30.1.3 Setting Up Disconnected Imaging Operations

Disconnected imaging operations are inherently manual. To perform a disconnected imaging
operation on a device, you must have a storage device to hold the image to be created or put down,
and that storage device must be locally accessible to the ZENworks Imaging Engine (in Linux)
when you boot the device from the imaging boot media.
The following sections explain how to set up and perform disconnected operations:
"Using a CD or DVD for Disconnected Imaging Operations" on page 415

Image File Set Usages
How to specify the file set to use
In the Multicast Wizard in the ZENworks Control Center, specify the number of the file
set in the File set field. You must create the file set using the Image Explorer utility.
For more information, see
You can create multiple Preboot bundles that point to the same base image, but to
different file sets of that image.
Use the s parameter on the img restore command. For example, to specify file set
number 3:
img restorel dellnt4.zmg s3
or
You can enter img at the bash prompt to display a menu, select Restore an image,
then select Local image. Specify sfileset (for example, s3) in the Advanced
parameters field.
