Instead I made a capture task sequence in SCCM and made bootable media for that TS. I spent a little time trying to deploy the Bootcamp tools and drivers via SCCM but gave it up in the end. I found that I could deploy a new Windows 7 image and install applications etc in the normal way with SCCM via Task Sequence either through the SCCM client using available/required deployments, or through bootable media.
Recently my thoughts turned to updating our Windows image on the Macs and I started thinking about whether I could get SCCM to do it for me. This was painful and time consuming when updating the Windows 7 image. We had been deploying a monolithic Window 7 image via Winclone capture, and JSS deployment. OSX Deployment in usual way, base image with packages installed via Configurations and Policies. I've spent a bit of time on this recently, so first up here's our setup.
Thank you in advance for reading this thread and replying. How easy is it to switch between OS X and Win 7?Īny insight into how you guys approach this will be of a massive benefit. Any issues with obtaining Win 7 drivers for the mac workstations? Do you use the same base image that is deployed to the PC workstations or do you have to build a seperate one for dual booting? Can you guys please share your methods / plans? How do you manage the Win 7 partition? Is it a monolithic image or a base image followed by policies / deployment of applications? what suite of software / tools are you using to manage their dual boot macs. I wanted to ask the administrators here a few questions So far I haven't been able to find any info here that is recent and on the web in regards to using Altiris to manage the Win 7. I've been tasked to see how easily managing a dual boot environment is done We also are using Altiris 7 to manage our fleet of PC workstations. We currently are using Casper 8.71 to manage the mac workstations (OS X 10.6, 10.7 and 10.8) and hopefully moving to Casper 9 when we migrate over to OS X 10.9.
