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.

1.
On the left navigation pane, click Deployments, then click Automated Deployments to display the Automated Deployments page.
2.
Select Choose Action > New Boot Action to display the Automated Deployment Detail page.
* 
NOTE: You can assign multiple boot actions to the same device by managing the schedule for the deployment.
3.
Under Boot Action Details:
a.
Assign a Name to the boot action.
b.
In the From box, select the appliance or a linked RSA appliance containing the deployment that you want to automate.
c.
Select a deployment from the Deployment drop-down list.
System images only. The list of system images depends on your selection in the From box:
▪
If you selected the appliance, the list displays all system images that exist on the appliance.
▪
If you selected an RSA, the list displays all system image that are synchronized to the RSA and also any images that are captured with the RSA.
Only use WIM images for Windows multicast deployments, and use DMG images for Mac OS X multicast deployments.
d.
Add Notes to identify the boot action.
4.
Under Options > Schedule, select one of the following to run the deployment:
a.
Run at next boot: Initiates the deployment on the next network boot.
b.

Under Options > Type, select a unicast or multicast deployment.
* 
NOTE: You cannot schedule multicast ASR deployments to run later.
