What should I do before deploying the Fixlets?
• Ensure that there is sufficient disk space on target endpoints. Microsoft requires the following hard disk space: 16 GB for 32-bit OS and 20 GB for 64-bit OS hard disk space (Check Windows 10 System Requirements & Specs | Microsoft).
• Check the .iso file size and if needed, increase your endpoints’ pre-cache and normal download limits using the following configuration settings:
_BESClient_Download_PreCacheStageDiskLimitMB
_BESClient_Download_NormalStageDiskLimitMB
Generally, the size of the free disk on the BES client machine is at least twice the size of the downloaded file.
• You have the option to use a custom repository from which the Windows 10 ISO image is downloaded.
