Automating deployments

Appliance boot actions automate scripted installation, system image, and multicast WIM and DMG image deployments by initiating the deployment the next time that the target device network boots in to the KACE Boot Environment (KBE) or NetBoot Environment at a scheduled time.

The appliance boot process requires that the device Network Interface Card (NIC) is in the BIOS boot order because the appliance identifies devices by their MAC address.

You can create a boot action for one device or for multiple devices, and assign multiple boot actions to the same device by managing the boot action schedule.

When you make changes to an existing boot action, the boot action with previous information is deleted automatically.

Create a boot action

Create a boot action

You can create a boot action to automate scripted installation, system image, and KACE Boot Environment and NetBoot environment deployments to devices that are in Device Inventory, Network Inventory, scanned devices, or to any device with a known MAC address.

a.
Run at next boot: Initiates the deployment on the next network boot.
b.
Schedule to run later: Specifies a day and time: Run once on: every (day), at: H (hour), and M (minute). Run repeatedly runs the deployment every day at the time you specify.
5.
Under Options > Type, select a unicast or multicast deployment.
a.
Optional: In Timeout to wait for connection 'Ready to receive' state, increase the timeout to allow target devices more time to network boot. The default is ten minutes.
b.
Click Show advanced settings to change the default multicast address, control channel port, multicast hops, transmission rate, and log level.
7.
Optional: For multicast deployments, in Timeout to wait for connection 'Ready to receive' state, increase the timeout to allow target devices more time to network boot. The default is 10 minutes. Click Show advanced settings to change the default multicast address, control channel port, and transmission rate for this deployment. .
8.
Under Devices, enter one or more MAC addresses, or select devices from the View All drop-down list to add devices to the deployment.
