Server and file path: (Required) Browse for the object, DNS name, or IP address of the server
where the image file is to be stored, then specify the path to the storage location. This must be a
server where ZENworks Linux Management is installed.
Images can take up a large amount of disk space. Make sure your imaging server has the disk
space available before selecting it.
Use compression: Compression is required. Choose one of the following:
Š
Balanced: Automatically balances compression between an average of the reimaging
speed and the available disk space for the image file.
Š
Optimize for speed: Optimizes the compression to allow for the fastest reimaging time.
Use this option if CPU speed is an issue.
Š Optimize for space: Optimizes the compression to minimize the image file’s size to
conserve disk space. This can cause reimaging to take longer.
Create an image bundle: If you select this option, another wizard page is displayed (see
Step 6 ) where you can configure the new bundle. Otherwise, the Summary is your next wizard
page (skip to Step 9 ).

Name: Specify a unique name for the bundle, because many other bundle names might be
listed in the same folder.
For more information, see
Appendix C, “Naming Conventions in the ZENworks Control
Center,” on page 605 .
Destination folder: Specify a folder where you want to list the new bundle. This is a location
in the ZENworks Control Center, not a file location on a device.
Description: Enter information to help you later recognize the purpose and scope of this image
bundle. For example, “Image taken after Linux OS was installed, but before GroupWise was
installed.”
