Managing UDI Deployments

You manage UDI deployments through the Configuration Manager console and the UDI Wizard Designer. You use the Deployment Workbench in UDI deployments only to configure the MDT DB. The wizard used to create UDI task sequences are integrated into the Configuration Manager console. You can use the UDI Wizard Designer to configure the behavior of the UDI Wizard.

Manage UDI deployments by:

· Reviewing UDI administration process as described in Overview of UDI Administration

· Creating a new task sequence for UDI deployments using the Create MDT Task Sequence Wizard as described in Creating a UDI Task Sequence Using MDT Task Sequence Templates

· Managing operating systems for UDI deployments in the Configuration Manager Console as described in Managing Operating Systems in Configuration Manager 2012 or Managing Operating Systems in Configuration Manager 2007 R3 which is the same process for UDI and ZTI deployments

· Managing device drivers for UDI deployments in the Configuration Manager Console as describe in Managing Device Drivers in Configuration Manager 2012 or Managing Device Drivers in Configuration Manager 2007 R3, which is the same process for UDI and ZTI deployments

· Deploying an operating system using task sequence bootable media as described in Deploying an Operating System Using Task Sequence Bootable Media in Configuration Manager 2012 or Deploying an Operating System Using Task Sequence Bootable Media in Configuration Manager 2007 R3, which is the same process for UDI and ZTI deployments

· Creating task sequence bootable media for UDI as described in Creating Task Sequence Bootable Media in Configuration Manager 2012in Creating Task Sequence Bootable Media in Configuration Manager 2007 R3, which is the same process for UDI and ZTI deployments

· Creating boot images for use with UDI using the Create Image Using Microsoft Deployment Wizard as described in Creating ZTI Boot Images in Configuration Manager 2012 or Creating ZTI Boot Images in Configuration Manager 2007 R3, which is the same process for UDI and ZTI deployments

· Managing software packages for UDI in the Configuration Manager console as described in Managing Software Packages in Configuration Manager 2012 or Managing Software Packages in Configuration Manager 2007 R3, which is the same process for UDI and ZTI deployments

· Managing advertisements for UDI as described in in Managing Task Sequence Deployment in Configuration Manager 2012 or Managing Advertisements in Configuration Manager 2007 R3, which is the same process for UDI and ZTI deployments

· Manually adding computers to the site database for UDI as described in Manually Adding Computers to the Site Database in Configuration Manager 2012 or Manually Adding Computers to the Site Database in Configuration Manager 2007 R3, which is the same process for UDI and ZTI deployments

· Managing computer collections for UDI as described in Managing Computer Collections in Configuration Manager 2012or Managing Computer Collections in Configuration Manager 2007 R3, which is the same process for UDI and ZTI deployments

· Managing distribution points for UDI as described in Managing Distribution Points in Configuration Manager 2012or Managing Distribution Points in Configuration Manager 2007 R3, which is the same process for UDI and ZTI deployments

· Configuring individual UDI task sequence steps as described in Configuring ZTI Task Sequence Steps in Configuration Manager 2012 or Configuring ZTI Task Sequence Steps in Configuration Manager 2007 R3, which is the same process for UDI and ZTI deployments

· Configuring the UDI Wizard behavior by customizing the UDI Wizard configuration file as described in Configuring UDI Wizard Behavior
