Editing the information of a WinPE deployment engine

You can edit the description and the comment attached to a WinPE deployment engine.

Procedure

To edit the description and comment of a deployment engine:

  1. Go to Server > Advanced features > Deployment engines.
  2. To view the details of the deployment engine, perform one of the following options:
    • Double-click a deployment engine.
    • Select a deployment engine, and then select View engine details in the contextual menu.
  3. Click Edit above the section Deployment engine information.
  4. Update the description and the comment to identify more easily how this WinPE deployment engine is to be used.
  5. Click OK to save your changes and return to the Engine details page.

Example

If you intend to use this deployment engine to deploy IBM servers, you might want to call your WinPE deployment engine WinPE3 for IBM servers 32-bit. The comment can include the server models that this WinPE deployment engine is planned to be compatible with.

What to do next

If you updated the description of your WinPE deployment engine, you probably have more than one deployment engine per architecture. In this case, provide matching target models for your deployment engines.
