About deploying an image
You can restore a computer and deploy a standard, Sysprep-enabled disk image
with the Deploy Image task. All of the existing data and applications on the client
are lost, and the computer is restored to the state of the standard image.
On Windows Server 2008, you might need to change the password on the client
computer before logging on for the first time after this task runs. Sysprep clears
the administrator password when it prepares a computer for imaging. You can
avoid having to manually change the password by creating a custom answer file.
The answer file should include a plain text password. You can then use the answer
file while you deploy your images on remote computers.
See
“About Sysprep imaging”
on page 32.
See
“Deployment image types”
on page 52.
See
“About deployment tasks and jobs”
on page 39.
If the computer has the Deployment plug-in installed, the computer configuration
is saved and restored after the image is applied. The computer configuration
contains the computer name, network settings, and domain.
See
“Creating and deploying an image”
on page 55.
If Initial Deployment is used, you select the configuration settings to apply to the
computer after it is imaged. To deploy a new computer that does not have an
operating system, use Initial Deployment.
See
“Deploying new computers”
on page 64.
If the computer is a member of a domain, supply the appropriate credentials to
rejoin the domain.
You can create an image that retains its data and software by creating a backup
image.
See
“About creating an image”
on page 59.
You must create a deployment task before you can run it.
See
“Creating a deployment task”
on page 42.
For Linux operating systems, deploying disk images and backup images does not
fully support the reiser file system. Image deployment supports only the SUSE
Ext3 file system. If you have a reiser partition, you must use the -raw switch when
you image the partition to preserve its structure.
You can choose several options while creating this task.
See
“Deploy Image options”
on page 62.
You can also set up advanced imaging options for this task.
