What are the key steps in the “Building” phase of desktop deployment?
Streamlining the process, developing the process, testing, configuration, and managing logistics.
What is the purpose of the “Testing” step in the building phase?
To identify and correct errors in the OS configuration or deployment process before rollout.
What does the “Configuration” step involve?
Developing automation solutions, configuring standardized images or device configurations, and planning for network access.
What is included in “Managing the logistics” during the building phase?
Storing computers, deploying hardware, communicating with end users, and potentially coordinating with hardware vendors for pre-shipment configuration.
How does the deployment team typically approach the deployment phase?
They deploy in phases, stabilizing each phase before moving on, and use early phases to validate configurations and user experience.
What is “Enrollment” in the context of modern device management?
Configuring an existing device to meet organizational requirements and granting it access to resources without redeploying the OS.
What are the benefits of using enrollment for mobile devices and BYOD scenarios?
It allows organizations to manage a range of devices and scenarios, from basic email access to full device management, while accommodating different requirements for various user groups.
What are some best practices for managing data during deployment?
Migrating essential data to the cloud or network shares before deployment, using in-place upgrades whenever possible, and leveraging tools like USMT for local data and settings migration.
What is the purpose of the User State Migration Tool (USMT)?
To capture and migrate user accounts, files, OS settings, and application settings to a new Windows installation.
