After the deployment share is created, you’ll see many sub-folders under the name of the deployment share in the

Deployment Shares tree, as shown in Figure 3.14.

Importing an Operating System

A newly created deployment share is empty and contains no operating system files, drivers, or any other configurations.

Therefore, the first step after creating a new deployment share is to import the files for the operating system intended
for deployment to the target computer(s).

For this scenario, you will import the standard install.wim image as the operating system, by following these steps:

1. Locate installation media that contains the install.wim file. This installation media is typically located on a

physical DVD, USB stick, ISO file, etc.

2. Insert or mount the installation media on the deployment server (where the deployment tools are installed).
3. In the MDT Deployment Workbench, expand the newly created deployment share.
4. Right-click Operating Systems and click Import Operating System. This launches the Import Operating System

Wizard, as shown in Figure 3.15.
