Configuring Workstation Imaging

After you have completed the Desktop Management Services installation, you need to configure Workstation Imaging to work in the clustering environment. The following steps provide the configuration information you need. In addition, you need to be aware of a multicast issue in the clustering environment. For more information, see Multicast Issue.

1. Edit the tftp.ini file in shared_cluster_volume:\system, then comment the following line:

   ReadPath=sys:\tftp\

   Add the following line directly after the one you just commented, substituting the actual name of your shared cluster volume:

   ReadPath=shared_cluster_volume:\tftp\

2. Edit the pdhcp.ini file in shared_cluster_volume:\system, then add the following line, substituting the actual IP address of the shared volume on the virtual server:

   TRANSACTION_SERVER_IP = IP_address_of_the_shared_cluster_volume_on virtual_server

3. Edit the zfdstart.ncf file in shared_cluster_volume:\system, then change the following line from this:

   SEARCH ADD shared_cluster_volume:\SYSEM

   to this:

   SEARCH ADD shared_cluster_volume:\SYSTEM

4. Modify the cluster object in the unload script.

   1. In ConsoleOne, open the Cluster object, right-click the NWCS volume resource, then click Properties.

   2. On the Unload page, type unload imgserv <<y in the Script text box, then click Apply.

   3. On the Cluster State page, select the resource volume you want to offline, click Offline, reselect the same resource volume, then click Online.

      This step restarts the imaging server from scratch.

5. Edit the zfdstop.ncf file in shared_cluster_volume:\system, then comment the following line:

   Unload imgserv
