Last week we told you about the Microsoft Assessment and Planning Toolkit 4.0, a software-agent-free tool that assesses IT environments for various platform migrations and virtualization.
Today let's turn our attention to another newly updated tool: the Microsoft Deployment Toolkit 2010 Beta 2 (a.k.a. MDT).
- Manage multiple Deployment Shares from a single Deployment Workbench including local Deployment Shares or from a network location including standalone DFS shares
- Replicate content between Deployment Shares through "Linked Deployment Shares" and use selection profiles to manage what content gets replicated
- Multiple users can now interact with the same Deployment Share
- Create folders to manage Drivers, Task Sequences, Operating Systems, and OS Packages
- Drag-and-drop, copy-and-paste, and cut-and-paste between folders or between Deployment Shares
