Introduction
This paper provides instructions for imaging the HP WES- and XPe-based thin
clients.
Note
Although the Altiris Client agent is preinstalled, a free
license will no longer be included on the t574x and all
new platforms going forward. To purchase a license,

Imaging an HP thin client with Altiris RapiDeploy is similar to imaging a PC, but
with a few limitations and advisories. Conflicts with the write filter partition and
current imaging technology can cause problems if not handled correctly. This
document explains these limitations and the correct procedures for imaging the thin
client with customer-modified Altiris images and Hewlet -Packard factory images.
Prerequisites
There are two methods to create or restore an image to an HP thin client. Both
methods require an Automation pre-boot environment with a network drive mapped
to the express share of the deployment server and the image filestore. HP
recommends that users change the boot order on all thin clients to either network or
PXE boot as the first device. You can do this locally through BIOS setup or remotely
by script execution of the HP Compaq Thin Client Boot Order Change Utility
through Altiris Deployment Server. You can find the HP Compaq Thin Client Boot
Order Change Utility at ht p://www.hp.com.
Additionally, imaging requires the following:
• ROM version 1.05 or higher is required for the boot order utility to work
• Deployment Server 6.5 for images using EWF filter
Images using the FBWF must use Deployment Solution 6.9 SP3. 6.9 SP3 has a
known issue with Sidgen on some WES thin clients when using FBWF in
conjunction with the default user account on the thin client. The recommended
