Verifying the Network Share on the Deployment Server

When you created the plan, this network share was created:

\\depsvrname\E920

where depsvrname is the name of your Deployment Server.

Because several of the Workbenches update files through the network share, these workbenches will fail if the share is not writeable. Sometimes the security settings on your Deployment Server will prevent the Planner from creating the share as a writeable share.

Use this procedure to ensure that the share is writeable before proceeding:

  1. On the Deployment Server, navigate to Start | My Computer | Manage

  2. Open Shared Folders.

  3. Open Shares.

  4. Right click on E920 and select Properties and then Share Permissions.

  5. Select properties then select Share Permissions

  6. Make sure that Everyone is set to Full Control, Change, Read permissions.

Note: Even after the Workbenches are complete, you will still need these settings on the Deployment Server's share in order to successfully perform client installs.
