I had to re-deploy an HP thinclient the other day, and here are the directions to do this…
Login in as a Administrator
HP ThinState Capture
Once you launch the HP ThinState Capture tool from within the Control Panel
Click Next.
At this point, attach a disk on key (DOK) to the unit. The DOK drive letter and size are displayed.
The DOK must be greater in size than the onboard flash disk. As a result, if your thin client has 512 MB Flash, then the USB flash drive must be 1 GB.
Click Capture.
Click Yes. The HP ThinState Capture tool formats and makes the USB flash drive bootable. HP ThinState Capture will now reboot the system.
After you perform these actions, the HP ThinState Capture tool displays the following screen.
Please follow the on-screen instructions.
You can now use the USB flash drive to deploy the captured image to another HP thin client of the exact same model and hardware with equal or greater flash size capacity.
HP ThinState Deploy
To perform an HP ThinState deployment:
1. Set the boot order in the F10 System BIOS to USB boot.
2. Attach the USB flash drive to the thin client unit you wish to deploy the captured image to, and then power on the unit.
3. Follow the on-screen instructions.
