HostPrep accepts a command line flags that control its behavior:
u-y do not ask for confirmation; default is to prompt before continuing
u-yes same as ‘-y’
u-guid deletes the HostID only, but does not prepare the settings
u-restart restarts the Host Service when compute; should only be used with ‘-guid’
To prepare an installation for imaging, run hostprep.exe with no arguments, and press the “y” key when prompted. To delete the HostID on the local computer and cause a new one to be assigned immediately, run the command line “hostprep.exe –guid –restart”. HostPrep runs on all of the operating systems supported by the PC-Duo Host.
