For ZTI deployments using Configuration Manager 2007 R3, configure a Configuration Manager 2007 R3 PXE service point site system role on the computer on which Windows Deployment Services is installed. Doing so allows Configuration Manager 2007 R3 to directly service PXE boot requests received by Windows Deployment Services as a PXE service point, which in turn allows target computers to boot images that Configuration Manager 2007 R3 manages using PXE.

For more information about preparing Windows Deployment Services for ZTI deployments using Configuration Manager 2007 R3, see:

·     “How to Deploy an Operating System Image Using PXE” in the Configuration Manager 2007 Documentation Library, included with Configuration Manager 2007 R3

·     “How to Configure the PXE Service Point, in the Configuration Manager 2007 Documentation Library, included with Configuration Manager 2007 R3

Note   In addition to the methods described here, you can use traditional Windows Deployment Services methods for responding to PXE boot requests. For more information, see the Windows Deployment Services Help file included with Windows Deployment Services.
