Details: UIUPrep now supports HTTP/s source locations, (including 1E Nomad discovered cache locations). Requirements: IP protocol access to desired source locations; Internet or Intranet. 1E Nomad Application ONLY: UIUPrep will automatically determine which mode to use (HTTP, HTTPS, or SMB) based on the 1E Nomad settings discovered in the WinPE registry. Please contact UIU Support for additional detail specific to this environment. GENERAL FEATURES: If the HTTP/s features are enabled you MUST have specified a database version using the requisite advanced switch. That switch is -driverudbname %filename%.udb. for example: “-driverudbname DB-24-09-10.udb” for the September 10th, 2024 release. This version must be available in any repository that a machine might chose from %UIURepository%\repository\*.udb The UIU Log location remains the same, however the logging format has changed. UIUPrep’s processes will now output in the standard CMTrace readable format, viewing with Notepad or other text editor is no longer recommended. Because of this, when viewing in CMTrace, there may now be additional information in the information section located at the bottom of the CMTrace window for any given logged item/line that is selected. Support has been included for WinPE version 10.1.26100.1 in order to support modern WADK versions.
Symptoms: UIUPrep encounters Error 67 -"ERROR_BAD_NET_NAME" when attempting to map to a discovered UIU Repository location. Resolution: Fixed a network path mapping error that can be caused under specific circumstances.
Symptoms: Issues with addressing/accessing multiple types of nomad provided locations (SMB, HTTP, and HTTPS) from multiple different end points at the same time in mixed environments or when nomad settings allow for multiple types of access to be available at the same time. Resolution: Repository Endpoint manager has been refactored to support multiple packages, including local, UNC, and HTTP/S. It handles testing/determination of validity, sorting, and UDB detection.
