What We Will Cover• MDT Basics• Images• Network Deployments• Automation• Customization• What’s new to MDT 2012
![Page 6: Deployment Day Session 1: Introduction to MDT 2012](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022051513/546762aeaf79594f578b63e4/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Windows Image Formats• There are two– Windows Image• .Wim
– Virtual hard disk• .Vhd
![Page 7: Deployment Day Session 1: Introduction to MDT 2012](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022051513/546762aeaf79594f578b63e4/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
.Wim Compared to .Vhd• .Wim
– Contain a single volume (c: d: e:)– Multiple images may be stored in a single .wim file– Single instancing– No redundant file storage– Service image offline– Apply patches quick and easily
• .Vhd– Contain an entire hard drive (multiple volumes)• Service image offline
![Page 8: Deployment Day Session 1: Introduction to MDT 2012](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022051513/546762aeaf79594f578b63e4/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Three Types of Images:• Thick images contain an OS and all applications
– More difficult to make changes to later
• Thin images usually contain only the OS– Applications are deployed after the OS
• Group Policy deployment• MDT 2010 U1• Manually
• Hybrid images contain OS and corporate approved applications– Like line of business (LOB) applications created in-house

Deployment Scenarios• Bare Metal
– No OS or wipe existing OS
• Refresh– Keep existing computers, change the OS
• Replace– New computers
• Upgrade• Migrat

Over Time You Will Have Multiple Images To Deploy:
• Multiple OSs– Windows Server 2008 R2– Windows 7 SP1 base DVD– Windows 7 custom Hybrid .wim image
• Drivers for different models of machines• Applications for different groups of users• So you will need a way to group components together for a
specific deployment• This is called a Task Sequence
![Page 16: Deployment Day Session 1: Introduction to MDT 2012](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022051513/546762aeaf79594f578b63e4/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Task Sequences• Single image for deployment• Each task can deploy the same hybrid
image• With different applications

The Master Image
• Deploy the Reference image and create a .wim image• This .wim image is the “Master” image• No need to answer all those questions
– Automate the build process– Choose the pages of the deployment wizard you want to see– Help on variables to add to these files:
• Help• Microsoft Deployment Toolkit Reference
– Properties– Property Definitions

Notes From The Field• Why not deploy the reference image to your
clients• Time• 3+ hours to deploy the reference image and
create a master image• 20 – 25 minutes to deploy the master image

NEW TO MDT 2012
![Page 25: Deployment Day Session 1: Introduction to MDT 2012](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022051513/546762aeaf79594f578b63e4/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
SCCM & MDT 2012• Aligned more closely with Config Manager 2012
– New Terminology• Advertise = Deploy• Packages can either be optional or mandatory
– Optional = available– Mandatory = required
• When to expect the new products– Beta 2 – available now– RTM after Config Manager 2012 ships
![Page 26: Deployment Day Session 1: Introduction to MDT 2012](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022051513/546762aeaf79594f578b63e4/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
New Features• New Deployment Wizard• Deploy .vhd images• Supports deploying ThinPC and POSReady
– ThinPC – basic Win7• Citrix or Terminal Services client
– POSReady• Point of Sales – cash registers
• Cross platform deployment– 32 bit WinPE can deploy 32 or 64 bit OSs
![Page 27: Deployment Day Session 1: Introduction to MDT 2012](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022051513/546762aeaf79594f578b63e4/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
More New Features• Diagnosis and Recovery Toolset (DART)
– Allows remote control of target machines in WinPE phase
• Monitor deployments• Properties of the deployment share are streamlined• Image factory – create .wim or .vhd
– Vhd can be deployed via Virtual Machine Manager as templates to create new virtual machines

Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI)
• Full support of UEFI– Intels replacement for PC BIOS– Offers support for GUID partition tables (GPT)
• MBR partition tables restricted disk partition sizes to a maximum of 2.19 TB
• MBR supports only 4 partitions– 4 primary– 3 primary and 1 extended (break it up into logicals)
• GPT allows a maximum disk and partition size of 9.4 ZB– 1 zettabyte = 1 billion terabytes– Supports upto 128 volumes

512 Byte – 4K Misalignment• Legacy drives support 512-byte
physical sectors • OSs use 4K logical block sizes– virtual memory pages & file systems like
NTFS

Sector Overhead• Data
– Data
• ID Information– identify each sector by number and location
• a single bit is used to indicate if the sector has been marked defective
• Synchronization Fields– Where do I go to find the next piece of a file
• Error Correcting Code (ECC)– ensure data integrity
• Gaps or spacers– separate sector areas and gives the controller time to process what has been read before moving on
to process more data

What’s The Problem? The Fix• The result is performance is degraded– 10% – 30%
• The fix is for hardware and OSs to both read at a 4K sector size
• 4K sector sizes are not supported for XP• But they are in WinPE 3.0
