Template configuration x64

[hpzech]

Hello

We create a template with following parameters "MS Windows2003 SP2 x64" and it works.

Only one point I don't understand, when I deloy it, I don't get the possibilities to use the

"custome settings". We have also W2003 SP2 X32" and on this a get this possibilities.

Where is the difference? or what was wrong during the installation?

Thanks for every hints

Regards

The custom settings allow you to modify the VM to whatever you want. A template is for many VM's but occassionaly you may want 1 or 2 VM's built slightly different, without setting up a completely different customization or template.

Hello

How is the way to active the "customize settings", that I can use it?

During the installation I could not remember that there was a different to the x32 OS Version, concering

"customize settings".

Thanks and Regard

I don't think 32-bit is any different than 64-bit. I haven't actually done a 64-bit template myself, since we don't really develop for 64-bit, but I haven't read anything to imply you have to do it differently.

They should be the same.

You can not currently sysprep a Windows 2003 x64 server using the customization option, which is why you do not get the option to customize settings.
