NOTE: All the following references to OEMs do not include Dell. Issue • The OEM add-ons for system hardware configuration use of preconfigured templates to arrange steps in the task sequence in a proper order. When you add a new OEM step into a task sequence, it first checks to see if the task sequence already has any OEM steps in it. If there are no steps, it prompts you for automatic configuration of the steps.
