Security

dependencies

The

ImageUltra

Builder

program

is

able

to

use

the

device-driver

modules

from

the

HPA

during

deployment

if

a

driver

map

is

not

used.

However,

in

order

to

do

so,

the

HPA

security

settings

in

the

target

computer

BIOS

settings

must

be

set

to

either

High

security

or

Medium

security

.

If

the

security

setting

is

set

to

Security

disabled

,

the

ImageUltra

Builder

program

does

not

attempt

to

use

the

device-driver

modules

from

the

HPA;

instead,

it

will

check

to

see

if

a

service

partition

exists

and

attempt

to

use

the

device-driver

modules

from

the

service

partition.

On

computers

that

are

not

HPA-enabled,

there

are

no

corresponding

BIOS

security

settings.

If

a

Smart

Image

is

deployed

without

a

driver

map,

the

ImageUltra

Builder

program

always

attempts

to

use

the

device

drivers

from

the

service

partition.

Staging-area

logic

Because

various

conditions

might

exist

on

different

target

computers,

the

ImageUltra

Builder

program

uses

built-in

logic

to

ensure

that

a

common

Smart

Image

can

be

used

across

a

wide

range

of

computers.

Varying

conditions

include:

v

Support

or

the

lack

of

support

for

an

HPA

in

the

BIOS

v

The

presence

or

absence

of

an

HPA
