Information Mode (img info)

Use the Information mode to view the following:

• The data currently stored in the image-safe area on the workstation

  This data is saved by the Imaging Agent during each Windows session to ensure that it can be restored after the workstation is reimaged. If the workstation is new and doesn't have Windows yet, an initial set of data is supplied from an eDirectory policy via the Imaging server to the imaging engine when the first base Windows image is put down. (For more information, see Defining an Imaging Policy for Unregistered Workstations (Server Policy).)

• Information about the hardware devices on the workstation

  This information is detected during the imaging bootup process. If the imaging engine runs in auto-imaging mode, this information is sent to the imaging server to help determine which image to put on the workstation, if necessary.

• Name of the base image that was last put down on the workstation

To use the Information mode:

1. Enter img to display the ZENworks Imaging Engine menu, click System Information, then click Image-Safe Data or Detected Hardware. See the table below for details.
