-
On the client computer, under the image store directory, create a folder for the pre-staging image, and name it MED-V Images.
Note This folder must be called MED-V Images.
-
Inside the MED-V Images folder, create a subfolder and name it PrestagedImages.
Note This folder must be called PrestagedImages.
-
To apply Access Control Lists (ACL) security to the MED-V Images folder, set the following ACL:
NT AUTHORITY\Authenticated Users:(OI)(CI)(special access:)
READ_CONTROL
SYNCHRONIZE
FILE_GENERIC_READ
FILE_READ_DATA
** FILE_APPEND_DATA**
FILE_READ_EA
FILE_READ_ATTRIBUTES
