Question

Scenario: CGE needs to define its management process for desktop image releases. Some groups need a process for version control that includes thorough testing prior to production. Why does using Windows Deployment Services and deploying a standard base image to virtual desktops help manage the image versioning process?

Options

  • AIt enables rapid rollback.
  • BIt automates deployment of current and legacy OS versions.
  • CIt leverages Hyper-V snapshots.
  • DIt automatically deploys the latest drivers and patches.

Why each option

Using Windows Deployment Services to deploy a standard base image helps manage image versioning by ensuring that deployed desktops receive images pre-loaded with current drivers and patches.

AIt enables rapid rollback.

WDS deploys images, but it doesn't inherently provide a 'rapid rollback' feature for individual deployed desktops; rolling back would involve deploying an older image, which is a separate management action.

BIt automates deployment of current and legacy OS versions.

While WDS can deploy various OS versions, this option describes the capability to deploy different OS types, not specifically how it aids in managing iterative versions of a *single* desktop image through testing and production cycles.

CIt leverages Hyper-V snapshots.

Hyper-V snapshots are a feature of the hypervisor itself for virtual machine state management, not a direct function leveraged by WDS for its image deployment or version management process.

DIt automatically deploys the latest drivers and patches.Correct

When managing image versions, a key aspect is keeping the base image current with necessary updates. By preparing a standard base image with the latest drivers and patches, WDS automates the distribution of this current, tested image version to virtual desktops, contributing to a controlled versioning process.
