggle list (exe/existing/url)
taskbarPins[] - 07-TaskbarLayout pin order with lnk paths
desktopApps[] - 06-OrganizeDesktop Phase 2 app list
Every script uses the same inline Get-SiteConfig helper that reads the
JSON and returns $null if missing/corrupt. All consumers fall back to the
current hardcoded West Jefferson defaults when $siteConfig is null, so
PXE servers without a site-config.json continue working identically.
Scripts updated:
06-OrganizeDesktop.ps1 - desktopApps array from config
07-TaskbarLayout.ps1 - pinSpec array from config
08-EdgeDefaultBrowser.ps1 - startup tab loop from config
Configure-PC.ps1 - startup items + site name from config
Check-MachineNumber.ps1 - site name from config
Set-MachineNumber.ps1 - site name from config
01-eDNC.ps1 - siteName + siteNameCompact from config
startnet.cmd - copies site-config.json from enrollment share

Replace em-dash characters with plain hyphens across the 5 shopfloor
setup scripts (avoids cp1252 mojibake in .bat files and keeps the
PowerShell sources consistent). Also adds [Parameter(Position=1)] to
Write-PreInstallLog so the Level argument can be passed positionally.

Adds a local-install pipeline so Standard shopfloor PCs get Oracle, the
VC++ redists (2008-2022), and UDC installed during PXE imaging via Samba
instead of pulling ~215 MB per device from Azure blob over the corporate
WAN. Intune DSC then verifies (already-installed apps are skipped) and
the only Azure traffic on the happy path is ~11 KB of CustomScripts
wrapper polling.
New files:
- playbook/preinstall/preinstall.json — curated app list with PCTypes
filter and per-app detection rules. Install order puts VC++ 2008
LAST so its (formerly) reboot-triggering bootstrapper doesn't kill
the runner mid-loop. (2008 itself now uses extracted vc_red.msi with
REBOOT=ReallySuppress; the reorder is defense in depth.)
- playbook/shopfloor-setup/Shopfloor/00-PreInstall-MachineApps.ps1 —
the runner. Numbered 00- so it runs first in the baseline sequence.
Reads preinstall.json, filters by PCTYPE, polls for completion via
detection check (handles UDC's hung WPF process by killing it once
detection passes), uses synchronous WriteThrough logging that
survives hard reboots, preserves log history across runs.
- playbook/shopfloor-setup/Standard/Set-MachineNumber.{ps1,bat} — desktop
helper for SupportUser. Reads current UDC + eDNC machine numbers,
prompts via VB InputBox, validates digits-only, kills running UDC,
edits both C:\ProgramData\UDC\udc_settings.json and HKLM\…\GE Aircraft
Engines\DNC\General\MachineNo, relaunches UDC. Lets a tech assign a
real machine number to a mass-produced PC without admin/LAPS.
- playbook/sync-preinstall.sh — workstation helper to push installer
binaries from /home/camp/pxe-images/main/ to the live PXE Samba.
Changes:
- playbook/startnet.cmd + startnet-template.cmd — add xcopy to stage
preinstall bundle from Y:\preinstall\ to W:\PreInstall\ during the
WinPE imaging phase, gated on PCTYPE being set.
- playbook/pxe_server_setup.yml — create /srv/samba/enrollment/preinstall
+ installers/ directories and deploy preinstall.json there.
- playbook/shopfloor-setup/Run-ShopfloorSetup.ps1 — bump AutoLogonCount
to 99 at start (defense against any installer triggering an immediate
reboot mid-dispatcher; final line still resets to 2 on successful
completion). Copy Set-MachineNumber.{ps1,bat} to SupportUser desktop
on Standard PCs.
