Allowing Overwriting Filenames and Restricting Save Location of Image Files (Imaging Server Settings)

Most of the rules that comprise an Imaging Server Policy apply only when the Imaging server is servicing a request to auto-image a workstation. Such rules aren't in force when the Imaging server is servicing a manual (command line or menu) imaging request.

However, the following two aspects of the Imaging Server policy are actually Imaging server settings that always apply, including when the Imaging server is servicing an automatic imaging request, when the Imaging server is servicing a manual imaging request, when registered workstations are booting up, and when unregistered workstations are booting up:

• Whether to allow the creation of new image files that overwrite existing image files on the server
• Whether to restrict the creation of new image files on the server to specific areas

To define these general behaviors for one or more Imaging servers:

1. If a Server Package hasn't already been created to hold the policies for the target Imaging servers, create one as instructed in Creating Policy Packages.

2. Right-click the Server Package, then click Properties.

3. Enable the Imaging Server Policy, then click Properties.

4. Fill in the items on the Security tab. Click Help for details.

5. Click OK to save the policy.

6. On the Associations page, add the containers and/or server objects that represent the target set of Imaging servers.

7. Click OK to save the association.
