FAQs

What is a Deployment Share in MDT?

In MDT, a Deployment Share is a repository or a network share where you store operating system images, application packages, drivers, and scripts. It’s a central location where MDT accesses and stores resources needed for the deployment process.

The Deployment Share is configured through the Deployment Workbench. It is a crucial component for creating and deploying custom Windows images.

How Can I Add Drivers to MDT for Deployment?

Adding drivers to MDT involves importing the drivers into the Deployment Workbench. Here are the steps:
– Open the Deployment Workbench.
– Navigate to the “Out-of-Box Drivers” node.
– Right-click and choose “Import Drivers.”
– Follow the wizard, pointing to the location of the driver files.
– Organize drivers into folders if needed (e.g., by hardware model etc).
– Update the Deployment Share to include the new drivers.

What is Lite Touch and Zero Touch Deployment in MDT?

Lite Touch Deployment (LTI): In LTI, the deployment process involves interaction with the end-user or technician. MDT provides a wizard-driven interface where the user can choose options and configure settings during deployment. This is used for small-scale or user-driven deployments.

Zero Touch Deployment (ZTI): ZTI is a more automated deployment process where user interaction is minimized. The goal is to deploy operating systems and applications with minimal manual intervention. System Center Configuration Manager (SCCM) can be integrated for ZTI deployments.
