Article: 20000029
Applies to: Release 3.82 or greater
Additional steps are required to install the Deployment Web Console on a Deployment Server
running Windows Server 2008. During the RDP installation, the Deployment Web Console selections will be
available when the Deployment Server is Windows Server 2008 x86, even if the below "Before RDP installation"
steps are not completed. However, the Web Server Console will not be available. For the x86 operating system,
these steps can be completed after the RDP installation. For the x64 operating system, these steps must be
completed before the RDP installation, in order for the Deployment Web Console selections to be available.
