Both entry files described the wrong scope. Checking the live share mirror:
Backup-PartMarker.ps1 belongs in common\scripts, not the partmarker scope,
because it imports ..\lib\TelesisMarker.psm1 and ..\lib\ShopdbBackupClient.psm1
and those live in common\lib. Backup-NtlarsSettings.ps1 sits there for the same
reason, and its entry already lists gea-shopfloor-partmarker in PCTypes -
scoping is by PCTypes, not by which directory the entry lives in. As written it
would have failed its imports on the first cycle.
eMxInfo healing is a NEW entry in the partmarker scope rather than a PCTypes
edit: those entries live in the collections and nocollections scopes, which a
marker bay never evaluates. The site already duplicates the config and the cmd
per scope, so markers follow that pattern - at the cost of the yearly rotation
now touching three copies, which the entry says out loud.
The cmd template also carried a stale source path. The deployed cmd reads
..\configs\eMxInfo.txt; the repo template still said the file sat beside it,
which would have exited 1 on every run.
The eMxInfo entry on the share is scoped to collections and nocollections, so
a marker bay never heals. Marker bays run eDNC as well - 01-eDNC.ps1 installs
it before the Mark MSI - so the same vendor installer clobbers the same file
there, with nothing to restore it.
The fix is a scoping change rather than a new mechanism: add the marker PCType
to the existing entry. The paths it already writes are the right ones, because
mxTransactionDll.dll in the Mark overlay reads \Dnc\Server Files\eMxInfo.txt -
the Mark suite uses the DNC install, not its own directory.
The cmd variant additionally refreshes the copy that imaging drops into the
Mark directory. Nothing reads that path, so it is cosmetic; it is there so a
healed bay and a freshly imaged one are identical, rather than differing in a
way that costs somebody an afternoon later.
Scoped to gea-shopfloor-partmarker so it reaches marker bays only. The script
checks the DNC\Mark registry itself as well, so a mis-scoped entry exits
quietly on an ordinary PC rather than erroring every five minutes.
The entry records what the share layout has to provide, because the script
resolves its two modules relative to its own location and one of them,
ShopdbBackupClient.psm1, is shared with the NTLARS backup and has changed. It
also records the schedule and the settings a bay needs, since all three are
places where a deployment can look successful and quietly do nothing.
Also counts a failed capture as a missed backup, not just a busy port. Port
contention resolves itself; a controller that will not answer does not, and
the two are worth telling apart in the count that reaches ShopDB.
Replace per-type eDNC_6-4-5.msi with eDNC-6.4.7.msi (ProductVersion
6.4.7.0) in collections, nocollections, heattreat, and partmarker.
01-eDNC.ps1 already prefers the single shared installer at
C:\PreInstall\installers\dnc (6.4.7); aligning the per-type fallback
means an empty shared dir can no longer install a stale 6.4.5. All DNC
types now resolve to 6.4.7 on either path.

01-eDNC.ps1 (all 4 DNC types) now installs eDNC from the shared pre-install copy
staged by startnet.cmd to C:\PreInstall\installers\dnc - one source of truth
(currently 6.4.7) instead of a per-type bundled msi. Falls back to the per-type
eDNC\ folder when the shared copy is absent (older images). eMxInfo.txt, the
x86->64 mirror, and Site/MachineNo registry steps are unchanged.

New gea-shopfloor-partmarker type (startnet menu option 10) and fill the
gea-shopfloor-heattreat stub. Both follow the collections eDNC pattern:
01-eDNC.ps1 installs DNC, then a 02-Setup script installs the vendor MSI.
Part Marker (02-Setup-PartMarker.ps1):
- msiexec Mark-6.2.1.msi /qn /norestart LAUNCHNTLARS=false (the LaunchNtlars
custom action otherwise fires under /qn and launches NTLARS mid-install,
same as eDNC).
- After install: import WJPRT.reg rewritten to WOW6432Node (reg import does
not honor /reg:32; DNC is 32-bit and reads the redirected hive), then copy
the Mark overlay + eMxInfo.txt into C:\Program Files (x86)\Mark.
HeatTreat (02-Setup-HeatTreat.ps1):
- msiexec HeatTreat_6.2.1.msi /qn /norestart LAUNCHNTLARS=false. Existing
09-Setup-Heattreat.ps1 (OpenText) still runs after. Optional .reg/file
copy left as a marked TODO pending confirmation.
Both MSIs decompiled: WiX/GE Aviation, no forced reboot, only LaunchCondition
is NOT NEWERVERSIONDETECTED. utilpassword.txt is gitignored (secret, deployed
via the enrollment share from the working tree).
