Mac imaging
Adding Share credentials to the source keychain
Adding Share credentials to the source keychain
You add Share credentials to the source keychain to ensure that no user interaction
is required during imaging. The credentials to network file shares are stored
within the automation image. These credentials are made accessible to the
automation agent through the system Keychain application.
This task is a step in the process of creating and deploying a Mac OS X automation
image.
See “Creating a Mac OS X automation image” on page 178.
To add Share credentials to the source keychain
1
On the eXpress share in the \TechSup\Macintosh folder on the Deployment
Server copy the AddCredentialsToKeychain utility to the source computer.
2
If you changed the logging path when you converted the Darwin ADLagent
to an automation role, you must enter credentials to the Deployment Server.
Otherwise, logs are not saved in the eXpress share.
To enter credentials, extract and run AddCredentialsToKeychain.app and
provide all the requested information.
Note that an AppleTalk Filing Protocol (AFP) share must be used for the
storage of image files. Neither the eXpress share nor its subfolders is a valid
target for Mac image files.

At the prompts click Allow or Allow All.
Capturing the source image
After you configure the source OS, you must capture it as a disk image. This step
prepares the OS to be converted to a NetBoot image.
You perform this task in the Terminal on the Mac client. The Mac client is the
source of the image that you need to capture.
This task is a step in the process of creating and deploying a Mac OS X automation
image.
