There are two maybe not competitive but parallel products: Microsoft Deployment Toolkit and System Center Configuration manager. Few years ago I was wondering why they are separate, I why I cannot share Task Sequences between them. And how it usually happens in live, when I was focused on other technologies, MDT and SCCM became best friends.

Let's integrate MDT with SCCM:

  1. If first step you need to download MDT http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=25175
  2. Install MDT on your SCCM server box


    accept the EULA


    Join CEIP if you like

     

  3. Once you completed the installation I would recommend you to complete MDT configuring before integration with the SCCM. Start the Deployment Workbench


    install updates



    you will need to download and install WAIK








    create new deployment share









    leave default values


  4. Create MDT database





    Make sure you will create separate database, DO NOT use existing SCCM DB




  5. Now we are ready to integrate MDT with SCCM


    the Integration tool should discover your server automatically




    After reopening SCCM console in task sequences you should have new cool features:



    How to use them? That's another story …
