Injecting drivers into the Plug-in Offline Client image

If you do not, or cannot, use a device such as a USB device, 3.0 protocol or earlier, to load a driver after Windows® PE has started, use the following process to add the driver to the Plug-in Offline Client image and then re-create the Plug-in Offline Client image with the added driver. To complete this process, you must have Windows ADK for Windows 8 installed, the applicable “*.inf” file, a program capable of extracting an ISO image, and a method for repackaging the ISO as a bootable image or bootable CD. The following steps are based on Windows 7; these steps might differ depending on your environment.

2
Install the Windows ADK on a Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows Server 2012, Windows 7, or Windows 8 system.
IMPORTANT: Installation of Windows ADK also installs Microsoft® .NET Framework if it is not already installed. After .NET Framework is installed, the system is automatically restarted.
3
Extract the “NetVault Bare Metal Recovery ISO Builder for Plug-in Offline Client for Windows file to the Windows ADK machine.
This step creates two files, “nvbmrisocreate.exe” and “nvbmriso.pkg.”
5
To create the Windows PE ISO image, navigate to the directory that contains the extracted “nvbmrisocreate.exe” file, type the following at the command prompt, and press Enter:
/TYPE: If you are working with an earlier version of the Plug-in Offline Client, enter WAIK for Windows Automated Installation Kit (AIK). If you are using version 6.1 or later, you can enter ADK.
/PKG: Enter the full path and filename for the Plug-in Offline Client .pkg file that you downloaded separately.
/DIR: Enter the full path to the location of the Windows AIK or ADK directory.
/OUT: Enter the path where the bootable ISO image should be created.
/ADDDRV: Enter the full path where the downloaded device drivers are stored.
/BIT:32: If you must create a backward-compatible version of VaultOS for use with a 32-bit version of Windows PE, enter this option.
/PKG:"<pathToFile>\nvbmriso.pkg"
