Setting Up Workstations for Imaging 453
Novell Confidential Manual (99a) 28 October 2003
For more information on registering the workstation as an object, see “Automatic Workstation
Import and Removal” on page 59.
You don’t need to complete all the tasks mentioned in the instructions. Just create a server
policy package that contains a minimal workstation import policy (use the defaults for
naming, groups, and limits), and then associate the server package with the container where
you want the Workstation object to be created. Then, configure the workstation to
communicate with the import service on the imaging server, and reboot the workstation.
Before proceeding with the next step, check your NDS or eDirectory tree to make sure the
Workstation object was created.
3 Set a flag in the Workstation object that triggers the imaging operation you want.
For more information, see “Triggering an Unattended Imaging Operation” on page 461.
4 Install the ZfD Imaging Agent on the workstation.
When you put a new base image on a Windows workstation, the workstation receives the same
identification data as the computer from which the image was taken, including such settings
as the IP address and computer (NETBIOS) name. To work around this, you can install the
ZfD Imaging Agent on the target workstation before reimaging it. This saves the workstation’s
current identity settings to an area on the hard disk that’s safe from reimaging. When the
workstation reboots after being reimaged, the agent restores the original settings.
IMPORTANT: The Imaging Agent does not save or restore any Windows NT/2000/XP Domain
information. If you change a workstation’s domain and then restore an image, the workstation will receive
whatever domain is embedded in the new image.
The ZfD Imaging Agent has already been installed on the workstation if in Step 1 you did a
custom Novell Client installation and chose the Imaging Services option. If this is the case,
skip to Step 5. Or, you can choose to install the Imaging Agent by running the ZISD-9x or
ZISD-NT application object on the workstation (for more information, see Chapter 21,
“Distributing Applications to Users and Workstations,” on page 207). Otherwise, proceed
with Step 4a to install the ZfD Imaging Agent.
4a Browse to the zenworks\imaging folder in your ZfD installation (on the imaging server).
4b Complete the steps that correspond to the type of workstation:
Workstation Type Steps
Windows 98 1. Copy ziswin.exe, zislib16.dll, and zislib32.dll to the novell\zenis
folder.
2. Run ziswin.exe from the novell\zenis folder.
3. Run regedit.exe and browse to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE >
Software > Microsoft > Windows > CurrentVersion > RunServices.
4. Add the string value
ZENwork Imaging Service and set it to the
filename and path of the ziswin.exe file. For example,
c:\novell\zenis\ziswin.exe
5. Save the changes and close regedit.
Windows NT 4 or
2000
1. Copy ziswin.exe and ziswinr.dll (in the nls\english subfolder or the
appropriate language subfolder) to your winnt\system32 folder.
2. From a command prompt, change to your winnt\system32 folder >
type ziswin -install > press Enter.
