Specifies the password that should be used with a Run Command Line step that is configured to run as a user. |
| SQLServer |
The identity of the computer running SQL Server that performs a database query that returns property values from columns in the table specified in the Table property. The query is based on parameters specified in the Parameters and ParameterCondition properties. The instance of SQL Server on the computer is specified in the Instance property. |
| SQLShare |
The name of a shared folder on the computer running SQL Server (specified by the SQLServer property). The credentials used for authentication are provided by the UserDomain, UserID, and UserPassword properties (for LTI and ZTI) or by the Configuration Manager Advanced Client account credentials (ZTI only). |
| StoredProcedure |
The name of the stored procedure used when performing a database query that returns property values from columns in the table or view. The stored procedure is located in the database specified in the Database property. The computer running SQL Server is specified in the SQLServer property. The instance of SQL Server on the computer is specified in the Instance property. The name of the stored procedure is specified in the StoredProcedure property. |
| SupportsHyperVRole |
Specifies whether the processor resources on the target computer can support the Hyper-V server role in Windows Server. This property is True if the value for the following properties is set to TRUE: |
| SupportsNX |
Specifies whether the processor resources on the target computer support the No Execute (NX) technology. The NX technology is used in processors to segregate areas of memory for use by either storage of processor instructions (code) or for storage of data. This property is set using information from the CPUID interface. |
| SupportsVT |
Specifies whether the processor resources on the target computer support the Virtualization Technology (VT) feature. VT is used to support current virtualized environments, such as Hyper-V. This property is set using information from the CPUID interface. |
| Supports64Bit |
Specifies whether the processor resources on the target computer support Windows 64-bit operating systems. Most modern virtualization environments require 64-bit processor architecture. This property is set using information from the CPUID interface. |
| SysVolPath |
Specifies the fully qualified, non-UNC path to a directory on a fixed disk of the local computer. |
| Table |
The name of the table or view to be used in performing a database query that returns property values from columns in the table or view. The query is based on parameters specified in the Parameters and ParameterCondition properties. The table or view is located in the database specified in the Database property. The computer running SQL Server is specified in the SQLServer property. The instance of SQL Server on the computer is specified in the Instance property. |
| TimeZoneName |
The time zone in which the target computer is located. This value is inserted into the appropriate configuration settings in Unattend.xml. |
| ToolRoot |
Specifies the UNC path to the Tools\ proc_arch folder (where proc_arch is the processor architecture of the currently running operating system and can have a value of x86 or x64), which is immediately beneath the root of the folder structure specified in the DeployRoot property. The Tools\ proc_arch folder contains utilities that MDT uses during the deployment process. |
| TPMOwnerPassword |
The TPM password (also known as the TPM administration password ) for the owner of the target computer. The password can be saved to a file or stored in AD DS. |
| UILanguage |
The default language to be used with the target operating system. If not specified, the Deployment Wizard uses the language configured in the image being deployed. |
| UserLocale |
The user locale to be used with the target operating system. If not specified, the Deployment Wizard uses the user locale configured in the image being deployed. |
| USMTOfflineMigration |
This property determines whether MDT uses USMT to perform an offline user state migration. In an offline migration, the capture is performed in Windows PE instead of the existing operating system. |
| UUID |
The Universal Unique Identifier (UUID) stored in the System Management BIOS of the target computer. |
| VMName |
Specifies the name of the VM where MDT is running. This property is only available when the Hyper-V Integration Components are installed and running. |
| VMPlatform |
Specifies specific information about the virtualization environment for the target computer when the target computer is a VM. The VM platform is determined by using WMI. |
| VRefresh |
The vertical refresh rate for the monitor on the target computer. The vertical refresh rate is specified in Hertz. In the example, the value 60 indicates that the vertical refresh rate of the monitor is 60 Hz. This value is inserted into the appropriate configuration settings in Unattend.xml. |
| VSSMaxSize |
This property is used to pass a value to the maxsize parameter of the vssadmin resize shadowstorage command in the Vssadmin command. The maxsize parameter is used to specify the maximum amount of space on the target volume that can be used for storing shadow copies. For more information on the maxsize parameter, see Vssadmin resize shadowstorage. |
| WindowsSource |
MDT uses this property to set the location of the sources\sxs folder in a network shared folder that contains the operating system source files. This property is used when: |
| WipeDisk |
Specifies whether the disk should be wiped. If WipeDisk is TRUE, the ZTIWipeDisk.wsf script will clean the disk using the Format command. The Format command is not the most "secure" way of wiping the disk. |
| WSUSServer |
This is the name of the Windows Server Update Services (WSUS) server that the target computer should use when scanning for, downloading, and installing updates. |
| XResolution |
The horizontal resolution of the monitor on the target computer, specified in pixels. In the example, the value 1024 indicates the horizontal resolution of the monitor is 1,024 pixels. This value is inserted into the appropriate configuration settings in Unattend.xml. |
| YResolution |
The vertical resolution of the monitor on the target computer, specified in pixels. In the example, the value 768 indicates the vertical resolution of the monitor is 768 pixels. This value gets inserted into the appropriate configuration settings in Unattend.xml. |
