I feel I'm going crazy. I've done this a million times before and now its no longer working.



Problem:
I'm trying to update the wim with the new SCCM Client (have to due to it being a nested WIM File within a server deployment) along with updating the Windows Updates on it.



I have an Unattend.xml file which includes server name and IP address and the below process works using one of our existing WIM's.



  1. Create the VHDX from the WIM:

Convert-WindowsImage -SourcePath "E:pathVMWIM.wim" -Size 100GB -DiskType Dynamic -VHDFormat VHDX -VHDPartitionStyle GPT -VHDPath "E:pathVMWIM.vhdx" 


  1. Mount VHDX :

 Mount-WindowsImage -ImagePath "E:pathVMWIM.vhdx" -Path E:pathMount -Index 1


  1. Create WIM:

 New-WindowsImage -CapturePath E:TempVHDMount -Name VMWIM -ImagePath E:TempVHDVMWIMv3.4.wim -Description "Server 2012 R2 VMWIM" -Verify


  1. Create VM from above WIM:

 C:pathConvert-WindowsImage.ps1 -WIM C:pathVMWIM.wim -Size 100GB -DiskType Dynamic -VHDFormat VHDX -VHDPartitionStyle GPT -Unattend C:unattend.xml -VHD D:pathvmvhd.vhdx


When I do the above the Unattend.xml and Specialize Settings (Name, IP, DNS, WINS) are all applied.



If I were to make changes to the VHDX Created in Step 1, change SCCM Client, run Windows Updates, then I'd run a sysprep with shutdown and carry on with step 2. Once I got to Step 4 the vhdx file is created and windows boots, but the specialize section is ignored (Name, IP, DNS, WINS). Even though I can see the unattend.xml has been copied to c:unattend.xml and c:windowspantherunattend.xml (using exactly the same unattend file)



What am I doing wrong?
