    Study Notes

    Microsoft Deployment Toolkit (MDT)

    • The primary use of MDT is to deploy Windows operating systems and applications.
    • MDT is a free tool, whereas SCCM (System Center Configuration Manager) is a paid tool.
    • MDT can be installed on Windows 10.
    • MDT is more lightweight and focused on deployment, whereas SCCM offers more features, such as software updates, inventory management, and software distribution.
    • SCCM is now called Microsoft Endpoint Manager (MEM).

    Benefits of MDT

    • MDT should be used because it provides a flexible and customizable way to deploy Windows operating systems and applications.

    MDT vs WDS

    • MDT is more advanced and feature-rich compared to WDS (Windows Deployment Services), which is a basic deployment tool.

    Deployment Capabilities

    • MDT can deploy Windows operating systems, including Windows 10, Windows 8, and Windows 7.
    • A requirement for MDT deployment is a Windows ADK (Assessment and Deployment Kit).

    Logging and Monitoring

    • MDT log files are stored in the MININT\SMSOSD\OSDLOGS folder during the deployment process.
    • To enable monitoring in MDT, ZTI (Zero Touch Installation) and UDI (User-Driven Installation) monitoring need to be configured.
    • MDT log files are moved to the C:\MININT folder at the completion of the deployment.

    Distribution Points

    • A distribution point (DP) in SCCM is used to store and distribute software packages and operating system images.
    • The role of a DP in SCCM is to provide a localized storage point for clients to access software and operating system images, reducing the load on the central server.
