Configuration and Deployment

HP computers come with a preinstalled system software image.
The initial software image is configured during the first time
setup of the computer. After a brief software "unbundling"
occurs, the computer is ready to be used.
A customized software image can be deployed (distributed) by:
■
Installing additional software applications after unbundling
the preinstalled software image.
■
Using software deployment tools, such as Altiris Deployment
Solutions, to replace the preinstalled software with a
customized software image.
■
Using a disk cloning process to copy the contents from one
hard drive to another.
The deployment method you should use depends on your
organization's technology environment and processes. Visit the
HP Web site at
information on selecting the best deployment method for your
organization.
✎
The system recovery CDs, Computer Setup utility, and other
system features provide further assistance with recovery of
system software, configuration management and troubleshooting,
and power management.
