GSS 3.x - While imaging using USB at the end of Ghosting process might receive Internal error 3600

Products

• Ghost Solution Suite

Issue/Introduction

Internal Inconsistency error (36000) might pop-up from Ghost UI when bootable USB removed during image save/restore.

Environment

GSS 3.x with any WinPE preboot and Ghost engine version

Cause

Ghost engine would enumerate volumes (drives) at start and at the end of the process. And if the amount of volumes differs it would report this inconsistency.

 

Resolution

It's not recommended to unplug any devices from machine being imaged. As even while the USB booted data being mounted to ramdisk, something might still have pointers to the usb device itself. And it's generally not suggested to perform any changes during Imaging to not interfere with the process.
