Booting with a PXE-on-Disk Diskette

Before you boot a client workstation with a PXE-on-Disk diskette, you should make sure that ZfD 3.2 Preboot Services has been installed on a network server. This is the server that will communicate with the client workstation and give it tasks (such as workstation imaging) to perform. For more information about installing ZfD 3.2 Preboot Services on a server, see Setting Up ZENworks for Desktops Preboot Services in Installation at the ZfD 3.2 Preboot Services documentation Web site.

When you know that ZfD 3.2 Preboot Services is installed on the server, you can reboot the client workstation with a PXE-on-Disk diskette. During the reboot cycle, the client workstation will:

  1. Establish a connection with the ZfD 3.2 Preboot Services server.
  2. Execute any imaging work to be performed.
  3. Continue its boot cycle.
