Deployment–PDT Workflow.xml 1004 now available

Release 1004 of the Workflow.xml file for the PowerShell Deployment Toolkit is now available on the TechNet Gallery here.

Release 1004 addresses the following issues:

SharePoint Foundation 2010 fails to install when PowerShell execution policy is set to restricted - PowerShell execution policy is now set to RemoteSigned as necessary for installation of SharePoint 2010 Foundation to complete for the Service Manager SharePoint Web Parts Server role.
SQL Server 2012 cluster completion fails when a product key is provided - the PID switch is now only provided for cluster preparation, not cluster completion.
SQL Server 2012 firewall rules are set with incorrect path – the path to the SQL executable is corrected.
Media validation fails on the System Center 2012 SP1 Management Packs – updated the size validation for the new version of the Windows Server MP.
Added integration to install Virtual Machine Manager console on Data Protection Manager server when both components are included in a deployment – to allow VM mobility uninterrupted data protection to be enabled.
Some PowerShell debug entries were incomplete.
Windows Server 2012 evaluation ISO download fails – the download has been removed from Workflow.xml, this now needs to be manually downloaded.

No other changes were made to PDT – existing *.ps1 and Variable.xml files can be used with the updated Workflow.xml.

You're right... not sure how that one got past me. I've updated the gallery posting with a new version that uses 76488. Thanks for pointing this out... I must get more sleep :-)

76488 is the file size I'm reading from the Microsoft.Windows.Server.Library.mp, the size in the new workflow is not working for me. I changed to 76488 and it validated. another quirk I've found is downloader defaults to %systemdrive%temp and installer assumes temp is on the same drive the installer script is run from.
