Microsoft Deployment Toolkit (MDT) 2010 Update 1 is RTM

Posted on by

has released a new version of 2010 named Update 1.

It’s a great tool im loving it.

What new:

For Configuration Manager 2007 users:

  • New “User Driven Installation” method. An easy-to-use UDI Wizard allows users to initiate and customize an OS deployment on their PCs that’s tailored to their individual needs.

  • Support for Configuration Manager R3 “Prestaged Media.” For those deploying 7 and along with new PCs, a custom OS image can easily be loaded in the factory and then customized once deployed.

For Lite Touch Installation:

  • Support for Office 2010. Easily configure Office 2010 installation and deployment settings through the Deployment Workbench and integration with the Office Customization Tool.
  • Improved driver importing. All drivers are inspected during the import process to accurately determine what platforms they really support, avoiding common inaccuracies that can cause deployment issues.

Bug Fixes and small improvements

  • LTI Wizard performance improvement. The LTI Wizard now takes less time to initialize and shows up faster.
  • Issue in validating connection to the server fixed. In a few scenarios, used to report the error message, "A connection to the distribution share could not be made" when a task sequence is run. The Microsoft Support article, “Error message when you use : ‘Multiple connections to a server or shared resource by the same user, using more than one user name, are not allowed,’” at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/977566 describes this issue in detail. This issue has been fixed in MDT 2010 Update 1.
  • Support for installing roles and features. MDT 2010 Update 1 adds support for installation of Windows 7 operating system roles and features.
  • Looping issue with x64 custom Windows images fixed. In MDT 2010, ZTI–System Center Configuration Manager deployments could get into an infinite loop when deploying an x64 Windows image captured by LTI. This issue has been fixed in MDT 2010 Update 1
  • Error handling improvements in MDT task sequence templates. In MDT 2010, task sequences appear to finish successfully even when they really failed. These issues are fixed in MDT 2010 Update 1.

Step 5. When you open MDT 2010 management console and you go to the Office 2010 Application that you added in step 3. You wil see that MDT sees more the one language.

    Checking Microsoft Office 2010 KMS Activation Status

    Posted on by
    Reply

    Before you start you must al ready have a kms server.
    On the KMS server you need to install the Office 2010 KMS Host License Pack on the KMS Server.
    Launch 2010
    Click to the File tab. Click Help.

    Office is not activated
    clip_image002
    Determining Which Activation Method Office is Using – KMS or MAK

    Click the start menu and enter cmd /k cscript “%programfiles%\Microsoft Office\Office14\ospp.vbs” /dstatus in the search box.

    If running 32 bit on 64 bit , %programfiles% above should be replaced with %programfiles(x86)%.

    Not Activated

    Checking if a DNS Domain is Configured for KMS Auto-Discovery

    To check if a DNS domain is configured for KMS auto-discovery, check that a SRV record exists.

    nslookup -type=srv _vlmcs._tcp.wardvissers.nl

    If a SRV record exists for the domain, the DNS server will detail the SRV record. 

    

    C:\>nslookup -type=srv _vlmcs._tcp
    

    Server:  ward-dc02.wardvissers.local
    

    Address:  192.168.150.6
    

    Non-authoritative answer:
    

    _vlmcs._tcp.wardvissers.local SRV service location:
    

              priority       = 0
    

              weight         = 0
    

              port           = 1688
    

              svr hostname   = ward-dc2.wardvissers.local
    

    If no SRV record exists for the domain, the DNS server will return an error 
    

    Verifying that a Windows Computer can Communicate with the KMS Activation Server 
    

    KMS activation requires that the machine to be activated has TCP port 1688 open for outbound communication to the activation server.
    

    Verifying that outbound TCP port 1688 is open to the KMS server 
    

      

    1. Download and install the utility portqry.exe from Microsoft. It is a command line utility from Microsoft that reports the port status of a remote host.

    2. From a command prompt, run the command: 
      3. 

    

    portqry.exe -n ward-dc02.wardvissers.local -p tcp -e 1688
    

    The command will return “TCP port 1688 (unknown service): LISTENING” if the computer is able to communicate with the KMS server.
    

    clip_image006
    

    If the command returns “TCP port 1688 (unknown service): FILTERED” then the computer is unable to communicate with the KMS server 
    

    Manually Specifying the KMS Activation Server
    

    1. Type cmd in the search bar to locate the command window.. 
    2. At the command prompt, type cd\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office14. 
    

    If running 32 bit Office 2010 on 64 bit Windows, Program Files above should be replaced with Program Files (x86). 
    Run the command cscript ospp.vbs /sethst:ward-dc02.wardvissers.local to manually specify the KMS activation server. 
    clip_image007
    

    Run the command cscript ospp.vbs /act to activate Office with the KMS server.

    Click to the File tab. Click Help. 
    

    Office is activated
