Hi,

Thanks for posting in Microsoft MECM Q&A forum.

May we know if you have two seperate MDT environment, non-productive Enviroment and productive Enviroment?

Based on my experience, yes, you can.

==>2.Will there be Problems when i use only the same Domainname as on Productive Server not actually the same Domain because test/non-productive Enviroment?
Based on my experience, we should capture our reference image on a workgroup computer. And then we use a Domain Join Step into the Task Sequence to join your domain when deploying the operating system.

Thanks for your time.
 
Best regards,
Simon
