Its Summary page displays.Ĭlick the Actions tab, then click Add > ZENworks Image. In ZENworks Control Center, click Bundles in the left pane to display the Bundles panel, then in the Name column click a Preboot bundle containing a base image that you want to associate the add-on images with. You might want to copy your add-on images to the same location as the base image. For more information, see Creating an Add-On Image from Files in a File System.Ĭopy the add-on image file to a Configuration Management Imaging Server that is accessible in your Management Zone. (Optional) Specify any advanced options, such as sfileset or apartition:ppartition.įor details on this and other related img commands, see Section E.0, ZENworks Imaging Engine Commands.Ĭreate the add-on image to associate with the preboot bundle. For more information, see Section A.0, File Sets and Image Numbers. Using Image Explorer, you can create file sets for selection when creating the Preboot bundle. In the Restore Image Wizard window, specify the source location of the image (Local or Server), then click Next.īrowse to and specify the path to the image archive. If you removed all partitions using fdisk, each slot should be empty and none should be active.

Select Enable ZENworks Partition from the Novell Preboot Services Menu.Įnter img to display the ZENworks Imaging Engine menu. Verify that the device boots to the operating system that was installed by the new image. Remove any CD, DVD or bootable USB from the drive and reboot the device. You should now see information about the new partitions that are created and activated by the image that you just applied. (Optional) After the image is applied and the prompt is displayed, type img -dump, then press Enter.Īs before, this displays a list of the partition slots on the device. Images usually take slightly longer to apply than they do to take.

If you want to manually restore an image from a folder that uses extended or double-byte characters in its name, you should perform an automatic image restoration. However, you can use backslashes and enclose an entire UNC path in quotes. IMPORTANT:Make sure to use forward slashes in the UNC path as shown above. The script then runs the commands to restore the image on the device and ejects the DVD when finished.įor information on creating an Linux Imaging Script bundle, see Section 3.4, Configuring Linux Imaging Script Bundles for ZENworks Imaging.

This example is a combination of automatic and manual tasks, where you define the bundle in ZENworks Control Center, assign it to the device, then when the device boots, it runs the bundle’s script, prompting you to insert the DVD containing an image into the device’s DVD drive. This is applicable only for ZENworks Imaging.įor example, if you want to mount a DVD and restore an image from it, you could enter something similar to the following in the Script Text field in the Create New Preboot Bundle Wizard when defining an Linux Imaging Script bundle: echo "Please insert the DVD containing the image into the drive Any imaging commands can be entered for the script. You can perform scripted imaging using the Linux Imaging Script bundle. To create an add-on image of files selected from a file system for use in Step 8, see Creating an Add-On Image from Files in a File System. This base image can be used in Step 8 under Configuring the ZENworks Image Bundle for Automatic Imaging. If you want to move a Ghost image to a different location, you must move all the image files and the XML file specific to the image. If you are taking an image of a device that has multiple disks, an image file is created for each disk and only one XML file is created per image. If the images are taken in the Ghost format, ZENworks additionally creates an XML file with the filename as image_name-ghost.xml in the same location as the image file. However, the ZENworks images are not replicated from the Primary Server to other Primary Servers or Satellites.

The images are stored in %ZENWORKS_HOME%\work\content-repo\images on the Windows Primary Server and in /var/opt/novell/zenworks/content-repo/images on the Linux Primary Server, or on the device that is promoted to the Imaging Server role. If you completed Step 7, the image is assigned to the bundle when it is created.
