Change of Computer Name failed deploy

Thread needs solution

Everytime I deploy my laptop and change the computer name (Change name during manual Deployment guide thru), I get an error A Client "Laptop IP" does not respond. But if I leave it default name that was created during master image; it would deploy with no problem.

Hello, John!

Thank you for posting and your interest in Acronis Snap Deploy. We will do our best to help you with this. Could you provide additional info:
- screenshot of the error;
- operating system of the master image
- new computer name you wanted to assign to your laptop;
- did you try to change other deploy settings (network settings, etc?)

Thanks

John,

Do you use a system lockdown utility? I ran into a similar problem and it was because I did not unlock the system before we took/deployed the image. The problem being that the system would be in a locked state, and therefore the system changes (name, SID, etc.) would not be written or would be rolled back on the reboot.

I figure the problem. During making an image; my uncle told me that did I check mark on the box "MultiCast" which I should check on Uncast or something like that. MultiCast will also slow down network until arconis is logged off or service is disabled.
