Case Projects
Case Project 2-1: Capturing an Image of Windows Server 2008 with
ImageX
You are an administrator for Badger Novelties. The company is planning to introduce
Windows Server 2008 Standard edition on 10 new servers to be installed in your data center.
To ease the deployment burden, you want to create a custom image to deploy to all of the
new servers. You've heard about ImageX and want to use it to create the image. Using
ImageX, capture an image of a Windows Server 2008 installation and store it on an
available network share. For this project, you can use your lab server for imaging or another
server provided by your instructor.

Case Project 2-1: Creating a Batch File for Configuring Server Core
Installations of Windows Server 2008
After researching Server Core and becoming familiar with it, you decided to create a batch
script that will complete a default configuration of Server Core for you. The following is a
list of settings you want to configure with your script:

Add SAServerCoreAdmin to the local Administrators group.
Install the Hyper-V role and the Telnet Client feature.
Activate Windows.
With this information, create a batch script to configure the required settings.
Solution:
In Notepad or another text editor, enter the following commands:
Net User SAServerCoreAdmin P@ssw0rd /add
Net LocalGroup administrators SAServerCoreAdmin /Add
WMIC ComputerSystem Where name=%computername% call Rename
Name=SERVERCORE
start /w Ocsetup Hyper-V
start /w ocsetup TelnetClient
Slmgr.vbs ato
Shutdown /r /f /t 30
Save the text file as setup.bat.
