■ Deployments can be configured to generate a log file for each installation. Network administrators can use these log files for troubleshooting. Planning a Deployment Check Deployment Readiness This checklist identifies preliminary tasks to complete, information to gather, and decisions to make before creating a network deployment. TIP To review deployment settings, including details of product configuration, you can create a test deployment. After the learning process, you can delete the test deployment. Deployment Checklist Review the system requirements by clicking the System Requirements link in the installer. Confirm that your network, servers, and client computers meet these system requirements.
