Microsoft IT Windows 7 install experiences

Software CompatibilityUser-driven by reviewing software compatibility on website
Data MigrationPrimary solution: in-place data migration
Users needing to migrate using USB or server shares is a self-driven solution using Windows Easy Transfer in Windows Backup or manually coping files
Hardware CompatibilityUser-driven by reviewing hardware compatibility on website
Network InstallUser-driven by reviewing options on website
Use f12 for WDS (and later OSD)
Copy image from server share and install locally
Remote users must make a remote connection into corporate office, copy down image, and install locally
Remote Domain Join & ProvisioningUser-driven, multistep process requiring VPN connection, join the domain, and reboots

Pull and Push OS Installations

Windows 8.1 OS Update and OS Deployment Supported By:• System Center 2012 R2 Configuration Manager• System Center 2012 Configuration Manager Service Pack 1 (with
CU3)
Pull Installations
Microsoft IT chose to use a self-service method for Update, where users initiate the upgrade from a distribution point at their convenience.
Push Installations
Because Configuration Manager supports “push” installations, the Windows 8.1 Update can be applied to systems in the environment as a scheduled activity.

Applications installs at Microsoft
A history of enabling self-service user experiences
Early daysFile share for Microsoft apps: \\productsLOB apps & 3rd party apps distributed through multiple channel
Over time, improved user search to find applicationsSimple web UI (http://productsweb) put on top of \\products sharesContent replicated globally with DFS to ease installation times LOB apps – most moved to web apps, so ‘distribution’ not needed

Deploying OS Update Application Package
• SCCM: Launch Windows Setup.exe + Parameters:• /auto:upgrade - Setup will run without user intervention• /noautoexit - If an error is encountered during setup, don’t exit.
Instead wait at appropriate wizard screen for user input.
• /performdu - Automatically download any applicable dynamic updates.
Note: The /auto:upgrade switch causes Setup to skip OOBE. As a result the auto update setting for the Store is turned off. Re-enable via registry key:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WindowsStore\WindowsUpdate [AutoDownload] Value = 1
