continued Provisioning Services 7.8 Getting Started tutorial eight auto-add device

In the actual production environment, the user will always upgrade the operating system, application software, and drivers. In PVs, the essence of the upgrade is to update the virtual disks that are used by the device.

PVS 7.8 provides two major types of updates, one for manual updates and one for Automatic Updates. compared to Automatic Update, the most inconvenience of manual update is that only the shutdown update, unable to complete the boot state of the device . The manual update of the virtual disks is described below.

Before updating a virtual disk, the user must understand the location of the virtual disk, the mode, and how to ensure that the update will be completed successfully.

1. View Virtual Disk properties: (File location)

Generally there will be three files: one is a virtual disk VHD file, a PvP file, a property file, a Lok file, a lock state file;

There may also be a writecache, which is used to cache folders in standard mode.

2. Replica:
To prevent problems in the update, users should copy the three files as a copy, which in addition to preventing updates from failing, will ensure that other devices that use the virtual disk can start using it normally.

Modify the file name as follows

3. Add or import an existing virtual disk:

Import the virtual disk file that you copied in the previous step to the store.

In the device collection, do the following:

In order to be familiar with the operation process, before the operation, I used the previous introduction of the bulk of the device to import several devices.

Select one of the devices as the update test device and modify the virtual disk to the replica virtual disk that is replicated above WIN2008V1
