MDT2012 Beta 1 and SCCM 2012 Beta 2 OS Deployment Part IV: Installing to Target Computers
In Part I and Part II and Part III, we created the TS and the boot media and WIM image of our reference computer, now its time to deploy!!! I could created a brand new task sequence for this but that’s too much work… so we just change the reference TS and adapt it to use it to deploy to target computers J.
First we need to create a OS image package:
In the Configuration Manager console, navigate to the Software library workspace, expand the Operating Systems and select Opertating System Images, Right-click and click Add Operating System Image
The Add Operating System Image wizard starts:
Click Browse, browse to the location where you stored the captured image, and click Next
In the General screen, click Next
In the Summary screen, click Next
In the Completion screen, click Close
A Operating System Package has been created, No you need to distribute it to you DP’s!!!
Select the Image Package and click Distribute content in the Ribbon.
The Distribute Content wizard starts, click Next
Click Add and select Distribution Point
Select Your DP and click OK
In the Content Destination screen click Next
In the Summary screen click Next
In the Completion screen click Close
The OS image is created now we can edit the task sequence of our reference computer:
In the Configuration Manager console, navigate to the Software library workspace, expand the Operating Systems and select Task Sequences, Right-click Your task sequence and click edit.
In the TS Editor go to the Install group, Select Apply operating System Image, select Apply operating system from a captured image and click browse
In the Select an Operating System Image screen, select you r image and click OK
Got to Apply Network Settings, complete your domain and supply an account with access to add pc’s to the domain and click Apply
Click OK to close the Task sequence editor
You need to change your Customsettings.ini and remove the DoCaputure=YES and update your DP’s !!
Now you Can deploy your image with SCCM to all new PC’s.
