SCCM 2012 USMT Side by Side not linking up

[RichMawdsley]

Afternoon All,

 

I'm in the process of setting up USMT on our systems and have it working fine in a WINPE TS.

 

However I'm now trying to capture 1 machine and restore it on separate one via separate Capture and Restore TS in Windows.

 

I firstly create the association in SCCM for the source and destination computers, stating all user accounts to be transferred.

 

Then run the Capture on PC 1 which works fine and I can see status in SCCM changes to 'In Progress'.

 

Then I run the Restore on PC 2 and it fails with the log file saying the store path is invalid.

 

I manually check and the store path its going to is '815A23998209*SNIP*', which does exist but its empty.. However I can see that the store path for the captured machine is actually '0B10473D648A0*SNIP*'.

 

So PC2 is looking for its own captured information and not realising I've made an association already and its not pointing to the correct PC1's captured info.

 

Hope that makes sense and someone can help as I've hit a brick wall! Any Ideas?

 

Thanks,

 

Rich

Figured out my own problem!

 

Incase anyone else has the issue:

 

I had the 'Request State Store' step in my Restore TS set as 'Capture state from the computer' as a pose to what it should be set as; 'Restore state from another computer'.

 

All works fine now!
