Step 3-6: Update the Deployment Share

After configuring the deployment share, update it. Updating the deployment share updates all the MDT configuration files and generates a customized version of Windows PE. You use the customized version of Windows PE to start the reference computer and initiate LTI deployment.

To update the deployment share in the Deployment Workbench

1. Click Start, and then point to All Programs. Point to Microsoft Deployment Toolkit, and then click Deployment Workbench.

2. In the Deployment Workbench console tree, go to Deployment Workbench/Deployment Shares.

3. In the details pane, click MDT Deployment Share (C:\DeploymentShare$).

4. In the Actions pane, click Update Deployment Share.

The Update Deployment Share Wizard starts.
