Turning on logging for the PXEFilter though WDS

Thanks to Mike Baiano for this info.

I have been trying to get the PXEFilter to work but have been unable to get it to work and have not been able to trace any logs for troubleshooting the problem untill now.

In order to see the PXEfilter log you will need to turn on logging in WDS. here is how to do it

Trace logsTo obtain trace information, you must enable tracing in the Windows Deployment Services server component. To do this, set the following registry entry: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Tracing\WDSServer

Name: EnableFileTracing
Value type: REG_DWORD
Value data: 1

 

After you set this registry entry, trace information for the Windows Deployment Services server component is logged in the following file:

 

%windir%\Tracing\wdsserver.log

Hope this helps someone.

I'm sill having an issue with the script but atleast now i know it is running Smile
