1.3.1 Imaging Bundles

Configuration Management uses Imaging bundles to apply Preboot Services work to devices. For
example, Imaging bundles can contain tasks, such as restoring an image, that are performed at the
time a device boots.
In order for a device to utilize an Imaging bundle, the bundle must be assigned to the device, its
group, or its folder.
The available Imaging bundles are:
