When an imaging action is initiated, an XML file containing the Imaging action (Apply or Capture Image), Imaging Server name, and FICAgent user password is created in the Windows Temp folder. The Imaging utility parses this file and prepares the machines for the specified imaging action by communicating with the Shared folder on the Imaging Server and copying the boot.wim file to the machine.
When the Imaging task fails, detailed logs are created under the Windows Temp folder and copied to Imaging Server Network share under a specific folder.
Once the machine RAM boots in the WinPE, it again communicates with the network share folder on the Imaging Server.
When performing Apply Image, a shared network folder is required to fetch the actual image (install.wim).
When performing Capture Image, a shared network folder is required to copy the captured image onto the shared network folder.
During WinPE Mode, ImagingHelper.exe is run from drive X (the RAM Drive). The ImagingHelper.log is also created under drive X and copied to C: under the Windows Temp folder.
