Performing Basic Imaging Operations 463

Novell Confidential Manual (99a) 28 October 2003

 You can type img to display a menu > select an Image > Proxy Image. Type the IP

address or DNS name of your imaging (proxy) server. Type the UNC path and filename

where the new image is to be stored on the imaging (proxy) server. Select a compression

option. (Optimize for Speed takes the least amount of time but creates the largest image

file. Optimize for Space creates the smallest image file but might take a significant

amount of time. Balanced is a compromise between compression time and image file

size.) Specify any advanced parameters, such as xpartition. If you want, specify

additional information in the Description (a description of the image), Machine Name

(the computer on which the image is being stored), Author (the name of the person

entering this information), and Comments (any additional comments) fields.

For details on this and other related img command parameters, see “Imaging Engine (Img:

Command Line and Menu)” on page 488.

Depending on the amount of data on the hard disk, the image might take several minutes to

create. If the screen goes blank, just press any key. (Linux enters a screen-saving mode after

a few minutes.)

5 When the image has been created and the bash prompt reappears, remove any diskettes from

the drive and reboot the workstation.

6 (Optional) Verify that the image file was created on your imaging server. You might also want

to check its size.

Manually Putting an Image on a Workstation

The following procedure explains how to put an image on the workstation by booting from an

imaging device or method and entering a particular imaging command. The image will be

retrieved from your imaging server.

Be sure that the workstation receiving a new image has enough disk space for the image.

Otherwise, you will receive a "Failed to write to proxy" error.

1 If you haven’t already done so, create the image that you will put on the workstation, as

instructed in “Manually Taking an Image of a Workstation” on page 462.

Make sure the image is of the same type of workstation (same hardware configuration) and is

stored on your imaging server. You can use a previous image of the same workstation.

IMPORTANT: If you are putting an image on a workstation without a ZfD Workstation Imaging (Linux)

partition, make sure the image was made on a workstation without a ZfD imaging partition. Otherwise, the

wrong MBR (Master Boot Record) is restored, and the workstation will fail to boot.

2 (Optional) Boot the workstation from a Windows startup disk and run fdisk to remove all

partitions from the hard disk.

TIP: Running FDISK is not required, but it is recommended for purposes of comparing the workstation’s

partitions before and after the imaging operation.

3 Boot the workstation using imaging boot diskettes, an imaging boot CD, or if it is PXE-

enabled, boot it from the Imaging/Preboot Services server.

4 Enter manual at the boot prompt or select Start ZENworks Imaging in Maintenance Mode

from the PXE menu.

5 If you are prompted for a language diskette, insert it > press Enter.

6 (Optional) At the bash prompt, type img dump > press Enter.
