In this blog post, i will cover creating a production task sequence using the Reference Media we have created from the Reference Share. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

From the DeploymentShare Window, Under Task Sequences<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

On the right-hand side from the ‘Actions’ Tab select ‘New Task Sequence’<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Next, we need to define the Task Sequence ID, this is a unique identifier for the Task Sequence, for this example, i will use ‘PRD-WIN1064X-001’.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Next, we want to define the task sequence name, this is the identifier which will show during the OS Deployment Stage from LiteTouch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The Default for a Client\/End User Deployment would be ‘Standard Client Task Sequence’.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Now we can select the 1809 Reference Build.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Depending on your environment you can either specify the MAC Key or if your using KMS in your environment you can leave the default option ‘Do not specify a product key at this time’ – If you need a Microsoft KMS Key you can use the provided ones from TechNet – Link<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Next, we can define the System Owner and Organisation Name.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Specify a local administrator password, I personally don’t as i have LAPS <\/a>configured in my Lab Environment. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Testing Production Task Sequence<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Testing the Production Task Sequence, I’ve created a Generation Two Virtual Machine within my HypervLAB named ‘hypervlab-pc1’ As we are now deploying ‘Production’ media we want to select the DeploymentShare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Select the new Production Task Sequence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Define the machine name.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

OS being deployed to Virtual Hard Disk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

First Time Boot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Logging into Windows (Local Administrator, Ready for State Restore)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Setup Completed… Device ready to use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
