Example embodiments relate to distribution of a profile from a server to a client. In example embodiments, a server enables an administrator or other user to embed a file into a profile, where the profile is a structured document including the file and a storage location for the file on the client. The server may then transmit the profile to the client, which, upon receipt of the profile, may extract the embedded file from the structured document to a storage location on the client specified in the profile.

Example embodiments relate to downloading a disk image from a server while reducing the corruption window. In example embodiments, a computing device writes a recovery image to a portion of a primary storage device. The computing device may then write the disk image to the primary storage device until a portion of the disk image corresponding to the recovery image remains. Next, the computing device may write the remaining portion of the disk image to a secondary storage location. Finally, the computing device may overwrite the recovery image using the remaining portion of the disk image from the secondary storage location.
