68 Tivoli Provisioning Manager for OS Deployment in a Retail Environment
Figure 3-14 completed image capture
We now have an image on the Tivoli Provisioning Manager for OS Deployment
server, that we can use for deployment to multiple systems. Before we do this,
however, it is recommended to do some adjustments, including adding device
drivers and define hostnaming standards.
3.1.3 Configuring the system profileA significant characteristic about Tivoli Provisioning Manager for OS Deployment
is that we have not simply copied the disk sectors to create the clone image.
Instead, we copied the files from the donor machine. This means that we can
now browse and change the details of the profile after it is captured. From here
you can do the following:
Add and delete files and directories from the image
Change the hard disk layout
Review the binding details for computer models
Change and view the system code page
Add additional user binding categories
