Media in LTI allows you to perform LTI deployments solely from local media, without connecting to a deployment share. You can store the media on a DVD, USB hard disk, or other portable device. After you create the media, generate bootable WIM images that allow the deployment to be performed from portable media devices locally available on the target computer.
You determine the items to be included on the media in a selection profile you specify when you create the media. The Deployment Workbench automatically includes Windows PE in the media WIM image so that Windows PE is started from the media available to the target computer. When Windows PE starts, the Deployment Wizard is automatically started, as well.
Manage deployment media by performing the following tasks in the Deployment Workbench:
· Create new deployment media as described in Create New Deployment Media in the Deployment Workbench.
· Modify existing media as described in Modify Existing Media in the Deployment Workbench.
· Copy media as described in Copy Media in the Deployment Workbench.
· Move media as described in Move Media in the Deployment Workbench.
· Delete media as described in Delete Media from the Deployment Workbench.
· Generate media images as described in Generate Media Images in the Deployment Workbench.
· Create bootable devices from deployment media as described in Create Bootable Devices from Deployment Media.
In addtion to managing deployment media in the Deployment Workbench, you can manage deployment media using the MDT Windows PowerShell cmdlets. For more information on managing deployment media using the MDT Windows PowerShell cmdlets, see the following sections beneath the section, MDT Windows PowerShell Cmdlets, in the MDT document Toolkit Reference:
