The Deployment Guys

Excellent demonstration - thanks for your hard work Richard

A very nice video guys. Congrats!

Can we have the same where we can see in depth an MDT ZTI installation where data is gathered out CS.ini and AdminCoreDB.

And what the best way is to boot via PXE for unknown clients

Tnx! Nico

Thanks Richard for the video.

Can we have something similar regarding a ZTI installation where data gets gathered out of the AdminCoreDB and CS.ini?

Something that is showing what is the best way to boot unknown clients and what kind security that can be applied for this. To avoid unauthorized clients will get a re-installation.

Today I use "Install Flag" in the AdminDB for this. Is this still possible?

Tnx

Nico

ConfigMgr 2007 and Microsoft Deployment Toolkit - Video Walkthrough Are you struggling with setting up

Really really awesome video...

Excellent demonstration, this will help allot of people who are confused about how MDT intetracts with SCCM.

I'm interested in discovering how to have SCCM or BDD deploy images to unknown computers. (Bare metal builds). Is this something that either of these products can do? I have a fully working SCCM enviroment.

Cheers,

Josh

Great video and I'm very happy to hear and see Microsoft doing the step-by-step documentation approach and quick start guides. I'm not quite ready to push out Vista even with SP1 so I'd love to see you do a video with XP (possibly SP3?).  

Very nice presentation. Thank you and thank you.

I used the step-by-step solution accelerator guide for SCCM07 and when I go through the create the Task Sequence I get "Error while importing Micrsoft Deployment Toolkit Task Sequence. Details: The ConfigMgr Provider reported an error. Then the following is in the smsprov.log:

Please help. This seems like a wonderful product and I am desperate to see it in action!

Richard,

I was introduced to your demo/presentation videos at TecED last year. I must say I was very impressed with the quality and time you have put into these. Many thanks.

Dan V.

This video is very usefull and worth.

Very well done,

thanks

The link to the media file does not seem to be working.  I've tried in two locations and it says that the server is unavailable?

Hi Ben - Thanks for the quick reply. I'm about to lose my mind and go back to Ghost imaging if I can't get this figured out. So frustrating. I reloaded everything from scratch again and I still get stuck, but at a different spot. It copies the .wim image to \\WDG-MDT-01\Packages$\Vista\install.wim which takes a few minutes to complete. After it hits 100% I immediately get the error. In looking in the smsprov.log I show the following at this point:

(What is it not finding?) My shares all have the same perms - Everyone - READ, Admins - FULL.

Thanks again Ben. I really wish I knew what file it was trying to find. I gave SYSTEM full control. I even gave EVERYONE full rights to all drives and still get the same error at the same spot after copying the install.wim.

Hi,

I can't donwload that file. Any idea?

Almost a month and I still can't get this to work. Is this product supported by Microsoft? If I call Professional Support Services would they be able to diagnose my problem? Can anyone offer a consultant that would work on this with me?

Thanks Rich -  I have an EA with Microsoft. I'll try that route. I was hoping to find a quick answer. It's now going on 2 months and still unable to create the results of a "Solution Accelerator" by following it step-by-step. I would hate to see the results if it wasn't an "accelerator". Do they have people test their steps in their documentation. Am I the only one who has tried using this documenation?

Really a great and an amazing work delivered.

Thanks a lot.

"Failed to get the image property from the source WIM file due to error 80070002"

Were you ever able to resolve this issue?

I get the same error!

"Failed to get the image property from the source WIM file due to error 80070002"

Please help!

Thanks a lot this is an excellent video

Hi ben,

I was struggling with this problem since two days and just found that the problem is with permissions. It does not matter what account you are using. The system use the NT Authority\System account for local system shares. If you add NT Authority\System account in all your shares and give it full access, everything work fine. Hope this help.

Cheers

GREAT VIDEO!!!

Can you please check the downloadable files.  When I download them, it tells me that the files are corrupt or is empty.

Thanks,

I cant see why you are making this so easy because I have tried to make it work for tree weeks now, but cant fifure how to deploy the xp os to the client computer.

Hello,

I am installing sccm 2007 on a server that is not connected to the internet. Is there a way to do this as it seems like it tries to download some stuff when I try installing it.

I am also using the eval version as I am a tester before my company purchases it.

Very nice video. Lots of usefull information without a sales pitch. I have two questions:

1) How is this process different for customers that need to continue supporting Windows XP and Windows Server 2003?

2) Can you create a boot image based on Windows PE 1.x? This could be really important for customers who have hardware with only Windows XP/Server 2003 drivers but no Windows Vista/Server 2008 drivers.

3) If you create a BUILD/CAPTURE solution (WIM file, tasks, etc) in MDT, can all of this be imported into SCCM, or do you need to re-create the BUILD/CAPTURE in SCCM?

4) I'm still a little fuzzy on the relationship between MDT and SCCM. Am I correct that MDT extends and enhances the basic functionality of SCCM? What happens as MDT continues to evolve/change (e.g. MDT 2010)? If an older/existing version of MDT has been integrated and a newer version of MDT has been released, does the first version of MDT need to be un-installed/un-integrated?

Thanks.

Please can i get document on OSD

Shailesh.agarwals@hotmail.com

Hi the video is really good but to follow it while configuring my SCCM server I would need to download the video so I can pause and skip to sections easily.

Can you please fix the link to download the video from your skydrive?

Thanks

Great demonstration. I tried the same process having capturing an XP image but get an error when trying the drivers to the package. Everything else seems to work fine. Of course with no drivers PXE boot becomes a problem. No nic drivers

Outstanding demonstration. I learned a big deal out of it.

Thanks a lot Richard

Outstanding video!!!  Thanks Richard.  You are very thorough.

Thanks a lot for that amazing video!!

If Microsoft would have done this they could safe about 50% of meaningless support pages...
