Windows Deployment Services
• Configuration Manager allows you to perform tasks such as:
• Deploying operating systems (ZTI)• Deploying software applications• Deploying software updates• Assessing variation from desired
configurations• Taking hardware and software inventory• Remotely administering computers
System Center Configuration Manager
• Deployment methods?• LTI (MDT, WDS)• ZTI (MDT, Configuration Manager)
• Deployment scenarios?• Replace• Upgrade• New Computer
• Migrate user settings?• USMT (version?)• Hard link migration?
• Windows Easy Transfer Wizard
Deployment decisions
• Main automation files:• Winpeshl.ini• Controls whether a customized shell is loaded in Windows PE instead of the default
Command Prompt window• Wpeinit.exe• Command-line tool that initializes Windows PE each time it boots. Wpeinit.exe
specifically installs PnP devices, processes Unattend.xml settings, and loads network resources.
• Unattend.xml• Windows Setup works with an unattended installation answer file to automate
online installations and customizations of Windows. • ZTIGather.xml• This file defines the variables and lists that are declared by MDT for the Gather step
of the Task Sequence • CustomSettings.ini• Holds the properties that are used in MDT deployments
Deployment Automation
• Use MDT to build “gold” images• Use MDT or Configuration Manager to
deploy images• Build in flexibility – use the MDT database• Build up the grocery list for software,
images, drivers and language packs• Deploy only what is needed of the above• Test!
