Deployment tools

Before deployment, each target machine must boot into a dedicated bootable component of Acronis Snap Deploy 4. An example of such component is Acronis Snap Deploy 4 Agent.

The machine can boot into the component in either of these ways:

• From a physical media (such as a DVD or a USB drive) that contains the component. Such media is called a bootable media.
• Over the network, by using Acronis PXE Server with the component uploaded to it.

This section describes how to create a bootable media or configure the PXE server.
