Configuring Task Sequences in the Deployment Workbench

Task sequences in MDT contain the steps to be performed during LTI. Task sequences in MDT use the same task sequence engine as Configuration Manager 2012 and Configuration Manager 2007 R3; however, Configuration Manager 2012 or Configuration Manager 2007 R3 are not required to perform LTI deployments. Use the Deployment Workbench to manage the task sequences used to perform deployments to the reference and target computers in your organization.

Configure task sequences in the Deployment Workbench in a deployment share’s Packages node by:

· Creating a new task sequence as described in Create a New Task Sequence in the Deployment Workbench

· Modifying an existing task sequence as described in Modify an Existing Task Sequence in the Deployment Workbench

· Copying task sequences as described in Copy Task Sequences in the Deployment Workbench

· Moving task sequences as described in Move Task Sequences in the Deployment Workbench

· Renaming task sequences as described in Rename Task Sequences in the Deployment Workbench

· Deleting task sequences as described in Delete Task Sequences from the Deployment Workbench

· Managing folders for task sequences as described in Manage Folders for Task Sequences in the Deployment Workbench

· Enabling or disabling a task sequence as described in Enable or Disable a Task Sequence in the Deployment Workbench

· Preventing task sequences from being visible in the Deployment Wizard as described in Prevent a Task Sequence from Being Visible in the Deployment Wizard

· Modifying the unattended setup answer file for a task sequence as described in Modify the Unattended Setup Answer File Associated with the Task Sequence

In addtion to managing task sequences in the Deployment Workbench, you can manage task sequences using the MDT Windows PowerShell cmdlets. For more information on managing task sequences using the MDT Windows PowerShell cmdlets, see the following sections beneath the section, MDT Windows PowerShell Cmdlets, in the MDT document Toolkit Reference:

· Import-MDTTaskSequence
