14. Release 2

15. Operating System Deployment
Service Pack 1 Brought a Platform Support Update
Windows Vista Service Pack 1
Upgrade Advisor report support
OS package support
AIK updates, WinPE etc.
Windows Server 2008
Managed Client OS
Host for Site Roles
R2 Opened New Features
Multicast
Unknown Computer Support
‘Run As’ support added

16. Unknown Computer Support
Allows unmanaged systems to be recognized and receive an OS Deployment
Allows computers without a ConfigMgr ‘07 client to be provisioned with an OS by ConfigMgr ‘07 OSD
Exclusion list for unknown computer support availability
A list of computer MAC addresses to which the PXE server should not send task sequences to install an operating system
Exclusion list members are ignored

17. Multicast Services Overview
Simultaneously send data to multiple clients rather than sending a copy of the data to each client over a separate connection
Allows multiple computers to download an OS image package as it is multicast by the DP
Clients can join a multicast session already in progress
The multicast feature must be enabled on the specific ConfigMgr ‘07 DP
Branch DP cannot use multicast
ConfigMgr ‘07 Requirements
ConfigMgr SP1 and R2 installed to site
WDS extension installed on Windows Server 2008 site systems

18. Multicast Prerequisites
Description
Windows Server 2008
- Must be running on DP enabled for multicast
Windows Deployment Services (WDS)
Must be installed before multicast is enabled on the distribution point server
WDS transport server role service is required for multicast operating system deployment support
Internet Information Services (IIS) with extensions
must be installed before multicast is enabled on the distribution point server
- ISAPI extensions and IIS 6 management compatibility must be installed
Network firewall configuration
UDP ports used by multicast are accessible by ConfigMgr ‘07 clients
Port config link
Allow clients to transfer content from this distribution point using BITS, HTTP, and HTTPS
- Operating system deployment package transfer using IIS requires that Allow clients to transfer content from this distribution point using BITS, HTTP, and HTTPS (required for device clients and Internet-based clients) be enable

19. 'Run As' in the Task Sequence
In ConfigMgr ‘07, task sequences run only in the context of the local system account
Network Access account is used to access required packages located on DPs
Network Access account needs to access DP or Task Sequence will fail
In R2…
Now possible in task sequences to run with credentials other than the local system account
Powerful way to deliver elevation to special situations
Run As feature cannot be imported by a Configuration Manager 2007 site server due to Task Sequence schema changes
This account is required if you add the step Run Command Line to a task sequence, but want to not use Local System

Client Status Reporting
Built upon the scenarios in the SMS 2003 Client Health Tool
External service which queries site systems and ConfigMgr clients for client status on agent activity and overall health
Reports on key indicators of client activity to help administrators monitor and maintain the health of their ConfigMgr clients
Client Status Reporting can:
Identify clients that are online but are not requesting policy
Provide a number of reports that detail the status of clients on your site
Identify clients that are online but have nonfunctioning client components
Identify clients that are online but do not have up-to-date discovery or inventory records
Identifies clients that are offline
Is not dependent on ConfigMgr ‘07 site systems
CSR will not be affected by problems with backlogged site systems which could cause traditional reporting mechanisms to generate inaccurate results
Uses a number of data sources for its analysis, including:
Data from ConfigMgr ‘07 site database - inventory, discovery, and heartbeat data
Gather and analyze policy request log files from MPs
Can also check the status and activity of ConfigMgr ‘07 client components
