452 ZENworks for Desktops 4.0.1 Administration Guide

Novell Confidential Manual (99a) 28 October 2003

The following are the requirements for this workstation:

Enabling a Workstation for Auto-Imaging Operations

The following procedure explains how to register the workstation as an object in your NDS or

eDirectory tree, install a ZfD Imaging Agent on the workstation, and install a permanent ZfD

Workstation Imaging (Linux) partition on the hard disk.

This procedure needs to be performed only once prior to performing auto-imaging (unattended)

operations. It is not a prerequisite to performing manual imaging operations.

Complete this procedure if you are not using Preboot Services (PXE). If you have enabled PXE on

the workstation and have installed ZfD 4 Preboot Services on your imaging server, this procedure

is not a prerequisite to performing unattended imaging operations. For more information, see

“Preboot Services (PXE)” on page 445.

1 If you haven’t already done so, install the Novell Client

on the workstation. For more

information, see Overall Software Requirements in ZENworks for Desktops 3.2 Getting

Started Guide of the ZfD 3.2 documentation.

ZfD 4 lets ZENworks work with or without an installation of the Novell Client on the

workstation. If your setup does not require the Client, then the ZfD Management Agent must

be installed. For more information, see Installing the ZfD Management Agent on a

Workstation in the ZENworks for Desktops 4.0.1 Installation Guide guide.

2 If you haven’t already done so, register the workstation as an object in your NDS or

eDirectory tree that contains the ZfD Workstation Imaging server.

When you boot a Windows workstation from an imaging device or method and allow the

bootup process to proceed in auto-imaging mode, the imaging engine runs on the workstation

and contacts a ZfD Workstation Imaging server. In order for the workstation to be imaged, you

must first either define an NDS or eDirectory policy for the ZfD Workstation Imaging server

(for more information, see “Defining an Imaging Policy for Unregistered Workstations

(Server Policy)” on page 457), or you must register the workstation as an object.

Workstation Must Have Because

A supported Ethernet

card

The workstation must connect with the imaging server to store or retrieve the images. This connection

is made when the workstation is under the control of the ZfD Workstation Imaging engine (which is a

Linux application), not when the workstation is running under Windows. Therefore, make sure the

workstation has a supported Ethernet card. For more information, see Chapter 48, “Supported

Ethernet Cards,” on page 505.

Windows 98, NT 4,

2000, or XP installed

Unattended operations are currently supported only on 32-bit Windows platforms.

50 MB free disk space Unless you are using Preboot Services, unattended operations require a ZfD Workstation Imaging

(Linux) partition to be installed on the workstation hard disk, so that the imaging engine can gain control

on bootup. The default partition size is 100 MB, and the minimum partition size is 50 MB. It is

permissible for the 50 MB free space to be inside an existing partition. This partition is not required if

you are performing manual imaging operations.

Standard hardware

architecture

NEC* PC98 architecture is not supported.

PXE enabled If you are using ZfD Preboot Services, PXE must be enabled either in the BIOS or through a PXE boot

disk. See “Preboot Services (PXE)” on page 445 for more information.
