DC Agent installation and imaging
Hi,
We are using Microsoft Deployment Toolkit to create OS images which are then deployed to hundreds of workstations. The images are sysprep'ed, and we are wondering if it is possible to install the Desktop Central agent in animage and have it sysprep'ed, or if we have to install it after the image is deployed, or deploy it through the network.
How is the the "agentID" (if any) generated ? Looking in the registry, maybe CompCanonicalName ? If the image is sysprep'ed, the computer name will change. Can we delete the "agentID" with sysprep ? Will the client regenerate it with correct computer name ?
Thank you for your answer,
Damien
