How to Create the Windows Image Server (Browser Interface)

Steps

1. In the Common Tasks section of the provisioning software page, select OS Provisioning.

2. On the OS Provisioning Common Tasks page, click Create in the Windows Image Servers section.

3. On the Plans Details page, click Run.

4. Choose variables to use for this plan.

   • To use an existing variables set, select a name from the drop-down menu in the WindowsServer component row of the Plan Parameters table.

   • To create a new variables set, click Select from List in the WindowsServer component row of the Plan Parameters table.

     1. Click Create Set.

     2. Type a name for the variables set.

     3. Verify variables and change them, if needed.

        The image server component has only a few variables, most of which you are unlikely to change. For a list of those variables and their default values, see Windows Image Server Component Variables.

     4. Save the variables set.

     5. Select the variables set that you just saved from the drop-down menu in the WindowsServer component row of the Plan Parameters table.

5. Select the host on which to create the Windows image server.

6. Click Run Plan (includes preflight).

7. To verify that the image server is created successfully, click the Hosts link in the left side of the provisioning server window.

   You should see the name of the virtual host appended with -windows. For example, if you installed on host masterserver, the virtual host is masterserver-windows.
