Drive mappings
Set drive mappings used by the Deployment Agent for DOS to access hard disk image
files and other packages from a specified network drive. You must map the F Drive to
the Deployment Share. You can also map other file server directories when storing large
numbers of image files or deployment packages.
Click Add to open the Add Drive Mapping page. Select the following options:
OS. Select the operating system from the drop-down list.
Drive Mapping. Enter the drive letter and volume of a shared folder. Example:
F: \\WebDeploy\Image files.
Note
You must select a shared folder in this field. You can browse and select any type of
folder, but the Deployment Agent for DOS maps to and accesses files only from a shared
folder.
Path. Enter a UNC path.
You can also edit or remove a drive mapping from the list. See also
on page 109.
Authentication
Provide the login credentials that the Deployment Agent for DOS needs to map network
drives. The associated credentials for each network drive must have the rights that the
Automation agents need to access files.
Domain/Workgroup. To map the network drives, enter the name of the user's Domain
or Workgroup that the Deployment Agent for DOS uses to log on.
Username. To map the network drives, enter the user name that the Deployment
Agent for DOS logs on as.
Password. Enter the password.
Confirm Password. Retype the password for confirmation.
