Windows Build Plan error: Diskpart failed to create system drive partition
Possible cause and resolutionSymptom
This error is caused when a target server disk number used
with diskpart is invalid.
A Windows OS Build Plan fails at the Create Windows
System Drive step with exit code 87: failed to create
system drive partition.
1. The SystemDiskNumber custom attribute is invalid.
• The SystemDiskNumber custom attribute used with
diskpart might be invalid for the target server. The
SystemDiskNumber custom attribute is either
customer-defined or automatically assigned for
ProLiant Gen8 servers during a Windows OS Build
Plan deployment. It is possible SystemDiskNumber
was previously defined from a previous Build Plan
execution and is still defined. Remove the server
SystemDiskNumber custom attribute, which will allow
the Windows Build Plan to determine the valid disk
number.
2. You have an inappropriate drive.
• Check to see if the target server has an iLO virtual
drive attached, a USB key connected to it, or some
other drive not appropriate for installations. Remove
any such drive and rerun the OS Build Plan.
3. There are undefined RAID drives.
• This failure can also occur if there is no disk or if there
are no logical drives defined on your RAID array.
