Understanding Windows Vista Deployment
Two primary tools are used in capturing and deploying Windows Vista images.
ImageX is a command-line tool that enables you to capture, apply, and manage WIM images.
Windows PE is a minimal operating system that you can boot from CD or other media that enables you to run ImageX and other tools.

Windows Deployment Services (Windows DS) enables you to deploy Windows Vista remotely using Windows PE and Windows DS Server.
Windows System Image Manager (Windows SIM) manages WIM files and can be used to create an autounattend.xml file for use in unattended installations.
Understanding the Deployment Process (cont.)
Understanding Vista DeploymentUnderstanding Vista Deployment
Open the command prompt with administrator credentials and change the working directory to c:\program files\windows aik\tools\petools.
Type copype %Architecture designation% %Destination path% (for example, copype x86 c:\winpe) and then press Enter.
Creating a Windows PE Boot CD
Deploying Vista from an ImageDeploying Vista from an Image
Type copy “c:\program files\windows aik\tools\x86\imagex.exe” c:\winpe\iso\ and then press Enter.
Change the working directory to c:\program files\windows aik\tools\petools.
Creating a Windows PE Boot CD (cont.)
Deploying Vista from an ImageDeploying Vista from an Image
Type oscdimg -n -bc:\winpe\etfsboot.com c:\winpe\ISO c:\winpe\winpe.iso. This creates a bootable ISO image file from the contents of the C:\winpe\ISO directory.
Use third-party CD burning software to burn the winpe.iso ISO image to a writable CD.
Creating a Windows PE Boot CD (cont.)
Deploying Vista from an ImageDeploying Vista from an Image
Boot by using a bootable Windows PE CD.
In the command prompt window, type diskpart and then press Enter.
Type select disk 0 and press Enter.
Type clean and press Enter.
Type create partition primary and press Enter.
Preparing a Partition for an Image
Deploying Vista from an ImageDeploying Vista from an Image
Type select partition 1 and press Enter.
Type active. Partition 1 is set as the active partition.
Type format. Partition 1 is formatted in NTFS.
Type exit and then press Enter.
Preparing a Partition for an Image(cont.)
Deploying Vista from an ImageDeploying Vista from an Image
In the Windows PE command prompt window, type net use Y: \\ServerName\ShareName and press Enter.
Provide credentials in the form DomainName\UserName when prompted.
Type D:\imagex /apply y:\ImageFile ImageNumber ImagePath (for example, D:\imagex /apply y:\workstation1.wim 1 C:) and press Enter.
Applying an Image from a Network Share
Deploying Vista from an ImageDeploying Vista from an Image
D is the drive letter where the Windows PE CD is inserted.
workstation1.wim is the name of an example WIM image that ImageX is applying.
1 identifies which volume image within the WIM image that ImageX will apply.
C: is the path where ImageX will apply the image.

In the Windows PE command prompt window, type copy d:\imagex.exe x:\ and press Enter. This copies the ImageX program to the RAM drive so that it will be accessible without the Windows PE CD in the drive.
Type X:\imagex /apply y:\ImageFile ImageNumber ImagePath (for example, X:\imagex /apply y:\workstation2.wim 1 C:) and press Enter.

Roaming profile problems are most commonly caused by the following:
Incorrect paths
Incorrect permissions
Connectivity problems

Event 1525: User Profile Service
Check to see whether the profile path is correct.
Open Active Directory Users and Computers (ADUC).
Expand contoso.com and then select Users.
In the details pane, right-click the user and then click Properties.

If the permissions are not sufficient, you will see the following error in Event Viewer:

Event 1521- User Profile ServiceWindows cannot locate the server copy of your roaming profile and is attempting to log you on with your local profile. Changes to the profile will not be copied to the server when you log off. This error may be caused by network problems or insufficient security rights. DETAIL - Access is denied.

Select the user or group for which you want to check permissions and then click Edit.
Checking Share-Level Permissions

Ensure that the permissions follow the best practice permissions scheme described in Table 2-4 or that they are correct for the scheme at your company.
Troubleshooting Folder Redirection is very similar to troubleshooting roaming profiles because the three most common causes of problems are nearly the same.
Incorrect paths
Incorrect permissions or ownership
Connectivity problems
Troubleshooting Folder Redirection
Post-Deployment TasksPost-Deployment Tasks
At least two instances of incorrect path errors can occur in Folder Redirection.
A network administrator changed the Folder Redirection policy to a non-existent target path (for example, a typo is made when changing target paths to a new server).
A new Folder Redirection policy contains a non-existent target path.

Editing the Target Path of a Folder Redirection Policy
Post-Deployment TasksPost-Deployment Tasks
Edit the target path in the Root Path text box as needed and click OK.
Checking Permissions

Group or User Name
NTFS Permission
Apply onto:
CREATOR OWNER Full Control Subfolders and Files Only
SYSTEM Full Control This Folder, Subfolder, and Files
Domain Admins Full Control This Folder, Subfolder and Files
Checking Ownership
Post-Deployment TasksPost-Deployment Tasks
The owner of the item is listed in the Current owner of this item box. The owner of the target folder should be the user. If the user is not the owner, click Other Users or Groups. To add the user to the list of possible owners, select the user in the list and then click Apply.
Folder Redirection can fail if connectivity to the server hosting the target path fails. When this happens, any data written to the folder will be stored on the local computer and will be synchronized with the server when connectivity is re-established.

SummarySummary
Windows Vista deployment, whether automated for an entire enterprise or performed individually on a computer, can be completed using WIM images.
All Windows Vista deployments that are based on Microsoft technologies follow a similar pattern regardless of their scope: Windows PE is booted and a WIM image (captured manually or on a Vista DVD) is used to supply source files.
