Parallels Mac Management Features
Additionally, the Windows server running the Configuration Manager console must have the
Windows Assessment and Deployment Kit (Windows ADK) installed. When installing ADK, make
sure that the Deployment Tools option is selected.
Step 2: Create a bootable Mac OS X USB drive
You need a bootable Mac OS X USB drive to create a master and a slave partitions on a Mac to be
imaged.
To create a bootable USB drive:
1 On a Mac running Mac OS X, mount the ".DMG" Mac OS X installation image file.
2 Navigate to /Contents/SharedSupport/InstallESD.dmg
3 Mount the InstallESD.dmg image.
4 Run Finder > Applications > Utilities > Disk Utility.
5 Select the hard disk and click Restore in the right pane.
6 Select InstallESD.dmg/Mac OS X… as Source and the USB drive as Destination.
You can also use a third-party utility to create a bootable USB drive, such as Lion DiskMaker.
Step 3: Prepare a reference Mac computer
Prepare a reference Mac computer to be imaged as follows:
1 On a Mac that doesn't have the operating system installed, boot from the USB drive (press the
Alt key while restarting the Mac and choose the flash drive).
2 Run Disk Utility and install Mac OS X on the master partition.
3 After the the Mac OS X is installed, the Mac will reboot. When rebooting, press the Alt key and
boot from the USB drive again.
4 Run Disk Utility and create a slave partition on the Mac. This step is necessary because you
cannot create an image of the partition from which the operating system is running.
5 Install Mac OS X on the slave partition.
6 The Mac should now have two partitions: master and slave, each with Mac OS X installed.
Step 4: Create a Mac OS X disk image.
To create a Mac OS X disk image:
1 Boot from the slave partition (press the Alt key while restarting the Mac).
2 Run the System Image Utility (SIU), which is located in the /Applications/Server folder.
3 In the left pane, select the master partition as the source. In the right pane, select the
NetRestore Image option. Click Continue.
