Remote Installation Services in Windows Server 2003 supported the installation of Windows Server 2003 Itanium-based editions using RISETUP. With Windows Server 2003 SP1, Remote Installation Services now supports the deployment of both RISETUP and RIPREP images for the x64 architecture.

There are two methods for adding operating system images to a Remote Installation Services (RIS) computer – RISETUP and RIPREP. RISETUP images are images built from the Windows CD media. When adding the images, a path to the Windows setup files, either on CD or on a network share, must be specified. RISETUP images are generally added by one of three methods:

• Using the Remote Installation Services Setup option from the Start menu of the RIS server. To start Remote Installation Services Setup, click Start, point to Programs, point to Administrative Tools, and then click Add a new OS image to this remote installation server.
  
  


• Using the Add a new installation image option available from the Properties tab of the RIS server in the Active Directory Users and Computers Microsoft Management Console (MMC) snap-in.
  
  


• Running the RISETUP /add command from a command prompt on the RIS server.
  
  

RIPREP-generated images are also file system based images located on a RIS server. However, unlike RISETUP images, RIPREP images more closely resemble the hard disk images created using a third-party disk-imaging tool and the Windows System Preparation tool (Sysprep). RIPREP images are created by running the RIPREP wizard (Riprep.exe) on a master computer that has the operating system configuration, applications and settings, and desktop customizations that are to be captured and deployed to client computers in the organization.

With the changes in Windows Server 2003 SP1, RISETUP and RIPREP images created for x64-based operating systems can be deployed from a RIS server of any architecture – be that a 32-bit operating system, an x64-based operating system, or an Itanium-based operating system.

This change enables the rapid deployment of x64-based versions of Windows Server 2003 and Windows XP throughout an enterprise by leveraging Remote Installation Services (RIS) as the image deployment mechanism.

In order to support x64-based RIPREP and RISETUP images, several pieces of functionality were added to Remote Installation Services (RIS).
