Describe the zero-touch, high-volume deployment strategy for Windows.

Correct Answer

verifed

verified

The zero-touch, high-volume deployment strategy is the most difficult to set up and requires complex tools. The installation does not require the user to start the process (called pull automation). Rather, the installation uses push automation, meaning that a server automatically pushes the installation to a computer when a user is not likely to be sitting at it. The entire remote network installation is automated and no user intervention is required. The process can turn on a computer that is turned off and even works when no OS is installed on the computer or the current OS is corrupted.

Describe what you can do to install Windows 7 if your computer does not have a DVD drive.

Correct Answer

verifed

verified

If the computer does not have a DVD drive, you have several options. Download Windows 7 from the Microsoft web site: Purchase Windows 7 on the Microsoft web site (www.microsoftstore.com) and download it to your computer's hard drive and install it from there. This option assumes the computer already has a working OS installed. Use an external DVD drive. Use an external DVD drive that will most likely connect to the PC by way of a USB port. If the PC does not already have an OS installed, you must boot from this USB port. Copy the installation files to a USB fl ash drive. This method is easy to use if you don't need to boot from the fl ash drive. If you do need to boot from the flash drive, you need to install software that makes the USB fl ash drive bootable and also copy Windows setup files to the drive. Use a DVD drive on another computer on the network. Share the DVD drive on another computer on the network. Then go to the computer that is to receive the Windows installation and locate the DVD drive on the network. Double-click the setup.exe program to run the installation across the network.
