Scenario 2
You want to perform deployment to a big number of machines. For one of those machines, however,
you need to perform deployment to the second hard disk, rather than to the first hard disk.
1. You enter the MAC addresses of all machines so that all machines appear in the list of machines.
2. You specify an individual setting for the corresponding machine: to deploy to the second hard
disk.
3. You set up a deployment operation to perform deployment to the first hard disk. Deployment to
that specific machine will be performed to the second hard disk.
1.2.6 User-initiated deployment (custom deployment)
Acronis Snap Deploy 4 can be configured in such a way that users will be able to deploy and re-
deploy their machines with one click on the boot menu.
This way of deployment is also called custom deployment.
Scenarios
Scenario 1
Software testers have to deploy clean operating systems or preconfigured systems on test
machines.
A test team leader creates a custom bootable media or a PXE package that provides a fixed set of
choices on the target side. A test team member reboots a test machine and selects what to
deploy from the boot menu with one click. The deployment starts immediately. The choices can
be various operating systems, various editions of the same operating system, the same operating
system with various settings or various applications, to name a few. The deployment proceeds
independently on each machine.
Scenario 2
In a university or school lab, switching between exercises requires reconfiguring the machine
entirely. Students can switch or restart exercises without the teacher’s assistance. If a student
messes up the machine (for example, deletes a file or changes configuration), the student can
choose a self-restore option from the boot menu.
1.2.7 Deployment of a disk volume and MBR
You do not necessarily have to deploy the entire disk. Provided that the master and the target disks
have a similar partitioning scheme, you can image and deploy only the system volume or only the
data, depending on your needs.
When deploying a system volume, Acronis Snap Deploy 4 will automatically repair the bootability of
the deployed system.
Note: GPT volumes with Linux operating systems on UEFI machines are not supported for imaging and
deployment.
