That will reconfigure the MTFTP service path that Altiris uses to push out files from the Altiris supplied MTFTP to our Open TFTP server. Sc config "Altiris PXE MTFTP Server" binpath= "D:\Deployment Server\PXE\OpenTFTP\OpenTFTPServerMT.exe" The following is based on our Altiris setup, with it installed on D drive and me creating a folder under PXE for OpenTFTP and pasting the OpenTFTP executable and Settings file into that folder. You will also need to copy over your Settings file.įirstly, open up the Services control applet and Stop the Altiris PXE MTFTP Server service. Download it and install it either on your Altiris Server or like I did, on my workstation and then copy it over to your server. I’ll be using the Open Source Open TFTP Server, available from. I was also going to cover compressing the WinPE image to reduce its file size, but found thatwhen doing so, the reduction in size was minimal shaving off around 10mb. My own testing has shown that 10 Clients concurrently loading a WinPE image do it around 45-50% faster using another TFTP Server than if I was to continue using Altiris’s own server. This sounds quite difficult but is quite easy to accomplish and is a significant benefit. This simple tweak shaves around a second off your PXE Boot time.Īnother tweak which can be performed is changing the TFTP Server itself.
First of all, open up the PXE Configuration Manager and disable Multicast since the WinPE image cannot be transferred over Multicast anyway(only DOS supports Multicast via TFTP). One of the more easier ways of speeding up your WinPE boot times via PXE are changing the default TFTP server which comes with Altiris.
