Override the Default Boot Configuration

To minimize network load, computers should boot locally if possible. However, in the following cases CCM automatically sets network booting after executing the following tasks:

• Partitioning and formatting a computer hard drive.

• Installing, modifying, or updating the operating system or the network software.

• Editing computer data in the CCM Command Center.

2. Right-click the computer name item.

3. Click Edit Computer Properties.

4. In the Boot and Security tab, set the Netboot option.

• Uncheck the Netboot option to set the computer to boot locally.

5. Click OK.
