PXE Objects
Overview
PXE Objects are limited records added to Landesk inventory when a computer PXE boots from the Landesk PXE rep. When you network boot a computer, if that computer is not already in Landesk inventory, Landesk will create a new entry in inventory with the mac address of the computer as the device name. When you select a provisioning template in WinPE, Landesk creates a scheduled task and targets the the PXE object of the computer you are network booting.
