The Prestage form will appear with any available options.  

Prestage OS: Units that have had the option to build with the Windows 11 OS will have 2 "Prestage OS" options available.  Select the OS that you plan to use on the machine you are building. Windows 10 will be the default OS option for MiWorkspace and PaaS systems until June 2, 2023.  After June 2, 2023, the default MiWorkspace OS will be Windows 11.  The Windows 11 OS is only available to specific Units 


Build Type: MiWorkspace Systems that support @Home builds provide a Build Type option in the Prestage form that lets you indicate that you are prestaging for a conventional Task Sequence (OSD) build, or for an MDM (mobile device management) @Home build.  Choose   PaaS systems will only have the Task Sequence option for the Build Type. Choose the appropriate option:

Note: The Prestage options will also let you choose if you want to clear the Admin and RDP Users on the machine.  This option is checked by default and especially important when building a machine that will be changing owners (trickle-down, loaner, shared machine, etc.).  If you are rebuilding an existing machine for the same customer, there is no need to clear the existing Admin and RDP Users.

  • The Prestage takes anywhere from 20-30 seconds.  
  • You don't need to refresh the page to see its progress.  
  • Otto will show an animated activity bar while the prestage runs.  When it's complete, you'll see the "Last Prestaged" time stamp updated with the current date & time.


During the task sequence, External Events are posted to the system record in Otto so that you can monitor the status.  These can be viewed by clicking Events link under Actions.
