Chapter 3 Setting Up NetBoot Service 47
http://server_ip/NetBoot/NetBootSPn/image_path.nbi
Where server_ip is the IP address of the server, n is the volume number, and
image_path is the path to the image.
e Click OK.
2 Copy the image (.dmg) file from the .nbi folder on the NetBoot server to a shared
(exported) directory on the other server. Leave the .nbi folder and the other files it
contains on the NetBoot server.
You can also copy the image to the other server by selecting the image in the Images
pane of System Image Utility, clicking Export, and selecting the .dmg file to export.
Using the Export button is the safest way to copy the image to the other server
because it ensures that the image has the proper permissions.
If the image is already on the remote server, you can create the .nbi folder on the
NetBoot server by duplicating an existing .nbi folder and adjusting the values in its
NBImageInfo.plist file.
Moving Images to Other Servers
Use the Export feature of System Image Utility to move images to another server,
including servers without displays or keyboards.
To copy an image to another server:
1 Open System Image Utility and click Images.
2 Select the image in the list and click Export, and provide the target information.
Important: To avoid problems with file permissions, don’t use Terminal or the Finder to
copy boot or install images across the network to other servers.
Deleting Images
When you delete images, System Image Utility only moves them to the Trash and
doesn’t erase them from the drive.
To delete an image:
1 Open System Image Utility and click Images.
2 Select the image in the list and choose Edit > Delete.
