This is the first of two webcasts on Microsoft System Center operating system deployment. Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager 2007 is the successor to Microsoft Systems Management Server 2003. In this session, we start with a look at how Configuration Manager 2007 provides control over the operating system for the enterprise. With an architecture that allows for granular control over deployment, Configuration Manager 2007 can help you get the right desktop image, applications, and configuration to the right hardware. Next, we manage the deployment server, and discuss the details of how to use the System Center Configuration Manager Microsoft Management Console (MMC) to set up a deployment task sequence. This is also an opportune time to talk about securing Configuration Manager 2007. Finally, we show you how to create a task sequence and deploy an operating system in a bare metal installation.
