Creating a bootable USB disk from which to install Windows has been an option which required a bit of “manual labour” to get it to work. Microsoft now provides a free downloadable tool called the “Windows 7 USB/DVD Download Tool”. You download and install the tool from Microsoft, obtain the Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 ISO, and use the wizard to create your bootable USB disk. It’s incredibly simple.

“Planning and Deploying Microsoft System Center Service Manager” will be a four day instructor led course intended to provide candidates with the skills needed to plan, implement and support SCSM. Day One of the course introduces key Microsoft Operations Framework methodology, followed by three days on Service Manager and how to integrate SCSM with other System Center solutions. No release date is available for the course yet, but I would watch for it in early 2010.

With so many different applications available, it can be challenging to find assistance when attempting to deploy the application using ConfigMgr or sequence it using App-V. I stumbled across a great website recently that includes user forums and information to assist in deploying a huge range of applications. Check out http://www.appdeploy.com/ and see for yourself.

As an IT technical trainer and consultant, I have spent years working with Microsoft’s Systems Management Server and System Center Configuration Manager. I’ve grown to love the product, and have set up this blog as a place for me to share my random thoughts, discoveries, and ramblings. Please feel free to leave comments.
