Deployment using WDS, monitoring using wdsTptMgmt API - not all connected clients listed

Hi all,

Have been seeking a post by anoyne who may have reported a similar issue but I've been unable to find one.

We use WDS on Windows Server 2008 R2 to deploy a variety of images (some Windows Server 2008 R2, some Windows 7) via multicast. We also have a script which uses the the wdsTptMgmt API to poll for details of connected clients and output the information to a .CSV file, which is then used to populate a GUI component in our monitoring application.

On a number of occasions, we've seen the wdsTptMgmt API calls appear to return an incomplete set of connected clients; we might have, for instance, 7 clients downloading images at once, and initially the API calls will  return details for all 7, but a few minutes in we'll only be getting details of 6; meanwhile all 7 will in fact be happily downloading the image, and complete successfully.

I was wondering if anyone else had encontered a similar issue, or if anyone could suggest reasons why the API might stop returning details of a connected client?
