ImageUltra Builder target computers

Target computers must meet the following minimum requirements before you deploy Smart Images to them:

Operating system: The target computer must meet the minimum requirements to install and run the
operating system being deployed.

Networking requirements: The target computer must be network enabled for a direct-network installation
or a standard network deployment with local installation. There are no networking requirements if images are
installed from Distribution Discs.

Removable-media drives: The target computer must have a bootable, removable-media drive (CD or DVD
drive) to accommodate a Network Deployment Disc, or Distribution Disc.

Note: USB, CD and DVD drives are not supported for use with Network Deployment Discs, or Distribution
Discs.

Prerequisites

The following are installation prerequisites for the ImageUltra Builder 5.0 program to perform properly, and
for you to create and distribute Smart Images legally with the proper licensing:

• The repository must be accessible to the ImageUltra console, the source computer for import operations,

and any target computer that will have a Smart Image deployed over the network.

• Ensure proper licensing:

– The ImageUltra Builder license agreement applies to the ImageUltra Builder program only. Read the

license carefully during the installation process. All other licenses, warranty service, and support for
non-Lenovo products, such as Microsoft Sysprep, Symantec Norton Ghost, Symantec DeployCenter,
and Microsoft ImageX must be acquired from the third party, not Lenovo. Lenovo makes no
representations or warranties regarding non-Lenovo products. If you need to review the license after
installation, click Help in the ImageUltra Builder menu bar, and then click View the license.

– Lenovo requires that you obtain a per-seat license for each computer on which a Smart Image is

deployed. For information about ordering licenses, contact your Lenovo marketing representative.

– You are solely responsible for obtaining any licenses required to distribute operating systems,

application programs, and any other licensed software.
