Hey All (sorry if I posted in the wrong section),
I was wondering what some other institutions use in terms of imaging their hardware and apple releasing later builds of that hardware which require new images?
EX: We order Apple hardware frequently and our latest iMac image was made on a 10.8.3 late 2012 iMac. We just received a new shipment of late 2013 iMacs and now I have to go and create a whole new image since the old one won't work on this machine.
Is there a more efficient way of creating images/updating them without having to start from scratch each time they release a new major build? I know the OSX server has the ability to create/restore images but does it allow you to update certain aspects of an image (let's say just update the version from 10.8.3 to 10.8.5)?
