Smart Windows Deployment Build Process – Overview
The Smart Windows Deployment (SWD) build process is created and delivered using the ENGL Imaging Toolkit. This section of the guide describes each component of the solution.

ENGL Imaging Toolkit 5.0
This guide is based on ENGL Imaging Toolkit 5, which has three main components: Zim, Ztoolkit and Zwake. The build process uses a modular imaging process and runs through several phases, each of which is described below.

Images Universal Base Image
The universal base image is created from a Sysprep’d Unattended Windows installation. The Build Wizard will create and configure the software required to create a simple base image.
ENGL recommends that only major services packs and current Microsoft hotfixes are installed into the universal base image. Care should be taken when removing Windows components that may affect future product installations. Components such as the Novell Client, ZENworks Management Agent and business applications should not be installed into the base image.
