Deployment Strategies

There are several different ways to deploy SUSE® Linux Enterprise. Choose from
various approaches ranging from a local installation using physical media or a network
installation server to a mass deployment using a remote-controlled, highly-customized,
and automated installation technique. Select the method that best matches your require-
ments.

2.1 Deploying up to 10 Workstations

If your deployment of SUSE Linux Enterprise only involves 1 to 10 workstations, the
easiest and least complex way of deploying SUSE Linux Enterprise is a plain manual
installation as featured in
tion can be done in several different ways depending on your requirements:
Installing from the SUSE Linux Enterprise Media
Consider this approach if you want to install a single, disconnected workstation.
Installing from a Network Server Using SLP
Consider this approach if you have a single workstation or a small number of
workstations and if a network installation server announced via SLP is available.
Installing from a Network Server
Consider this approach if you have a single workstation or a small number of
workstations and if a network installation server is available.
