Deployment 4 Beta 3 Released

The BDD team have announced that Deployment 4 (the code name for the next version of Business Desktop Deployment (BDD) 2007) has been released as BETA 3 and unifies the tools and processes required for desktop and server deployment into a common deployment console and collection of guidance. Previously referenced as BDD.Next and Windows Server Deployment (WSD), Deployment 4 adds integration with recently released Microsoft deployment technologies to create a single path for image creation and deployment, including:

* System Center Configuration Manager 2007 Operating System Deployment
* Windows Automated Installation Kit
* Windows Deployment Services with new multicast technology
* Application Compatibility Toolkit 5.0
* User State Migration Tool 3.0.1
* Windows Server 2008 Server Manager for automated server role definition (coming soon)

    Hi, I have upgrade my BDD 2007 for this new release Deployment 4 beta3 and configure to use my existing distribution share… i just create new build and new deploy point… i wasn’t able to take a WDS image? and when i tried to deploy any image i have an error 438 msg that said “object doesn’t support this property method” ?? if you have any idea?

    thanks

    The image would need to have been created using the Deployment Workbench MMC (preferrably from Deployment 4, but I’m guessing the BDD 2007 version would work as well) in order to have the properties and hooks present to execute the deployment.
