  1. The "Install an existing image package" task sequence option pretty much does that in that order. 

    I would manage the subnets with SCCM then push the SCCM client to the W7 machines. Once they have inventoried the computer name will be in SCCM then you can deploy the task sequence to them. 

    Obviously import the drivers for the hardware and test first!

    Don't see why you would get upgrade licence problems on a wipe n load. 

  2. You could look at using the pre-caching feature to get the content there ahead of time.  

    Note that if they are on WiFi the upgrade might not work. Mine wouldn't authenticate after the first reboot so did not continue the TS. 

  3. I don't see a problem with this. Install the MBAM client in your build or distribute after build time.

    Set up MBAM server and associated group policy.

    When it joins the domain you'll get group policy and the MBAM client will kick in and prompt the user for a PIN and encryption will start.

    You need to add some REG keys to make this happen quickly

    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\FVE\MDOPBitLockerManagement]
    "ClientWakeupFrequency"=dword:00000001
    "StatusReportingFrequency"=dword:00000001
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MBAM]
    "NoStartupDelay"=dword:00000001

  4. Not sure how mature peer cache and branch cache are. I'm also interested to see if anyone is making it work!

    We use 1E Nomad for this purpose and have done for years. We have 1 main DP for 12,000 users because of this.

    If you want to do an OSD at a slow site you build a master PC and ship it to that site. The clients can then pull everything from that PC and not go back to the DP.

     

  5. Caveat: Do not start deleting folders in SCCM without understanding the structure. If you are not short of disk space then leave it alone!

    That said :-) if you wanted to move something large like an OS .WIM file, in:

    Software Library | OS Images | Properties | Data Sources - note the existing path - copy the file to your new location -  change the data source path to the new location then right-click Update Distribution Points - once you are happy it has replicated you can delete the file from the path you noted earlier.
