If you see a 'The requested target could not be found' alert

Learn why you might see this alert when you start a client Mac from a NetInstall image and how you can fix the issue.

You might see this alert when:

• The NetInstall image has the Automatic Erase Install option enabled.

• These two volume names don't match:

  • The volume name that was entered in System Image Utility when the image was created

  • The volume name that is on the client Mac

To fix the issue, update the volume name on the client so that it matches the volume name in System Image Utility.
