ImageX Sample Scripts
These are sample scripts that let Deployment Solution run ImageX imaging jobs from
the Deployment Console. These sample scripts include documentation that helps you
specify the name and location of the .WIM files.
You can use ImageX to capture several different images into a single .WIM file. You can
open the sample job and specify the location of the .WIM file with the correct passwords
and network locations. You can run the job from the server, which launches the ImageX
utility and captures an image of the target computer.
Print Folder Contents
You can print a list of the files and sub-folders within an image file, a volume (partition),
or a folder. Depending on the options you select, you can print a report that includes the
constituent files and subfolders and includes fields with the modified date, time, size,
and other attributes for each file.
When printing the contents of an image file, volume, or folder, click
OK
to view a Print
Preview of the report file. See
