See

“About Deployment site server components”

on page 24.

You can configure PXE by using the PXE server configuration policy. However,
changing this policy automatically affects PXE on all Deployment site servers in
your environment.

See

“About configuring a PXE server”

on page 36.

The preboot configuration policy also affects all Deployment site servers. After
each Deployment site server processes this policy, PXE offers the same bootstrap
menu and images to clients that boot to PXE. Each Deployment site server receives
this policy from Notification Server and implements the policy settings in a preboot
image. The site server creates new preboot images each time it receives new
preboot policy configurations. If you remove configurations from the preboot
policy, the site server removes the corresponding preboot images.

See

“Creating a PXE preboot image”

on page 33.

Do not try to clone the PXE policies. If you make changes to a cloned policy copy,
unknown consequences might occur. You cannot determine what version of the
policy Deployment Solution implemented.

You can manually add drivers for a preboot image.

See

“Adding a driver for a preboot configuration”

on page 34.

You can have more than one Deployment site server on a broadcast domain.
However, all Deployment site servers on this kind of domain should be assigned
to the same Symantec Management Platform site.

For example, if a client on this domain sends a PXE request, you cannot tell which
Deployment site server might respond. If the responding server doesn’t know
that a PXE reboot task exists, the server instructs the client to boot from the next
available device. Usually that device is the hard drive. All client computers with
a PXE reboot task must receive a PXE reboot image, no matter which site server
responds. All Deployment site servers that are assigned to the same Symantec
Management Platform site receive instructions to supply the corresponding
preboot image.

Installing Deployment site server components

You can install Deployment site server components to create task server handlers.
These components are installed on Symantec Management Platform site servers.
The components let the site servers manage the deployment-related tasks. The
tasks can be scheduled to run immediately or at a later specified time. This process
improves scalability.
