SCCM Task Sequence restart failure after installation
4 posts · Closed
Hi,
When RAM Disk is installed on our machines with SCCM client, any SCCM Task Sequence which contains the step "Restart Computer" fails to run on these machines with the following errors:
Failed to get unique id (0x8000700EA)
Failed to convert Y: to unique volume id. Code : 0x800700ea
Failed to convert protected paths to unique ID. Error code 0x800700ea
Failed to reboot the system. Error 0x800700ea)
Failed to initialize a system reboot. More data is available. (Error: 800700EA; Source: Windows)
Fatal error is returned in check for reboot request of the action (Restart Computer). More data is available. (Error: 800700EA; Source: Windows)
An error (0x800700ea) is encountered in execution of the task sequence.
Any help please?
Thanks & Regards
Some applications do not work correctly with standalone volumes, which can be seen as I/O errors or simply the inability to access a RAM disk, which seems to be the case here.
Try enabling the Hard Disk Emulation option in the RAM disk settings. This option emulates a complete HDD with partitions indistinguishable from a real device. The downside is that there is an extra layer of emulation that can reduce the RAM disk performance by 5-10%.
Hi, it seems that this settings resolve the problem. Thanks
Hi, it seems that "Hard Disk Emulation" can cause an "unformatted" volume in some rare cases. Later, we discovered that the "Mount as Removable" option without "Hard Disk Emulation" works with the SCCM Task Sequence as well.
