Everything after OOBE needs the employee to log in, which happens off the
PXE network, so the floor waited forever at step 3 of 5. Now 3 steps:
WinPE, Windows setup installing apps, ready at OOBE (succeeded).
- both unattends: specialize Order 49 posts step 3 as succeeded
(Path 182 chars; lint clean). Only that line changed.
- Send-ImagingStage.ps1: StageTotal 3; steps above the total (the old
first-logon steps 4 and 5 still in the unattends) are logged and not
posted, so they cannot reopen a finished build
- winpe-status-push.ps1: total 3 for gea-standard / gea-engineer
- floor tile step 3: "Ready at OOBE"
Tested in the win11 VM against the test server: steps 2 and 3 post,
step 3 shows succeeded, step 4 is skipped. Not deployed: the unattends
go out only through scripts/deploy-unattend.sh.
- winpe-status-push.ps1: check-bios.cmd stages the firmware update before
the imaging menu, but startnet's 'BIOS firmware update' push only comes
at the end of WinPE, so builds showed a plain 'Applying image' for the
whole apply. The first push now reports the staged update when
X:\bios-fired.flag exists, and the floor shows 'Applying image - BIOS
update staged' (do not power off during the next reboot). Also: CIM
fallback for the serial where wmic is missing, and standard/engineer
always report 5 steps.
- Network pill: cdc_ncm (e.g. the WisdPI RTL8157 5G adapter) keeps link
speed in a 32-bit bits/s field, so 5 Gb/s reads 705 Mb/s; show the real
speed with a note.
Tested in the win11 VM (with and without the BIOS flag, and the late
startnet push).
The floor's 8 stages are the shopfloor pipeline, and only shopfloor-setup
reports after WinPE, so every gea-standard / gea-engineer build sat at
1/8 forever with no type.
- winpe-status-push.ps1 reads the image from the Z: share mapping when no
PCTYPE is set and reports those builds as 5 steps.
- Send-ImagingStage.ps1 (deployed to _shared\Applications\extra\pxe-status)
posts steps 2-5 from the unattend: start and end of specialize, first
logon, and setup complete (succeeded). It is copied to
C:\ProgramData\PxeStatus first, because the bulk-enrollment task deletes
C:\Deploy before first logon. Best-effort: always exits 0.
- Floor rows use Standard/Engineer labels and show the image as the kind.
Tested as SYSTEM in the win11 VM (PowerShell 5.1): the exact unattend
command line, stages 3-5 against a test server, a dead port (exit 0), and
the image regex.
The hardware report went out from winpe-status-push.ps1 on the
enrollment share (Y:), but startnet.cmd never maps Y: on the
gea-standard / gea-engineer path (choices 1/2 go purpose -> tenant ->
enroll_staged), so those builds never reported. The same gap means
neither the status push nor preflight.ps1's driver check has ever run
for standard/engineer images.
The BIOS share is mapped by every WinPE boot before the menu, and
check-bios.cmd lives on it, so it now calls hardware-report.ps1 from
the same folder (best effort, output discarded). winpe-status-push.ps1
goes back to status only, so shopfloor bays are not counted twice. The
playbook deploys hardware-report.ps1 with the other BIOS files.
WinPE now reports each machine's WMI model, manufacturer, Dell system
SKU and BIOS version to /hardware/seen (winpe-status-push.ps1, best
effort, wmic only). The webapp records every model seen and checks it
against what the server has:
- each image's Deploy/Control/HardwareDriver.json, matched exactly as
PESetup's GetDriverByModel does (as reimplemented in
lint-driver-catalogue.py), plus whether the pack's zip is on disk;
- the WinPE BIOS manifest (substring match like check-bios.cmd).
/hardware lists every model with per-image driver status and BIOS
status. A model missing a Win11 pack or a BIOS entry becomes item 5 on
the Technician To-Do (and the banner count) until the pack/BIOS is added
or it is dismissed. Virtual machines are ignored.
Also deploys the repo winpe-status-push.ps1 over the live copy, which
predated the -CurrentStage/-StageIndex parameters startnet.cmd passes
for the BIOS-flash stage, so that status post was failing.
winpe-status-push.ps1 now accepts -CurrentStage / -StageIndex
params so callers can override the default "WinPE: PESetup / WIM
apply" string. Backwards compatible.
startnet.cmd: after the existing initial WinPE status push,
inspect $BIOS_STATUS for the "->" marker that check-bios.cmd
writes when an update was actually applied or staged. If present,
fire a second idx=1 push with stage="WinPE: BIOS firmware update -
<status>". No-op for clean "up to date" / "no update in catalog"
runs.
imaging.html: at stage_idx=1 with "bios" in current_stage, swap
friendly label to "Updating BIOS firmware" with a do-NOT-power-off
hint. Bays without firmware updates show the default "Booting from
PXE" label as before.
boot.wim startnet.cmd updated via wimupdate so live PXE clients
pick it up at next boot.

Single-site bay-stuck issue at WJ: GE Intune Report IP script filters
Get-NetIPAddress on StartsWith("10.") and posts everything matching
to the GE Tines webhook. Bays at WJ get the PXE LAN 10.9.100.x IP
captured and reported -> GE backend tags bays as on a non-corp 10.x
subnet -> dynamic group eligibility for SFLD policy never matches.
Other GE sites work because their PXE LANs aren't on 10.x at all.
Renumber PXE LAN to RFC1918 172.16.9.0/24 so the GE filter naturally
skips wired PXE addresses without any disable-NIC dance.
Server-side already in flight (netplan dual-bound, dnsmasq scope +
boot URL repointed, blancco preferences + grub.cfg + iPXE GetPxeScript
all sed'd to 172.16.9.1). This commit is the playbook / scripts /
docs side: 109 hits across 35 files sed'd in one shot.
After this lands + boot.wim is rebuilt + bays renumber off DHCP,
the 10.9.100.1 binding will be dropped from netplan as the final
cleanup step.

PowerShell parses $var: as scope-namespaced syntax (e.g. $env:NAME,
$global:foo). The line
Log "server=$PxeServer:$Port pctype=$PCType"
errored at line 26 col 13 - parser interpreted $PxeServer: as a scope
prefix and bailed. Fix: use ${PxeServer}:${Port} so the colon is
literal. The $uri line below already had the right form.

The inline one-liner in startnet.cmd called Get-NetAdapter, which is
not available in WinPE's stripped PowerShell (no NetTCPIP module).
Errors silently swallowed by the surrounding try/catch - POST never
fired, dashboard never showed bays during the WIM-apply phase.
Externalize to a standalone .ps1 on the enrollment share:
* Uses wmic (always present in WinPE 10+) for both serial AND mac
instead of Get-CimInstance / Get-NetAdapter.
* Logs every step to X:\Windows\Temp\winpe-status-push.log so a
future "POST didn't fire" debug is one file read away.
* startnet.cmd now just runs powershell -File Y:\scripts\winpe-status-
push.ps1. Future edits to the push logic do NOT require a boot.wim
rebuild; just edit the .ps1 on the share.
Mirror the existing pattern for run-enrollment.ps1 / wait-for-internet.ps1
/ migrate-to-wifi.ps1 (all already at /srv/samba/enrollment/scripts/).
Add the new file to the playbook's enrollment-scripts copy loop.
