Windows Deployment sample scripts

  • Articolo

The following scripts are used in Apply Windows images, Build to order: Use online servicing to make final updates to individual PCs, and Deploy Windows images: Activate and secure PCs to set up PCs by using a Windows image file, and to configure push-button reset features. They can be downloaded from the OEM Partner Center.

Most of these code samples are plain-text, and can be saved from Notepad. A few samples, where noted, must be saved in the UTF-8 file format.

Samples are provided for both UEFI-based and BIOS-based PCs.

Deployment scripts

These scripts are used in Apply Windows images, Build to order: Use online servicing to make final updates to individual PCs, and Deploy Windows images: Activate and secure PCs to set up PCs by using a Windows image file.

CreatePartitions-(firmware).txt

Use these scripts together with DiskPart to format and set up the hard disk partitions for Windows, including recovery tools. Adjust the partition sizes to fill the drive as necessary.

  • UEFI:

    Creates the Windows RE Tools partition, the System, MSR, Windows, and Recovery image partitions.

    This script temporarily assigns these drive letters: WinRE Tools = T, System=S, Windows=C, and Recovery=R. If you’re deploying to PCs with unformatted hard drives, change the Windows drive letter to a letter that’s near the end of the alphabet, such as W, to avoid drive letter conflicts. Do not use X, because this drive letter is reserved for Windows PE. After the PC reboots, the Windows partition is assigned the letter C, and the other partitions don’t receive drive letters.

    The following diagram shows the resulting partition configuration:

    rem == CreatePartitions-UEFI.txt ==
rem == These commands are used with DiskPart to
rem    set up the drive and ecreate five partitions
rem    for a UEFI/GPT-based PC.

  • BIOS:

    Creates the System, Windows, and Recovery image partitions.

    This script temporarily assigns these drive letters: System=S, Windows=C, and Recovery=R. If you’re deploying to PCs with unformatted hard drives, change the Windows drive letter to a letter that’s near the end of the alphabet, such as W, to avoid drive letter conflicts. Do not use X, because this drive letter is reserved for Windows PE. After the PC reboots, the Windows partition is assigned the letter C, and the other partitions don’t receive drive letters.

    The following diagram shows the resulting partition configuration:

    rem == CreatePartitions-BIOS.txt ==
rem == These commands are used with DiskPart to

rem    for a BIOS/MBR-based PC.

ApplyImage-(firmware).bat

Use this script after creating the hard disk partitions to apply a Windows image to the PC and to set up each of the partitions. Files from the Windows image are used to configure each of the newly-created partitions.

  • UEFI:

    rem == ApplyImage-UEFI.bat ==

rem == These commands deploy a specified Windows
rem    image file to the Windows partition, and configure
rem    the system partition.

rem    Usage:   ApplyImage WimFileName

rem == Copy the image to the recovery partition ==
md R:\RecoveryImage
copy %1 R:\RecoveryImage\Install.wim

rem == Apply the image to the Windows partition ==
dism /Apply-Image /ImageFile:"R:\RecoveryImage\Install.wim" /Index:1 /ApplyDir:C:\

rem == Copy boot files to the System partition ==

:rem == Register the location of the
:rem    push-button reset recovery image. ==

HideRecoveryPartitions-(firmware).txt

Use these scripts with DiskPart to hide the recovery partitions after they have been configured.

  • UEFI:

    rem === HideRecoveryPartitions-UEFI.txt ===
select disk 0
select partition 1
remove
set id=de94bba4-06d1-4d40-a16a-bfd50179d6ac

Push-button reset configuration files

These configuration files are used in Apply Windows images and Deploy Windows images: Activate and secure PCs to help support bare-metal recovery.

Save the originals in the E:\Deployment\RecoveryImage-BIOS and E:\Deployment\RecoveryImage-UEFI folders where E is the drive letter of the external USB hard drive. These files will be copied to the recovery image partition folder: R:\RecoveryImage\.

Each of the code samples in this section must be saved in the UTF-8 file format.

ResetConfig.xml

ResetConfig.xml is a configuration file for the push-button reset feature. This file loads the other configuration files, and defines the partition configuration after you have configured a bare metal reset.

This XML file must be saved using the UTF-8 file format. For example, in Notepad, click File, and then click Save As. In the Encoding box, click UTF-8, and save this file. Do not use ANSI coding.

Each XML file must be named ResetConfig.xml. If you are deploying both UEFI and BIOS PCs, create separate folders to store each of these files.
