Adding an OS license

Creating a PXE preboot image

Before you use Sysprep with a Deployment job or task, you need to select the OS
and the corresponding OS license for the job. This information must be configured
before the job is created.
See
"About Sysprep imaging"
The OS Licenses list stores the Volume License Keys (VLKs) that deploy the
Sysprep-enabled images.

Your new license displays in the OS Licenses list.
The Preboot Configuration page lets you add a new policy for a preboot
configuration. After you have a configuration, you can use it to create a PXE image.
Tasks can then access and use that specific preboot configuration-based image.The
preboot configuration can also be used to create preboot installation files.
See
"About PXE"
on page 24.
This process also creates a resource that can be used to reboot to a task. You can
also use the resource to reboot to any job that requires you to reboot to PXE.
If the preboot policy is enabled, the server starts building the PXE image after the
server requests an updated configuration.
