DHCP, WDS, and PXE are the main and needed components which plays very important role in SCCM OSD. They function and provide a very cool and automatize the OS installations (Network based). So why is the Need? DHCP : DHCP offers automatic ip address assigning functionality to machines at both booting state and online state. DHCP Scope options are one main key component.

Now Common PXE Boot Issues: ·         PXE-E53: No boot filename received   ·         PXE-T01: File not found ·    ...

Hi Guys, In this post  we will focus on about boot images & OSD Process In SCCM. So quick questions are  What are boot images in SCCM? Boot Images are the image used to boot the machine.

Boot Images can contain Drivers like storage drivers, network drivers or any drivers you want to have in boot images, you can simply add or inject those drivers. You can customize the settings of Boot Images or can create your own new Boot Images by integrating MDT with SCCM. Now   How SCCM OSD actually works OSD is a very cool feature of SCCM. Once you do the configuration for OSD, you are ready to do Operating System Deployments. Apart from Boot Imag...
