When specifying user workstation settings

Page 51 highlights

The Network log file keeps a record of all workstations that run the deployment. The log lists the user name, workstation name, and the status of the installation. Refer to this file for status information and details about problems that users may have encountered during installation. The Client log file contains detailed installation information for each workstation. This information may be useful in diagnosing installation problems. The client log is located in the \Temp directory of each client workstation. When specifying user workstation settings, I'm given the option to specify a profile.What are profiles? Profiles are created on the Profiles tab of the Options dialog box. Profiles can contain configuration settings for just about anything that is not a drawing based system variable. For example, a profile can contain things like support paths, grip settings, and plot settings. When you specify a profile on the Specify User Preferences page during the deployment process, it ensures that all workstations that use that deployment to install the product will be configured the same way. Can I create custom desktop shortcuts? You can choose to create custom desktop shortcuts that use command line switches to specify several options when you start the program. For example, command line switches can be set to run a script during program launch, create a drawing based on a template or prototype drawing, or designate a workspace that should be restored on startup. For more information, see Customize Startup. What happens when you choose to append or merge service packs? When you append a service pack, the service pack is applied to the current deployment only. Multiple service packs may be appended to a deployment. The service pack file is included in the deployment and the service pack is applied after the product is deployed.
