 What is OSD?
 What is SCCM OSD?
 What is a successfully OSD (IT Perspective) / (End-user Perspective)
 What we need to consider
 Concepts
 Demo
WINDOWS XP AND WHY?
 Application Compatibility
 User Experience
WHAT IS OSD?
- Operating System Deployment / Operating System Distribution
- Old School
- Everything in a base image
- Many base images
- Difficult to manage and maintain
- Difficult to update and make changes
- Difficult to test
- Rely on old way of thinking
WHAT IS SCCM OSD?
- Device / OSD life cycle
- Module
- Small base image
- Easy to manage and maintain
- Easy to update and make changes
- Easy to test
WHAT IS A SUCCESSFULLY OSD
(IT PERSPECTIVE)
- 90%+ of success
- Quick and less network utilization
- Meet SLA
- Fully updated and automated
- END USER PROOF
WHAT IS A SUCCESSFULLY OSD
(END-USER PERSPECTIVE)
- All my applications are still there
- All my files are still there
- Everything I had before (even I never used it) is still there
- Everything I need to do my job is ALREADY there
- I’M PART OF IT
WHAT WE NEED TO CONSIDER
 Application/Application Upgrade
 Unknown applications
 Backup/Recovery
 Unknown file location
 BYOD (ie. Supportability, Licensing, etc)
 Security (ie. Disk encryption, etc)
 Understand your company and what your users needs
are and what your users are allowed to do
HOW WE DO IT?
 Understand your company and what your users needs and what your users are
allowed to do

Unattend.xml.
 Driver: computer program that operates or controls a particular type of device
that is attached to a computer
CONCEPTS (2)
 Build and Capture Process: Process to build a base image (also known as Gold
Image) with core applications and software updates
 Applications




not customized by environment (ie Active Directory)
used by ALL users
not subject to frequent updates
will not be replaced by other application soon
 Software Updates
 All updates approved by the time the gold image is created
CONCEPTS (3)
 Deploy Process: Process to deploy the gold image with applications and
customizations based on environment customizations
 Applications
 Applications needed by the user, computer or environment (ie. Active Directory)
 used by the user’s of the machine
 subject to frequent updates
 Software Updates
 All updates approved and not contained in the gold image
CONCEPTS (4)

Install Operating System
Install Applications
Install Software Updates

ATTENTION
SCCM AUTOMATE “STUFF”
