We are starting to use Windows Deployment services on a windows server 2012 server. We are wanting to know can the server itself sysprep images?
If not, if we run sysprep on the client itself, capture the image, can we set the unattend.xml file on the WDS server image instead of running it in the client when sysprepping the client?
Also, we need a way to update our images. So for example we will have 1 image for windows 7 volume license sysprep. We use that for all workstations. A year down the road we deploy that image to a workstation, run through sysprep and update the windows updates, upgrade the software, etc. We now re sysprep t his machine and capture it to replace the old image.
Is this possible.
What are your recommendations?
