MDT 2012 "customsettings.ini" Switches

  • Article

I recently spent a lot of time working with MDT and figuring out quite a bit of command switches in order to manipulate the deployment outcome. I listed them below. I will keep adding to this list, and if anyone has any that they do not see, please feel free to send it to me and I will make sure credit is given! Most of these are self-explanatory, but I have done my best to put them together in "categories" and given brief explanation to some.

Standard Switches:

OSInstall=YES/NO
SkipAdminPassword=YES/NO
SkipApplications=YES/NO
SkipAppsOnUpgrade=YES/NO
SkipBDDWelcome=YES/NO
SkipBitLocker=YES/NO
SkipCapture=YES/NO
SkipComputerName=YES/NO
SkipComputerBackup=YES/NO
SkipDeploymentType=YES/NO
DeploymentType=NEWCOMPUTER
SkipTaskSequence=YES/NO
TaskSequenceID=TaskIDNumber

SkipPackageDisplay=YES/NO
SkipProductKey=YES/NO
SkipSummary=YES/NO

SkipFinalSummary=YES/NO

 Domain Membership Switches:

SkipDomainMembership=YES/NO
JoinDomain=EnterDomainName
DomainAdmin=Administrator
DomainAdminDomain=Domain
DomainAdminPassword=Pa$$w0rd

Language and Locale Switches:

SkipTimeZone=YES/NO
TimeZoneName=Eastern Standard Time

SkipLocaleSelection=YES/NO
KeyboardLocale=en-US
UserLocale=en-US
UILanguage=en-US

User Data Migration Switches:

SkipUserData=YES/NO

UserDataLocation=Auto Or UserDataLocation=NETWORK
UDShare=\\ServerName\MigData$
UDDir=%ComputerName%

Bitlocker Drive Encryption Switches: There is a little more to this than just adding the commands. As soon as I can, I will add those steps HERE!

BDEDriveLetter=C:
BDEDriveSize= 2000
BDEInstall=TPM
BDERecoveryKey=FALSE
BDERecoveryPassword=FALSE
BDERequired=YES

 

There will be more to come, and I will also be adding the custom switches for Hardware Type, Machine Make/Model and Architecture :-)
