network diagram

For Better View > Open Image in different TAB

please have a look to diagram above 

we will prepare SCCM in DMZ 172.16.x.x to deploy image in DMZ 172.19.x.x. 

 

OSD process tasks

tasks of Operating system deployment include the following : 

  • install DP 
  • install DHCP
  • Enable SCCM PXE Role
  • BOOT Image Distribution
  • Add Operating System Image
  • configure software distribution point
  • Task Sequence Creation > Next Article 
  • Deploy task sequence into Unknown  Computer Collection > Next Article 
  • Deploying Windows 10 via PXE boot > Next Article 

install DP Distribution Point

normally  DP role  is installed during SCCM setup > 

and here in network pioneers we have already installed  DP previously

BUT ,,, 

in case you  choose to NOT install it early >> you can install DP  role here 

 

install DHCP

DHCP is responsible to lease IP  address to client computer when the boot , so they can reach SCCM to get OS image 

  • first we will install  role  DHCP 
  • then authorize DHCP server in AD 
  • create scope for subnet 172.19.x.x
  • activate scope 
  • set some scope options 
from server manager add role
select DHCP
installation Done but need some configurations
select complete DHCP configuration
open DHCP from administrative tools
from DHCP console > check is DHCP require authorization
create new scope
set scope name
set > then finish to activate scope range

Enable SCCM PXE Role

we have installed DP role , and it’s time to configure DP to support PXE boot 

Go to Administration / Site Configuration / Servers and Site System Roles Select your distribution point and right-click on the Distribution point role on the bottom, select Properties
Select the PXE tab
Select the PXE tab Enable the Enable PXE support for Clients check-boxandanswer Yes when prompted about firewall ports (UDP ports 67, 68, 69 and 4011 )
Check the Allow this distribution point to respond to incoming PXE requests check box Check the Enable unknown computer support check box Ensure that the Respond to PXE request on all network interfaces is selected Click OK
Go to Monitoring / Distribution Status / Distribution Point Configuration Status Click your distribution point on the top and select the Details tab on the bottom We will see that the distribution point PXE settings has changed

BOOT Image Distribution

our OS to deploy  will be windows 10 64 bit >> SO ,,,, we will select boot image x64bit to distribute 

Go to Software Library / Operating Systems / Boot Images, Right-click Boot Image (X64) and distribute to DPs.
selec DP server which is same SCCM since we have ONLY one server
DONE 🙂
boot image distributed successfully

Add Operating System Image

is step above we add boot image with is x64bit

now we will add OS image which .wim file [ come with SCCM media [ 

Launch the Configuration Manager console, click on Software Library, click Operating Systems, right click on Operating systems images and click on Add Operating System Image.

select add OS image
seelct file .wim path and image index
set name for OS image
review and accept
done

configure software distribution point

in this step we can set account that is responsible for network access 

you set an domain y account 

BUT ,,,,

here  in Network pioneers will use pioneers\administrator to save time 

select software distribution
from [network access ] TAB > select account
