Intel Communities: Message List - Intel AMT Provisioning Error

Re: Intel AMT Provisioning Error

Hello All,

we have found the problem. It appears that the problems came's from nested groups. As soon as we allow permissions for the computer account of the configuration manager server instead of the group we had no problems to make the provisioning.
The other problem with the client, which we saw in BIOS was the following:

Machine Type: Invalid
System Serial Number: Invalid
UUID: FFFFFFFF-FFFF-FFFF-FFFF-FFFFFFFFFFFF

We had to update the BIOS with the boot CD image, downloaded from the manufacturer.

After that everything worked as expected.

With best Regards
Kin

Under "Site Database" -> "Site Management" -> <Site Code> -> "Site Settings" -> "Component Configuration" -> "Out of Band Management" -> "Provisioning Account" Tab, try adding a provisioning account of "admin" with a password of what ever you made the MEBx password.

Hello Johny,

thank you for you quick response. I have already set up this account, as you already mention i should change the default password in order to input the thumbprint of the certificate. I tried with different passwords, also to reinstall the patch KB94284, but that didn't help me in order to have successfull provisioning. I am wondering if the username for the MEBx is not the default one "admin", how can i see it ? Is there any possibilities for that.

Thanks in advance for you reply

Welcome to the forums and the road to vPro.

From the logs it looks like your One Time Password is not set properly in the OOB Management Component Config. Since

you are using a self singed cert, you need to enter the hash for it in the MEBx which you are doing correctly. By default, when

you first log into the MEBx, the password is admin. You then must change that password after you connect.

What you need to do is make note of that password and then set it up in the Out Of Band Management.

To do this, navigate to Site Database>Site Management>%Site Name%>Site Settings>Component Configuration.

When you go to that node, right click on Out of Band Management, click Properties.

You will then see Provisioning Settings section in that dialog box. I am going to assume that everything else is set up properly.

Where you see MEBx Account: it should read "admin" in the box.

You need to click "Set..." and enter the password that you changed the MEBx PW when you entered your cert hash.

Let me know if this helps.

We are using internal CA and have entered manually the thumbprint of our Root Test CA. We have tried with different passwords and we are sure that they are the same on both place SCCM and MEBx, but when we are trying to provision the machine we receive the following message:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We have posted this error and on the following MS forum:

http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/configmgrgeneral/thread/46a5cf28-0891-4cf7-a895-c8cf46aaa28c

According to discussions there we have prepared a DHCP server with options 6 and 15 and have checked the DNS server for the forward (A) and reverse (PTR) DNS records for the client and ConfigMgr site server. The certificate templates we have prepared according to the following MS guide: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc161804.aspx

So what we are doing wrong. Can anyone help us in order to solve this problem.

Thanks in advance.
