You need to notify your users of the shortcut that was created in the administrative image. The shortcut is the
same name that you chose when you
created a deployment.
To point users to the administrative image
■ The simplest method of notifying users how to install the deployment is to email them with instructions
about using the shortcut. At a minimum, the instructions need to include the location of the deployment
and instructions about double-clicking the shortcut to the deployment.
