Automated Deployment
The installed image in the FX160 computer includes a deployment server
agent that interacts with an Altiris Deployment Server, providing an
environment for the automated deployment of system updates including
system image, application software, BIOS updates and configuration, etc.
The FX160 computer includes a Preboot Execution Environment (PXE)
capable network interface. However, for improved security Dell advises that
systems setup for automated deployment are configured to use an
automation partition instead of PXE.
Documentation for Altiris software can be found at:
http://www.altiris.com/Support/Documentation.aspx
Your FX160 system is licensed to use the Altiris Deployment Server.
