Hi everyone,
I have a situation where I need to keep an Altiris Deployment Console (rebranded by HP0 and its PXE services, but also add MS SCCM 2007 PXE for OS deployment services (PXE service point) in the same subnet. I'm thinking that I could create multiple PE images which point to different TFTP servers. Or is there a way that I can multiple PXE Servers and pick which one to use?
Thanks,
Ben

You can tweek the SCCM 2007 boot image so that you can add it to the Altiris PXE server. Not supported by Microsoft, but works great...

Using WDS to deploy SCCM images without the SCCM PSP Integration

Pardon my lack of knowledge, but if I read this correctly...I generate the iso boot image via SCCM (which will have the reference points to the SCCM server), extract the files on the iso, add the directory you indicate in your documentation to the WIM file. Then copy the new wim to the altiris server, create a new PXE boot image based on the SCCM wim, name it appropriately and force the Altiris PXE server to list usable boot images to allow me to select the one which points to the SCCM server?
