One sdi image for multiple computers ?

[Damien]

Hi all,

Is there a way to have only one sdi image for multiple computers on
the same network using Remote Boot Service, with a different name &
SID for each one ??

Thanks for your reply

Damien,

If all your computer are based on the same hardware, you will just need to
include and use System Cloning Tool component (read XPe docs).

If not, read this thread

It may help you a bit.

Thanks for your reply,

If i use cloning, can i join a domain (by script phase 20000) without
rebooting, or with a reboot that not cleared RAM ?

I am not sure about that. You may want to test it.
My guess would be that it does require a reboot.

You can only retain the domain membership after cloning (cmiUnjoinDomain
extended property of the new System Cloning Tool hotfix or -keepdomain
command line switch of FbReseal.exe).

or with a reboot that not cleared RAM ?

Nope.. with Remote Boot and no persistent storage there is no way to "not
clear RAM".
