I know you like MDT, is a great deployment solution, but it gets even better if the right tools are integrated into your images. I also know that a lot of times during deployments something gets messed up, some clients get an unexpected error, a script gets stuck somewhere, and the deployment stops. Now thats not such a big deal if you are on site, but if you do this remotely, well you get the idea. Im going to show you a tool now that you can use to create a remote connection to those clients, even if they are in the Win. PE environment. For this I presume you already have a fully functional MDT Deployment Workbench serverworkstation and I also presume you already downloaded MDOP Microsoft Desktop Optimization Pack. MDOP is a must for this to work because it has a tool that we need and is called Da. RT Diagnostic and Recovery Toolset. Unfortunately to be able to download MDOP you need a Microsoft Software Assurance subscription. For this lab I will use MDT 2. MDOP 2. 01. 3 R2, which are the latest versions at the time of this writing. First lets install Da. RT. Click the Diagnostics and Recovery Toolset from the MDOP screen,than choose the installation package version for your platform. Since Im doing this on a 2. R2 server I will choose the 6. Da. RT. Install Da. RT using the default or recommended options. Once installed, navigate to C Program FilesMicrosoft Da. RTv. 8. 1 and copy the Tools. Tools. 86. cab to the appropriate Tools folder in your Deployment Share. Open your MDT Deployment Workbench, right click your Deployment Share and choose Properties. Installous For Ios 4. In the Properties page, click the Windows PE tab, and then click the Features tab. Down at the bottom you should now see the Microsoft Diagnostics and Recovery Toolkit Da. RT check box. Check this box, then do the same for the 6. Change the platform from the Platform drop down box at the top. Before you close this, you need to make sure monitoring is enabled for the Deployment Share, or you will get the bellow error message when viewing the Monitoring section No monitoring data is available because monitoring is not enabled for this deployment shareTo verify this just hit the Monitoring tab on the MDT Deployment Share Properties window. Make sure the Enable Monitoring for this deployment share check box is checked. By enabling monitoring a new service, the Microsoft Deployment Toolkit Monitor Service is installed on the system which receive events from the computers being monitored. Update the Deployment Share. When this is done, make sure you update all your boot images from your WDS server for those of you that are using WDS to boot clients for deployment. If you boot a client with the new boot image, you should have Da. RT at the Welcome screenand if you click Run Da. RT tools, the tools window will open. The one that we are interested right now is the Remote Connection application. By launching this you can then remote into this session of Win. PE from a computer with Da. RT installed by using the Da. RT Remote Connection Viewer. Lets automate this so the Remote Connection application will be launched automatically during deployment. All we have to do is get rid of the Welcome screen and set the automatic authentication to the MDT share. Right click your Deployment Share, choose Properties, click the Rules tab then the Edit Bootstrap. Now put the following line here, by replacing the credentials and keyboard with your own keyboard. Localeen usskipbddwelcomeyes. User. IDadministrator. User. Domainintel. User. Passworda. Save the file and click OK to exit. Update the Deployment Share. Again, you will need to update all your boot images on you WDS server so you will be up to date. Once in the Win. PE environment is up you should see the Remote Connection application minimized waiting for a connection. To see this session remotely, open your MDT Deployment Workbench and click the Monitoring folder. All computers that are in a deployment process are listed here. They are kept in the list for three days, then they are automatically deleted so the MDT database will not get too big. Windows Serial Keys Facebook here. If you double click one of them or right click Properties you can see the deployment status updated every 1. Da. RT Remote Control button. By clicking it, a remote connection will be opened from the client, even if that client is not yet installed, is still in the Win. PE environment.     As you can see this is a very nice feature to have in your images especially if you are deploying in remote sites. I will leave the rest of the tools for you to check them out.
