Updating and Installing: Task Information
Installing and Updating: Why Do It?
• Installing a number of systems from a network ("push" from a
server). This is done where there are many client systems and they
all generally generally require a similar installation. This may use a
standard system image, or "golden disk".
• Re-installing a number of systems from a network server. This is done
where the client systems are to be "updated" and their data is kept on
separate servers, so that only the OS and minimal system
information need to be re-installed. This may also use a standard
system image, or "golden disk".
Other "mixed scenarios" are also possible.
See the following Roadmap to help you find information on the basic
installation tasks you are likely to encounter.
