Hi,
In this post, i explain how to deploy Windows 7 with System Center Configuration Manager Vnext / 2012!
In first time, reminder what's System Center Configuration Vnext / 2012:
System Center Configuration Manager enables a powerful user-centric approach to
client management. This approach addresses the growing reality – that people
want to move fluidly between multiple devices and networks – by making it easier
for IT to support users with configurations tied to their identity instead of to
individual systems or devices. As a result, IT can help people work the way they
want, practically wherever they want—with a familiar experience across different
devices and contexts.
Configuration Manager provides IT a lean, unified
infrastructure to deliver these new capabilities and workloads for client
management, virtualization, and security. The solution puts IT in control of
costs and compliance, providing an evolutionary path to new capabilities that
leverage existing people, processes, and technologies.
Configuration
Manager reduces the cost and complexity of IT compliance by delivering increased
visibility and discovery, and enhanced, IT-definable remediation capabilities.
It’s all designed to help IT simplify delivery of a user-centric approach to
client management. And because it is built by Microsoft engineers who have
exceptional knowledge of Windows, Configuration Manager delivers tight
interoperability with Windows, for more effective and efficient management.
- Supported Operating Systems:Windows Server
