Understanding the Deployment Server 26

9.

The Deployment Agent begins executing task 6 of the job.

Target Server

WinPE 32-bit, executing task

Job

Task 6—Distribute Disk Image {WinPE 32-bit}
.\lib\images\NTFS.IMG

10.

Task 7 in the job is a Reboot. By looking ahead at task 8, the Deployment Server directs the
Deployment Agent to set the one-time boot EV to PXE and then reboot. When the targets reboot

to PXE, the PXE Server sends it the WinPE 64-bit image.
This reboot is mandatory so that the subsequent file copy tasks are able to use the new hard
drive.

7—Reboot

11.

When the Deployment Agent connects to the Deployment Server, task 8 of the job begins to
execute. Since tasks 8 through 12 all run in WinPE 64-bit without a Reboot task, they execute

sequentially while in WinPE 64-bit.
