8 Preface About This Guide
 As of Mac OS X Server 10.4.4, you can create, maintain, and serve disk images for
Intel-based Macintosh computers. You can also specify default NetBoot images for
both Intel-based and PowerPC-based Macintosh clients. You must update to the
latest Server Admin Tools and have Mac OS X 10.4.4 or later in order to create
architecture-specific images using System Image Utility. Use Software Update to
ensure that you have the latest version.
What’s in This Guide
This guide is organized as follows:
 Part I—System Imaging Administration. “The chapters in this part of the guide
introduce you to system imaging and the applications and tools available for
administering system imaging services.”
 Part II—Software Update Administration. “The chapters in this part of this guide
introduce you to the software update service and the applications and tools available
for administering the software update service.”
Note: Because Apple frequently releases new versions and updates to its software,
images shown in this book may be different from what you see on your screen.
Using Onscreen Help
You can view instructions and other useful information that appear in this and other
documents in the server suite by using onscreen help.
On a computer running Mac OS X Server, you can access onscreen help after opening
Workgroup Manager or Server Admin. From the Help menu, choose one of the options:
 Workgroup Manager Help or Server Admin Help displays information about the
application.
 Mac OS X Server Help displays the main server help page, from which you can search
or browse for server information.
 Documentation takes you to www.apple.com/server/documentation, from which you
can download server documentation.
You can also access onscreen help from the Finder or other applications on a server or
on an administrator computer. (An administrator computer is a Mac OS X computer
with server administration software installed on it.) Use the Help menu to open the
Help Viewer, and then click Library > Mac OS X Server Help.
To see the latest server help topics, make sure the server or administrator computer is
connected to the Internet while you’re using the Help Viewer. The Help Viewer
automatically retrieves and caches the latest server help topics from the Internet.
When not connected to the Internet, the Help Viewer displays cached help topics.
