<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">This release is an update of the existing
site. A new 3.2 MDT Bundle may be created to take advantage of the new
functionality. This can be downloaded using Fixlet 46 in the site. No immediate
actions are required and the current product will continue to function

should be updated as soon as possible to TPMfOSD 7.1.1 Fixpack 13 in order
to use many of the new features. Tivoli Provisioning Manager for OS Deployment
can be downloaded from FixCentral. If in an airgap environment or proxy
