If the operating system is supported, you can create operating system gold images from your own operating system installation media using utilities that Unisys provides:
Customer-Supplied OS Toolkit for Windows
Use this toolkit to create operating system gold images from Microsoft Windows image (.wim) files, available on Windows operating system installation media that you obtain from your operating system vendor (for example, a DVD), or a previously created custom Microsoft Windows image file. The .wim file is used to create an image that may be uploaded to the Fabric Manager with a paired blueprint image.
Customer-Supplied OS Toolkit for Linux
Use this toolkit to create operating system gold images from existing instances of Linux operating systems. The configured operating system instance and installed application stack (if supported) is used to create an image that may be uploaded to the Fabric Manager with a paired blueprint image.
When you wish to commission a partition image that uses your operating system gold image, select the paired blueprint during commissioning.
Copies of the toolkits are available from the /Unisys/Tools/ directory on the Fabric Management Platform. To download a copy to your local workstation: Access the Fabric Management Platform, locate the /Unisys/Tools/ directory, and then download the appropriate toolkit to your local workstation.
The latest versions of the toolkits are also available from the Unisys Product Support website.
