A. Incorrect: When you boot a reference client computer from a WDS capture image, the Windows Deployment Services Image Capture Wizard enables you to capture a system
image from that computer and export it to the WDS server. It does not directly specify the source directory in which the WIM file resides, specify whether setup or Sysprep files
are required, or move the file to the distribution share.
B. Incorrect: The SCCM 2007 Task Sequence Editor creates and modifi es task sequences. In the New Task Sequence Wizard, you can select Install An Existing Image, Build A
Reference Operating System Image, or Create A New Custom Task Sequence. However the wizard creates task sequences. It does not directly specify the source directory in
which the WIM file resides, specify whether setup or Sysprep files are required, or move the file to the distribution share.
C. Incorrect: You access the Create Distribution Share Wizard from the MDT 2010 Deployment Workbench console. This wizard lets you create a distribution share that will hold the WIM file, but it does not specify the source directory in which the WIM file resides, specify whether setup or Sysprep files are required, or move the file to the distribution share.
D. Correct: You access the New OS Wizard from the MDT 2010 Deployment Workbench console. This wizard lets you specify the source directory in which the WIM file resides,

WDS creates install, boot, discover, and capture images. Which of these do you need to install on bootable removable media?
- A.
Install
- B.
Boot (standard boot image)
- C.
Discover
- D.
Capture
Correct Answer
C. DiscoverExplanation
A. Incorrect: WDS deploys install images across the network. You do not need to install them on removable bootable media.
B. Incorrect: When you boot a target computer from the network, WDS presents you with a boot menu on the target machine that enables you to boot from a boot image. This
is delivered over the network and you do not need to install this image from bootable removable media. Note that the choice specifies a standard boot image. Discover and
capture images are special types of boot image.
C. Correct: If your target computers are not PXE-compliant, they cannot boot from the network. Therefore, you need to boot them from a discover image on removable, bootable media.
D. Incorrect: If you want to capture the image of a reference computer, you boot it from a capture image. Capture images appear on the boot menu in the same way as standard boot images and you do not need to install them on bootable removable media.Rate this question:
