WDS for custom image deployment via PXE

I've recently spun up a 2012R2 server and I'd like to use it so I can netboot clients to it and install a custom image on the machine, no hassle.  I have figured out how to take an image from a Windows 7 install disk and add drivers to it.
However, I'm wondering the best way that I could configure an image to use that has all programs, profiles, updates, and drivers on it for a 'universal' install. Is this possible?
For example, can I have a 32-bit image that has Chrome, FireFox, and some other programs on it, complete with any drivers that might be needed for NIC and WLAN cards, graphics adapters, etc? And then a 64-bit image for the same thing. Ideally, these
would house drivers for any of our machines, so I could PXE boot a 64- or 32-bit desktop or laptop, regardless of the model (They're all one manufacturer) and have them install the image and be configured, ready to go?
I would also like to know how I could create a custom image/ISO from a machine that is already ready-to-go as a template.
Thank you for answers in advance.
If it helps, i'm on a Windows 8.1 x64 machine myself, but the machines I'd like to image are Windows 7 (both x86 and x64).

Yea.  In a nut shell:
1. Do the install and create the needless account the setup process forces you to create.
2. On first log in enable the original default Administrator account and give it a password
3. Log in with the default Administrator account.
4. Delete the local account that setup forced you to create
5. Go to Advanced system Settings --> User Profiles, and remove the profile for that account.  This is important,...this removes the registry entries for the Profile as well (just deleting the folder structure under "C:\Users" does not,
and problems can result).
6. Build your image model from this point using the original default local Administrator account.  This is the only account that Sysprep will leave on the machine when it is run. Note the machine is not a Domain Member when I am at this point. 
I only join the machine that I apply the image to when I finally deploy the machine to be used .
7. Run Sysprep on the machine to prepare it for duplication, then shutdown or reboot.  When starting up you do not want to allow it to boot into the OS or you will have to rerun Sysprep again.   You can use WDS to "capture" an image
after doing a network boot from the Nic.  You can also boot the machine using a Windows PE bootdisk and manually capture an image with ImageX (comes with WAIK for Win7).  But ImageX is commandline only and annoying,...there is a GUI alternative called
GImageX (google it). Then manually copy the captured image to the WDS Server.  Note when you capture an image,..you are only capturing the Boot Partition,...not the entire drive.
The details of all this you can sort out by studying "how to use" WDS and WAIK (Win7).  That should put you on the right track.

  • Problems with *.zmg Image deploy via PXE

    Hi all,
    I am currently faced with the following problem unfortunately:
    We use ZCM pre boot (pxe) to image our clients with a windows7.zmg image which was configured with sysprep.
    The image is created on a PC, which has a 300GB HDD. The windows partition is over the total size of the hdd.
    This imaging process on a new pc is as following script shows:
    Code:
    # Delete + MBR partition table
    dd if = /dev/zero of=/dev/sda bs=512 count=1
    # partition
    fdisk /dev/sda << EOF
    w
    EOF
    # imaging
    img rp server IP path/to/image.zmg
    This works quite well so far, with the only problem, that the partition on the new PC has the maximum of 300 GB. So if I image this image on a pc, which hdd has 500 GB, 200 GB will remain unpartitioned.
    I have redesigned the imaging now follows:
    Code:
    # imaging
    img pc1 NTFS
    img rp server IP path/to/image.zmg a1: p1
    img pa1
    Now the entire HDD is used for the partition, but after the imaging the PC doesn`t boot, and stops with a black screen and a blinking cursor.
    I am typing this on a problem with the mbr, but does not know how to fix it: (
    I have to modify the imaging-process, that i can use the image on every HDD size with the result, that always the max partitionsize is used.

    hi all, i am having an issue where found out that Imaging Script cannot be used to multicast so i am running in to a problem now. If i push out an image via zcm script bundle it works fine with your suggestions but i cannot seem to figure out why the image wipes out all the hard drives in the systems during multicast image set or a single image load via pxe boot.
    First problem:
    if i push out an image via Zenworks Image preboot bundle file set is set to 1 it wipes out all the hardrvie in the system (tow hard drive, disk 0 and disk 1. i can certainly fix the disk resizing issue by adding a script to unattaned file after the image is loaded to resize the disk automatically using diskpart commands. which works fine.
    Second problem:
    here is what i did:
    1. created an multicast Image Set
    2. number of clients needed set to 1
    3. Time out in five minutes
    It does not load the image znd waits for session to start.
    how can i automate this via zcm to make sure on pxe boot the both pcs receive the image as scheduled in zcm.
    Please assist.
    thank you.

  • Oracle Application Server of R12.1.x (10.1.3) for Custom Application Deploy

    Hi Friends,

    Hi,
    Personally i would'nt suggest using the Application server, due to
    1. If you need down time for application patching, you custom application will also be down.
    2. If you can not start 10g Application server (The one came with R12) for some issues, it will also affect your custom application.
    3. If you are upgrading/patching 10g application server (the one came with R12), you would not know what will the affect of this on custom application.

  • Custom Image deploy and custom default profile how?

    Hi,
    I have custom created wim image(Windows 8.1 update2 x64 enteprise) with all programs that I want - like:
    Office2013
    7zip
    antivirus software
    etc...
    Question is - Can I create default profile with my custom settings (control panel list icons, This PC icon show on desktop, Outlock icon pined on taskbar....)?
    I am create custom start menu but all other settings I cant modify. 
    I am found sysprep solution and ansver file but it is to complicate and
    requires much more time.
    Can I somehow copy administrator profile to default profile with all settings like I have in admin account?
    I dont understood why microsoft prefer sysprep way for create image? I think that is much
    easier periodically create an image
    with all applications and updates with default profile.
    After implementing image wsus takes him for update and
    everyone is happy.

    My latest issue - I am uninstall all store apps(with powershell some command with -online )for all users but apps
    appear again when the new
    domain user log in.
    Too many problems. Thank you for your replay.
    Hi,
    For this question, this because the default user profile still have these app installed.
    And we need to set the default domain user profile without these apps to over-write the one on local machine:
    How can I set the default domain user profile?

  • Customize Windows 8 start screen for sysprepped image deployment.

    I am attempting to customize the start screen of a windows 8 Pro image for deployment. I have been searching and reading different threads well as technet articles but I have not found anything that works or is not completely documented.
    I have tried the three methods outlined in the technet about customizing the start screen with no luck. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj134269.aspx
    The CopyProfile option does not work. Even after enabling the administrator account in audit mode the start screen tiles are not saved after sysprepping.
    Copying the AppFolderLayout.bin file or appsFolder.itemdata-ms to the default user profile does not work. The file is overwritten during the oobe process. I have added these files after sysprepping the image. They are overwritten in the default user
    profile during oobe before the new user is created.
    Using the StartTiles section of unattend would be the best option that will require fewer manual steps but only seems to be able to add new tiles. I cannot remove tiles or change order with StartTiles.
    My unattend.xml file is here: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/10327232/unattend.xml
    If anyone has a method that works for them please let me know. Especially if this can be automated using unattend.xml

    Copying the AppFolderLayout.bin file or appsFolder.itemdata-ms to the default user profile does not work.

  • Error when a TS step has a condition to check for custom variable. Variable is set on the collection.

    SCCM Version = SCCM 2012 R2 CU3
    Background
    I would like to setup some sort of safety check to help prevent accidentally sending and OSD out to all the servers managed by SCCM. The solution I am trying to use is making the TS do a check for a custom variable. If the variable is NOT set to TRUE
    then it should reboot the machine back to the currently installed OS.
    The variable is called "AllowOSD"
    AllowOSD is set correctly on my "Test Servers" collection
    I'm using the built in "Reboot Computer" step in the TS
    The condition on the Reboot Computer step is very basic - "Task Sequence Variable AllowOSD is not equal TRUE".
    I am testing the TS on a VM guest (Hyper-V)
    I'm deploying via PXE for these tests...
    The Issue
    As soon as the TS starts I get the annoyingly generic 0x80004005 error - smsts.log posted on github -
    smsts.log-A
    Possibly related issue:
    I have a vbscript that prompts for, and sets, the computer name. This works fine if placed after the format disk step, but if I place it before the format disk step then I get error 0x800700A1. If I format the internal HD first then I don't get an error
    and it all works fine.
    smsts.log posted on github - smsts.log-B
    Be aware VM_1 and VM_2 have unformatted disks (vhdx). I don't want them to be formatted before checking that the task sequence should really be running in the first place. As already mentioned, I am trying to prevent someone wiping out a bunch of servers
    by accident.
    My Task Sequences are based on the defaults created by the wizard. Here are the step I'm using...
    * Reboot if AllowOSD is not TRUE
    Restart in Windows PE
    * set Computer Name
    Partition DIsk 0 - DIOS
    Partition Disk 0 - UEFI
    Install Operating System
    Apply Windows Settings
    Apply Network Settings
    Setup Windows and Config Manager
    * = steps I have created.
    All other steps are defaults as created by wizard.
    Please note the "Restart in Windows PE" step does a conditional check on "_SMSTSInWinPE" without any errors. it is looking like the use of custom variables is not supported until the local HD is formatted and mounted. Can
    anyone confirm this behaviour, or what I can do to get around this problem.
    I have tried using a vbscript but triggering a reboot from VB does nothing, hence using the Reboot Computer step in the TS.
    Thanks
    "Well I'm all out of ideas." - 85

    As others have stated, your options are limited the moment you rely on PXE and WinPE but I think all you need to do is refine your collection target a bit.
    Why not instead of deploying your TS to All Systems (which is what I'm guess you're doing) and trying to put a condition in, deploy to a collection that is based on a workstation collection then include unknown computers?  Then any "known workstation"
    will have a MAC stored and thus be permitted to use the TS, unknown machines will be as well ... but "known servers" will be blocked?
    COnsidering the PXE looks for permitted MAC addresses this should work (Ill try it in my own lab).
    Tested and verified:
    Simply create a collection with a parent collection of all systems.
    Add a workstation query:
    select SMS_R_SYSTEM.ResourceID,SMS_R_SYSTEM.ResourceType,SMS_R_SYSTEM.Name,SMS_R_SYSTEM.SMSUniqueIdentifier,SMS_R_SYSTEM.ResourceDomainORWorkgroup,SMS_R_SYSTEM.Client from SMS_R_System where SMS_R_System.OperatingSystemNameandVersion LIKE "%Workstation%"
    Then "include" unknown computers.
    End result is any machine that has "server" in it's version that has already been deployed will not be able to use the deployment.  If you'd rather base existing computer on an OU or group membership just modify the first query how you see fit.
     This will let known workstations (or whatever) and unknown machines get deployed to ... but known machines NOT in that collection will be skipped.

  • Multicast WDS Imaging Not Working - Doesn't show up when booted via PXE..?

    I have a lab environment setup specifically for imaging laptops via WDS.   I have a stand alone Windows 2012 server connected directly to an 8-Port Cisco SG-220 8 Port switch.    Nothing else is connected to this server and it is not being
    used for anything else.  The server is running DHCP and WDS.    I can boot laptops via PXE and connect to the WDS server to deploy the images through standard WDS imaging.  However, I have not been able to get Multicasting to work.  I
    have never used Multicasting before and have read through the documentation but must be missing something.  This is what I've done:
    1. In the WDS server I right click on my deployment image and select 'create multicast image' then go through the prompts to create an auto-cast image.  
    2. The Multicast image is created and shown as 'waiting' on the WDS server.
    3. The Cisco router is brand new out of the box, the only configuration I did was to enable IGMP snooping.  I did not make any other changes to the setup of the switch.
    4. I boot a target machine via PXE using the same Boot Image that I always use.  It loads to the screen where I can select the image I want to deploy but it never shows the multicast image as an option.  I only see the regular image I had previously
    been using.
    I'm not sure what else I'm missing in order to get the target machine to connect and image using the multicast image.  
    Here are a few screen shots of what I have setup:
    Here is the multicast image created on the server
    Here is the Cisco Router configuration:
    Here is the NIC card configuration on the server:
    This is the target laptop booted via PXE but it never shows the multicast image as an option.

    Hi AdamNYC31,
    The multicast feature used by WDS uses Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) version 3. Your network switches will need to support this, and you’ll need to configure them
    for multicast. Please refer the following similar thread check each step Aaron Tyler and Ron St and Ankit Oberoi offered solution.

  • Deploying Custom Image with Answer File

    Hi everyone!
    I'm in the process of making a custom image for ~25 computers, using WAIK (no network so no MDT, WDS...). I followed Technet's "Step-by-Step: Basic Windows 7 Deployment for IT Professionals", and installed from original Win7 Ultimate Retail
    Media, with an answer file. Finally I customized that install and now have a properly set-up install, in audit mode and waiting to be generalized.
    I'd like to deploy this custom install with an answer file/configuration set, in order to auto-install some drivers and hardware-specific apps, answer typical questions, etc...
    But I must admit, I'm a bit unclear as to how to proceed from there. So I'm going to state how I understand it, and would love you to correct me where I'm wrong!
    On reference computer, run syprep /generalize /oobe /shutdown
    Boot to WinPE, capture image with ImageX
    Open the resulting custom.wim in WSIM, generate a catalog file
    Make Answer File + Configuration Set, copy them to the root of an empty UFD
    Replace the Original Win7 Media's install.wim with my custom.wim, make bootable UFD
    Deploy to other computers with the 2 UFD's
    Does that sound right to you? Am I missing something? Also, should I be running sysprep with a /unattend:xxx.xml switch (not sure how that works)?
    Bonus Question:
    I'd like to use the Answer File + Configuration Set to perform some silent installs via script. Could you point me to a relevant Technet (or 3rd party) resource for that?
    Thank you very much for reading ^^

    If you are doing the "replace install.wim" option, then you are installing using Setup. In this scenario, Setup will ignore the answer file specified in the image with the /unattend switch with Sysprep. So it would be unnecessary to prepare the
    image with that switch.
    Awesome! Thanks very much for clarifying the use of the /unattend switch with sysprep =)
    Anyways, I'd rather use an autounattend.xml in another UFD, which I can replace for any different hardware type, partition layout, etc...
    Also, the "replace install.wim" method is the only one I know. Are there others I should be aware of?
    Thanks!
    Hi,
    yes, the basic process is like what you said.

  • Map custom image dir on Standalone deployment?

    Is it possible to map a custom images (or other) directory on the Standalone deployment server?
    i.e.: images is mapped to /i/
    corporate images mapped to /ci/
    thanks - Karen
    Edited by: K Cannell on May 10, 2011 1:17 AM

    Hello Karen,
    as for the current release 1.1.1, only +/i/+ is supported directly in standalone mode. I assume you can't just reset the images prefix on your APEX instance. So you'll either have to use a "fullblown" J2EE Container for that purpose, or put a HTTP proxy in front of your standalone APEX Listener. Many proxies, e.g. Apache HTTPD, can be configured to do reverse proxying for a certain URL-path (e.g. +/apex+), but serve locally on others (e.g. +/i/+ and +/ci/+), so you could copy your images into the proxies document root.

    The TS is deployed to the All Unknown Computers group.  The client machine I'm trying to install the OS is a VM with no OS currently installed so I'm assuming SCCM would see it as an Unknown Computer.  How would I verify that SCCM doesn't currently
    hold any data for this client?
    Also, I noticed the following in the SMSPXE log: <![LOG[Client boot action reply: <ClientIDReply><Identification
    Unknown="0"
    Does Unknown="0" mean SCCM is not recognizing the client as being unknown?

  • Best practice for customizing EJB property after deployment

    Hi Gurus,
      What is the best practice for customizing EJB property after deployment in NW7.1? I have a stateless session bean and it needs to get some environment information before acting. While the information can only be known at runtime. What should I do to achieve it? I thought I can bind the property with a JNDI context but I did not find out where to declare and change the context value. Please advise. Thanks.

  • SAP Cloud For Customer : How to change the Logo or Image into the Standard Form Template

    Hi Experts,
    I have requirement to change the standard template format.
    I have copy standard template and edit using Adobe Life Cycle Designer to change the logo / image.
    After changed and upload modified template and change the output setting for print i can able to see the changes but logo / image can not display.
    Can anyone have idea how to solve this issue ?
    Can we change the template within cloud system?
    If Yes than How ?
    Regards,
    Mithun

    The following are the instructions (November 2014 version of SAP Cloud for Customer)
    Edit a Form Master Template
    Overview
    As an administrator, you can edit existing form master templates. These are used to define the header, footer, and logos used in form templates. Form master templates also contain an e-mail disclaimer that is appended to automatically generated e-mails sent to business partners when a document is output from the system.
    Procedure
    1. Go to Application and User Management or Administrator Business Flexibility Master Template Maintenance .
    2. In the Master Template Maintenance view, select Form Master Templates from the Show menu.
    3. Select the master template you want to edit and click Edit.
    4. On the Form Master Template tab, do the following:
    Under Header, click Upload and browse to find the file you want as logo. Adjust the size and alignment of the logo, as required.The file formats .gif, .bmp, .jpg, .png, and .tif are supported. The logo should not be larger than 40 mm width x 20 mm height. If you upload a graphic that is larger than 40 mm x 20 mm, it is resized automatically.Select the Header Divider checkbox if you want a graphical divider to appear on your form.Under Sender Address, enter your company’s address. The sender address is shown above the recipient's address in a letter.Under Footer, choose the number of footer columns you want to display. Enter the footer text exactly as you would like it to appear on the form. You can maintain up to 4 footer blocks with a maximum of 10 lines per footer.Note that the width of each footer block is equally divided over the available space. If a line of text in the footer is too long for the current font size, the system will automatically enter a line break. If this automatic line break does not meet your needs, you may need to enter the text after the line break as a separate line.To maintain multiple languages, you must first add the language from the Add menu and then maintain the texts in that language by selecting the language from the dropdown list.
    5. Click the refresh button to preview your changes. From the dropdown list under Preview, you can select a country. The preview is then displayed using the country-specific template, for example, some countries do not use sender addresses or have different paper sizes.
    6. On the E-Mail Disclaimer tab, you can enter a disclaimer or other company-specific legal information.
    This text is appended to the main text body of e-mails that are created when a document is output by the system. It is not possible to create separate language versions of this text; therefore if your company uses multiple communication languages, you should enter all language versions of the disclaimer here.
    7. Click Save and Close.
    Result
    If required, you can now assign the form master template to a company/org unit and/or output channel. For more information, see the Master Template Maintenance Quick Guide.
    Note that master templates can be activated and deactivated for each form template in the Form Template Maintenance view. For more information, see the Form Template Maintenance Quick Guide.
