Installing Provisioning Services Console software

The Provisioning Services Console can be installed on any machine that can communicate with the Provisioning Services database.

The Console installation includes the Boot Device Management utility.

Note

If you are upgrading from the current product version, the Console software is removed when the Provisioning Server software is removed. Upgrading from earlier versions may not remove the Console software automatically.
