Initial workstation configuration and deployment
Your workstation includes a preinstalled system software image. After a brief software unbundling
process, the workstation is ready to use.
If you prefer to replace the preinstalled software image with a customized set of system and application
software, several methods are available for deploying a customized software image, including:
●
Installing additional software applications after unbundling the preinstalled software image
●
Using a disk cloning process to copy the contents from one hard drive to another
