Abstract

Examples of methods and apparatus are provided for automatic retrieval, parsing and application of configuration for a specific-purpose local client having a windows-based embedded image with a write-filter while obviating reinstallation of an entire windows-based embedded image onto the local client and while allowing persistent configuration change across a reboot. The apparatus may include a retrieval module of the local client configured to, each time the local client boots up, automatically locate a remote repository server containing a configuration file and automatically obtain the configuration file from the repository server over a network. The apparatus may include an apply settings module of the local client configured to, each time the local client boots up, automatically load the configuration file, automatically parse at least a portion of the configuration file, and automatically apply, to the embedded image, a configuration change based on the at least a portion of the configuration file.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims US 61 / 436, 842, filed January 27, 2011, entitled "AUTOMATIC RETRIEVAL, PARSING AND APPLICATION OF CONFIGURATION FOR A SPECIFIC-PURPOSE CLIENT HAVING A WINDOWS-BASED EMBEDDED IMAGE WITH A WRITE-FILTER" Priority of the Provisional Patent Application, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. technical field [0003] The subject technology relates generally to configuration management, and more specifically to automatically recovering, analyzing, and applying configurations for special-purpose clients having Windows-based embedded images with write filters in them. Background technique [0004] In order for a client device with an embedded image to apply changes that persist across reboots of the client device, manual installation of software or drivers, and / or a firmware upgrade of the entire image may be required. This process can include downloading a custom image, and installi...
