This section discusses deployment scenarios for PSPs and components stored in a centralized, network-based software repository.
All of the PSP deployment examples described in this guide assume a centralized, network-based software repository. The same deployment principles are applicable to PSP software that is stored locally on the administrative system, target system, SmartStart CD, or Software Maintenance CD.
|
TIP: To facilitate the use of the PSP deployment utilities, copy the utility files to their own subdirectory on the hard drive of the administrative system. |
The following figure illustrates overall PSP and component deployment strategy for Windows®-based systems.
