New TechNet Webcast: Automated Windows Server 2008 Imaging and Deployment Using the Microsoft Deployment Accelerator (Level 300)

Overview Deployment tools for the Windows Server 2008 operating system have changed and most legacy tools will not support automated installation of Windows Server 2008. Microsoft Deployment is the next version of Business Desktop Deployment (BDD) 2007. The fourth-generation deployment accelerator supports Windows Server 2008 imaging and deployment. This webcast is delivered by solution developers that explain how to use Microsoft Deployment to plan deployments, create disk images, customize installation task sequences, automate disk and NIC configuration, and automate server role definition. The presenter discusses previously released tools (Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager 2007 and Windows Deployment Services [WDS] with multicast support), features and limitations, and the Microsoft Deployment release road map.
