system, or you are applying a Vista .wim file from a Vista system, no update
is needed. However, if you are trying to apply an XP WIM from Vista, or a
Vista WIM from XP, then you need to also run the BOOTSECT.EXE command
to adjust the boot sector. To apply an XP WIM, you would run the
bootsect.exe /nt52 X: command. To apply a Vista .wim file, you would run the
bootsect.exe /nt60 X: command.

Copying a multiple partition image to the storage array,
version 1.x
Many organizations utilize multiple partitions within their PC image. In most
cases, the first partition is the Windows partition and the second is a redirected
data partition for storing user data. To allow for these multiple partitions to be
copied from the local hard disk of a Secure Managed Client client to the storage
array, do the following:
1. Create the base image on the storage array using the Secure Managed Client
Management Console. That image will be in Pending state.
2. Start the client with the image sysprepped to the hard drive to the ULOS
screen.
3. Insert your Secure Managed Client WinPE CD into the CD-ROM drive on the
client.
4. In the Secure Managed Client Management Console, left-click, hold and drag
the client machine to the base image in pending state. For example, drag a
client named LENOVO-L3A0426 down to the Test Base Image.
5. The Boot SMC Client window opens. Select include cd-rom in the boot order
at the bottom of the window.
6. Click Boot.
7. After several seconds, the client will restart and boot from the CD. Windows
PE will load and a wizard will start. This allows the client to be connected to
the storage array Pending image space you created in step 1 to allow for
placing an operating system in that space.
8. Click Next and then choose the Command Line option from the wizard. A
command prompt will open.
