(Linux*) partition. For more information, see Step 6 on page 454 of “Enabling a Workstation

for Auto-Imaging Operations” on page 452.

3. Reboot from the ZENworks for Desktops imaging partition (not required if you are using

Preboot Services).

4. Let the computer be auto-imaged by the policy.

5. After deploying the machine, register it as a Workstation object in Novell eDirectory

. For

more information, see “Automatic Workstation Import and Removal” on page 59.

Enabling Existing Workstations for Future Reimaging

With minimal disruption to users, you can enable existing workstations for possible future

reimaging.

This might need to be phased in by local administrators. Each administrator could do the

following:

1. Upgrade each workstation to the latest Novell Client, using Automatic Client Update. Or,

install the ZENworks for Desktops Management Agent. ZENworks for Desktops lets

ZENworks work with or without an installation of the Novell Client on the workstation. If

your setup does not require the client, then the Management Agent must be installed. For more

information, see Installing the ZfD Management Agent on a Workstation in the ZENworks for

Desktops 4.0.1 Installation Guide.

2. Install the ZENworks for Desktops Imaging Agent on each workstation by distributing an

Application object. For more information, see Step 4 on page 453 of “Enabling a Workstation

for Auto-Imaging Operations” on page 452.

3. Register each workstation as a Workstation object in eDirectory. For more information, see

“Automatic Workstation Import and Removal” on page 59.

4. If the workstations are PXE capable, make sure PXE is enabled (see “Preboot Services

(PXE)” on page 445) and make sure that ZENworks for Desktops Preboot Services (PXE

Support) has been installed on your imaging server (see ZENworks for Desktops 4 Preboot

Services PXE-on-Disk User Guide). Or, prepare a few sets of imaging boot diskettes or CDs

that users can use when they run into trouble (see “Preparing an Imaging Boot Device or

Method” on page 445). These devices could point to an imaging server that contains the same

clean images used for new computers.

5. If a user runs into trouble, use the strategy for reimaging corrupted workstations.

Reimaging Corrupted Workstations

Without data loss or undue disruption to users, you can fix workstations that have become

misconfigured or corrupted.

1. Create a policy for registered workstations. Use the same image-selection logic as the policy

for new (unregistered) workstations. For more information, see “Defining an Imaging Policy

for Registered Workstations (Workstation Policy)” on page 459.

2. When a computer needs to be fixed, have the user back up (to the network) any files that he

or she wants to keep.

3. Flag the Workstation object in eDirectory to receive an image the next time it boots. For more

information, see “Triggering an Unattended Imaging Operation” on page 461.
