You deploy Windows 7 by using Operating System Deployment (OSD). The development task sequence contains steps to install software updates and Applications. The amount of time required to deploy the Windows 7 image has increased significantly during the last six months. You need to recommend a solution to reduce the amount of time it takes to deploy the image. What should you recommend?
A.
Synchronize software updates before deploying the image.
B.
Use offline servicing for the image.
C.
Create a new automatic deployment rule.
D.
Add an additional Install Software Updates step to the deployment task sequence.
B
I got this question on the test, but as a multi choice question with an added “E. Upgrade the image to Windows 7 SP1”. Is that alternative also correct?
Doing that would also reduce the amount of time required to deploy the image as requested, so it seems correct too.
