No task sequence found for new devicesĪbove mentioned example was pretty much easy to understand as it was related to existing device which needs to be removed from SCCM database. Now when you try pxe boot or load boot media, you will be able to see list of task sequence. Open Configuration Manager console and navigate to \Assets and Compliance\Overview\Devices, enable the column “MAC address” and search for mac address we saw in smsts.log. Search for phrase “Mac Address”, once found make a note of this. We can see the error in log file: No assigned task sequence. If you are having trouble which device to delete, find the mac address of the device in smsts.log when you see error.Ĭmtrace.exe x:\windows\temp\smstslog\smsts.log

To resolve the problem, delete the existing system from SCCM. Usually, task sequence is targeted to Unknown Computers, as the device already exist in SCCM database, you won’t be able to see list of task sequence targeted to All Unknown Computers collection. This is perfectly ok as the device is already there in SCCM database and the status is known to SCCM. In a scenario where you wanted to rebuild an existing system, once the boot image is loaded either through boot media or PXE boot, you will get error: Failed to Run Task Sequence Error No task sequence found for existing devices Sometimes we see this error for old devices and sometimes for new devices. This is a very common error we see while trying to initiate the SCCM task sequence. In this post I will be discussing on how to fix the issue “no task sequence found” for new devices.
