2 Understanding Acronis Snap Deploy 5
This section describes the components of the Acronis Snap Deploy 5 infrastructure and their
interaction.
2.1 Terminology
The following table lists the common terms and descriptions used in this document.
The system to be deployed.
A file that contains the master system in a packaged form. The file has the .tib
extension.
Taking a master image while the master system is in a production state (the operating
system is running on the master machine).
Taking an image while the master machine is booted into the Acronis environment or
Windows Preinstallation Environment.
Transferring the operating system, applications, and data from the master image file to
a physical hard disk (see “Target disk”). In most cases, deployment is performed by
multicasting the master image through the network.
Deployment to a machine isolated from a network or included in a network without
Acronis Snap Deploy 5 infrastructure. Stand-alone deployment is performed locally by
using a bootable component of Acronis Snap Deploy 5.
The physical disk to be deployed to (an internal hard disk of the target machine).
The hardware to perform deployment to.
Deployment template
(Template)
Configuration parameters of the deployment operation:
Path to the master image
The operation mode, such as whether to use multicast or unicast and how to handle
the target disk free space
Settings to be applied to the deployed systems, such as machine names and user
accounts
Operations to be performed on the deployed systems, such as transferring files,
running applications, shutting down, or restarting
Once you save a deployment template, you can use it in the future.
