Using Dell Command | Integration Suite for

System Center

Before you begin using Dell Command | Integration Suite for System Center, make sure that the target Dell client systems are registered

as Configure Manager clients and present under All Systems on the Configuration Manager console. For more information on configuring

clients through Configuration Manager, see the Microsoft TechNet article at technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg682144.

You can use Dell Command | Integration Suite for System Center to perform the following tasks:

• Create Dell Windows PE boot images

• Create Dell client driver packages

• Import Dell client packages

• Create a bare-metal task sequence

Topics:

• Managing And Updating Distribution Points

• Creating A Dell WinPE Boot Image

• Creating A Dell Client Driver Package

• Importing Dell Command | Configure SCE Packages

• Importing Dell Command | Monitor

• Creating A Task Sequence

• Configuring Task Sequence Actions

Managing And Updating Distribution Points

Update the distribution points before creating a task sequence. To update and manage distribution points:

1. Launch the Configuration Manager console.

2. Click Software Library.

3. Expand Overview > Application Management. > Packages and click Dell Client Deployment.

4. Right-click Client Custom Reboot Script and click Distribute Content.

The Distribute Content Wizard screen is displayed.

5. Click Next and follow the on-screen instructions to distribute content to the distribution points.

6. If the packages were not distributed while they were being created, repeat step 3 and step 4 to ensure that the client system is able to

access the packages during an operating system installation.

Creating A Dell WinPE Boot Image

The Dell Command | WinPE Driver Library Import feature allows you to create Dell Windows Preinstallation Environment (WinPE) boot

images in two ways: using the streamlined, Dell Update/Support site import option to import up to five cab files at a time for automated

injection into your WinPE boot image, or by using the Local Driver Library option to import the drivers included in one locally-stored cab

file at a time.

NOTE:

You must use an account that has administrator privileges in order to create a Dell WinPE Boot Image. User

accounts without administrator privileges will encounter permission errors involving the SMS share and installation

folder.

NOTE: If you are using the Local Driver Library option, you must download the Dell Command | Deploy (WinPE) Driver

Library file fromdell.com/downloads before following the steps in this section. If you are using the Dell Update/Support

site option to insert driver libraries into a WinPE package, you do not need to download the driver library file in advance

of the process described below.

NOTE: Ensure that Microsoft Windows Deployment Kit is installed before proceeding with this feature.
