How fast should landesk image? I am only talking about the image copy process speeds not including sysprep and all of that. I have our landesk servers and share’s running at 10 GB. I have tried doing file copies from the image share to the PXE environment and I usually cap out around 75% utilization or 77 MB/second on the desktop and 7.78% on the server. When I run the LANDesk OSD process using Imagew V2, I get speeds closer to 1.4% on the server and 10% network utilization on the desktop. This is a LOT slower speed than file copy alone. I realize there is a lot more going on than just coping a file. I can use ghost or acronis and get much faster speeds. Is this as fast as we can get? Is there a setting to change the compression rate or anything that would speed up the image process? I am not multicasting.
Thanks
