We have it where it works for some students but not others. i've done all 3 things you've done as well except mine are deployed differently (under user preferences rather than computers)

I'm looking to do some further testing on Win 11 with a view to capture a reference image (which I usually do on a Hyper-V test VM) on a WS 2019 host. With Win 10 it was dead easy but Win 11 won't install on a Hyper-V VM from the ISO due to the system requirements message kicking me out. Has anyone else managed it and if so, how did you get around it? Cheers in advance.

I have exactly the same problem although I completely uninstalled my V6 as the database was corrupted beyond repair so did a complete reinstall with a blank database. All my doors won’t connect to the new one despite being ticked in the config utility. They all say update pending. I’ve even dropped the power on a couple to see if it helps but it didn’t. Left it overnight and hoping when I go in tomorrow it’s worked otherwise I’m going to be doomed for Monday as all the doors are locked shut! Paxton didn’t know what the issue was when I rang them earlier. Did you have any joy?

SCCM is the way forward. Skip MDT and move from WDS to SCCM imo

Sorry, didn't read to the end. My suggestion is ruled out as it sounds like you've tried it

We were doing something similar but we found that it wouldn't work for us as the doors with Paxton on have green PTE buttons on the inside and readers on the outside only. We are going to have to put entrysign terminals on the entrance and exit points as well as the Paxton kit.... Its going to cost a fortune

From a practical perspective, you tend to see businesses with many bespoke applications (and some schools) reluctantly upgrade their operating systems, usually as they approach end of life. Server 2008 and Windows 7 only really disappeared when Microsoft forced peoples hands and the same will be true of server 2012 and 2016. Personally, I needed to rebuild the server infrastructure when I arrived here and I did so with 2019 to future proof us. Plus, someone's gotta take the plunge to identify any bugs. Luckily, server 2019 is based loosely on 2016, there isn't a great deal of difference and I've had no issues (touch wood!). From an exam perspective, Microsoft had MCSAs for 2012 and 2016 but they've changed their entire certification tracks last year and as a result there isn't one for server 2019. It's all rolled into the MS azure content allegedly so if you want to certify in 2019 content then that's the way to go.
