2) Copy the boot.wim file from the original location, and replace the boot.wim file located in %CCP_HOME%\data\...
3) Open the HPC Cluster Manager
4) On the 'Configuration' tab, select the 'Configure your network' To-do List entry
5) Change your network topology (to something other than what you actually have, such as 'public only') and complete the wizard.
6) Select the 'Configure your network' entry, and set your network topology back to the appropriate selection and complete the wizard.
7) Your boot.wim file will now be repaired. Ensure that you have applied this update so that it does not grow excessively again.
