Problem:
When I’m building a machine that is using a Site that has multiple DPs how do I know which DP the machine is using whilst it’s building?
Resolution:
Open the “BDD.log” and do a search for “distribution share” which should display a line similar to:
SMS distribution Share = <fqdn_of_dp>
for example:
SMS distribution Share = CM072NDARY.FAQShop.COM
Other useful lines in this part of the log (just above) are:
- Checking network adapter: [00000000] Intel(R) 82567LM-3 Gigabit Network Connection
- MAC address = <MAC_address>
- IP Address = <IPv4_address_of_client>
- IP Address = <IPv6_address_of_client>
- Default Gateway = <def_gway_for_client>
- Property IPAddress001 is now = <IPv4_address_of_client>
- Property IPAddress002 is now = <IPv6_address_of_client>
- Property MacAddress001 is now = <MAC_address>
- Property DefaultGateway001 is now = <def_gway_for_client>
