Chapter 7. Creating maps
This chapter provides basic information about creating base maps and driver maps
as well as how to define the settings associated with each. For additional
information, refer to the ImageUltra Builder help system.
Creating and modifying base maps
Base maps control which operating systems, applications, and utilities are
deployed as part of a Smart Image. The tree structure of a base map varies
depending on the type of image or images contained in the map and the needs of
your organization. You must create a map module before you can construct the
map tree structure. For detailed information about constructing the map tree
structure, see Chapter 6, “Map construction overview,” on page 77.
Creating a new base map
This procedure describes how to create a new base map without using an existing
base map as a template. To create a new base map, complete the following
procedure:
1. Open the repository where you want the new base map to reside.
2. If your repository contains folders, navigate to the folder where you want the
new base map to reside.
3. From the Main window menu bar, click Insert and then click Base Map... . The
New Map Wizard opens.
4. Click Next .
5. Verify that the Base Map radio button is selected, and then click Next .
6. In the Name field, type the name you want to use to identify your new base
map. Be as specific as possible. This name will be used to identify your base
map in the repository.
7. Click Next .
8. Click Next without selecting any maps.
9. If you want the target computer to do a network-sync operation (check for
updated maps before installation), click the Yes radio button; if not, click the
No radio button.
10. Click Next .
11. Do one of the following:
v If after installation you want the service partition of the target computer to
contain the complete Smart Image, click the Delete none radio button.
v If after installation you want the service partition of the target computer to
contain only the maps and modules required to recreate the installed image,
click the Delete unused radio button.
v If after installation you do not want any maps or modules contained in the
service partition of the target computer, click the Delete all radio button.
12. Click Next .
13. Click Finish . The New Map Wizard closes and the Base Map window opens.
