Avoiding the "Cannot Find File at Deployment Share" Error

Avoiding the

We recently learned a valuable lesson while creating images using Deployment Solution. We learned (the hard way) that the default mapped path for the SHARE is f:\servername\eXpress. Unfortunately, eXpress is not a folder name but it is a share name.

Hence, (lesson learned) whenever you make changes to the deployment share make sure that the share name is eXpress. If you don't, you'll need to make an the appropriate change to the task.

Hope this helps.

Don't forget that you will also have to edit your boot disk configurations to modify the default drive mappings created by boot disk creator and then re-create your PXE images with the new configuration if you are using PXE. It is a good idea to leave the default share name on your deployment server unless you like creating additional work for yourself.
