System Center 2012 - Managing Operating Systems Deployment (MOC10747.S11)

Description

You can use the operating system deployment feature in System Center 2012 R2 Configuration Manager to create hard drive images that you can deploy to unmanaged computers and those that Configure Manager manages. There are several scenarios in which you can deploy operating systems by using Configuration Manager, including when you are working with new systems or when you are upgrading existing ones. Operating system deployment uses both Configuration Manager and Windows® components to manage and deliver operating system images. You can configure settings on a reference computer prior to capturing an image of its hard drive or by using task sequences that Configuration Manager creates after you deploy the image to a target system.
