Carbon Copy Cloner Imaging

We have implemented a CCC imaging system at Vancouver Talmud Torah now.
 
There are now a few simple steps to creating a new image for deployment.
 
  1. Make the necessary modifications to an iMac then reboot in target disk mode
  2. Rename the HD of another iMac and create an image of the firewire mounted "Macintosh HD" to a DMG on the desktop
  3. When the DMG has been created, drag it into Disk Utility, select the image, then choose the images menu, and "Scan for Restore"
  4. When this process has completed, copy it to the SP0Images share on the server, rename to VTTBlack.dmg
  5. Using Apple Remote Desktop, set the startup disk on all computers to network, and check the "reboot when complete" box.
  6. Thats it! Imaging takes about 2 TB of network traffic, so be patient...
