  • 1.  Is there an automatism for a client to pick the right WinPE Preboot Environment?

    Hi,
    if you install both x86 and x64 WinPE Preeboot Evironments, how does the Client decide which Environment will be used for a deployment job?
    Do you have to set this as an option in the deployment job or is there an automatism that x64 Clients will pick x64 and x86 Clients chose x86 preboot Environment.
    Regards,

    From what I have been seeing in our enviroment, if you install both x86 and x64 versions of the WinPE Preboot, the computer will automatically pick up the version of WinPE that is appropriate for its hardware.  Our x64 machines pick up the x64 version of WinPE and our x86 pick up the x86.  I believe that the PXE portion picks up on the hardware then send the appropiate one.

    You'll see and option called Linux [Auto Select] if you look closely in the automation settings when creating the Deploy job. This will automatically select the right version based on the OS you're running.
