OSD Task Sequence deployments.

In our case, the local MP is acting as a DP. We noticed that when the MP was associated with the remote site Boundary Group, OSD content download during TS became very slow.

After removing the MP association from the remote site Boundary Group, while keeping only the remote DP assigned, the Task Sequence started working normally, and download performance improved significantly.

What makes this confusing is that Microsoft documentation and recent ConfigMgr changes seem to recommend adding MPs to Boundary Groups.

So now it’s unclear whether this is:

• expected behavior,
• a bug/regression,
• or related specifically to scenarios where the MP is also hosting the DP role.

Interested to know if others experienced the same thing during OSD.
