Replicating the setup

The following procedures give an administrator the ability to easily copy one setup configuration to other workstations of the same model. This allows for faster, more consistent configuration of multiple workstations.

NOTE: Both procedures require a diskette drive or a supported USB flash media device, such as an HP Drive Key.

Copying to single workstation

CAUTION: A setup configuration is model-specific. File system corruption may result if source and target workstations are not the same model. For example, do not copy the setup configuration from a xw3400 Workstation to a xw3400 Workstation.
