Hydration Introduction What is Hydration? 2 Wizards - HTML Applications (HTA) Hydrate Deployment Point- stages the deployment point Hydrate Server – builds the Server (including ConfigMgr/OpsMgr and ZTP) What is in the single server Hydration build? Active Directory Domain Controller, DHCP, DNS, IIS, WDS, SQL Server 2005 SP2, PowerShell 1.0, ACT 5.0, OMPM, ConfigMgr, MDT, OpsMgr, OpsMgr Reporting, BizTalk Server 2006, Windows SharePoint Services 2.0, USMT 3.0.1, and Visual Studio 2005. Includes DDPS_BDDHydrationGuide.docx Step by step how to use How to customize Key Message Overview of Hydration Presenter Script We don’t want to spend a lot of time installing software. So we have provided some wizards to help automate the process called Hydration. Hydration has two wizards. The first stages your source media. The second builds out a complete infrastructure on a single server in an unattended manner. All you need to do is gather the needed software and then use the supplied HTML applications (.HTA’s) that walk you through the two main processes. Please note that Hydration also takes care of many configuration steps as well. For instance, BizTalk Server 2006 is installed and configured with a basic setup. Also be aware that Hydration has been tested with the x86 versions of the various components and applications. You don’t have to install everything, but there are obviously dependencies. The included Readme.docx gives you detailed instructions on how to use and customize this tool. Presenter Guidance Additional Presenter Information Not all components need to be installed but there are dependencies (i.e. ConfigMgr requires SQL Server 2005)

Hydration Introduction (cont.) Both of these processes are driven by the supplied .HTA’s: gui-Hydrate-Deployment-Point.hta is responsible for the creating the proper directory structure and then populate that directory structure with the correct application files. This repository is called the Hydration Deployment Point. gui-Hydrate-SERVER.hta is responsible for defining many key configuration settings for the server to be hydrated (a.k.a. hydration server). It also initiates the actual build/hydration process Key Message 2 main processes in building out (hydrating) a server Presenter Script Presenter Guidance Additional Presenter Information

Hydration Pre-Requisites Deployment share should satisfy the following requirements: Approximately 30GB of free disk space Internet access to complete the download of required components and updates Source Files for Software products (UNC, CD/DVD) A basic server to be hydrated with the following requirements: Windows Server 2003 with integrated SP2 All patches and updates Left in a workgroup 2GB RAM (or better) 30 GB of free disk space (or better) 1 GHZ CPU (or better) Static IP Address Key Message To build the server with the various components, the hydration process is designed to start with a basic server as well as a file server containing the proper software Presenter Script Identify Hydration Server To build the server with the various components, the hydration process is designed to start with a basic server with the following requirements: Windows Server 2003 with SP2 All hotfixes and updates Left in a workgroup Static IP address and network connectivity to the File Server containing the Hydration Software Depot 2 GB RAM (or better) 30GB of free disk space (or better) 1 GHZ CPU (or better) Identify Location for the Hydration Software Depot The hydration solution uses a file server to house the Hydration Software Depot. The file server should satisfy the following requirements: Approximately 15 GB of free disk space. Most of this will be used to hold the product installation files needed to complete the hydration process. Internet access to complete the download of required components and updates. Once completed, no further Internet access is required. TCP/IP accessibility and name resolution for the required servers. Presenter Guidance Additional Presenter Information
