Deploy the Captured Image and User State Migration Data in the Replace Computer Deployment Scenario Using UDI

Start the target computer with the ZTI bootable media created earlier in the process or from Windows Deployment Services. The ZTI bootable media starts Windows PE on the target computer and initiates the UDI deployment process. At the end of the deployment process, the captured image of the reference computer is deployed on the target computer, and the user state migration data is restored from the Configuration Manager 2012 state migration point.

To complete the Windows Deployment Wizard in the Replace Computer deployment scenario for deploying the captured image using UDI

1. Start the reference computer with the ZTI bootable media created earlier in the process or from Windows Deployment Services.

Windows PE starts, and then the Windows Deployment Wizard starts.

2. Complete the Task Sequence Wizard, ensuring that you follow the configuration settings for the wizard pages listed in Table 142 and select values on the other wizard pages for your organization’s requirements.

Note This wizard will not appear if you configure ZTI to perform a PXE boot and have configured a mandatory advertisement or if only one task sequence is advertised to the target computer.

Table 142. Information for Completing the Task Sequence Wizard for the Replace Computer Deployment Scenario Using UDI

On this wizard page	Do this
Select a Task Sequence	Select the task sequence you created for the target computer deployment in the Replace Computer deployment scenario to deploy the captured image of the reference computer to the new target computer.

The task sequence starts. Eventually, the task sequence starts the UDI Wizard.

3. Complete the UDI Wizard by selecting the appropriate values on the wizard pages for your organization’s requirements, as described in Running the UDI Wizard.

4. Optionally, view the MDT deployment process using the Monitoring node in the Deployment Workbench or using the Get-MDTMonitorData cmdlet.

For more information about monitoring MDT deployments, see View MDT Deployment Progress.

The task sequence starts Windows PE and then initiates installation of the new operating system. The task sequence restarts the computer, starts the new operating system, restores the user state migration data, installs any packages, installs any applications, and performs any other actions configured in the task sequence. Finally, the OSD Results program, OSDResults.exe, runs and displays the results of the deployment. The target computer is now deployed.
