MDT2012 Update 1 : Change settings.xml using PowerShell

  • Article

 

The default PowerShell cmdlet to create the media deploypoint doesn’t include option to select the boot image feature packs.

But you can dynamically edit the settings.xml using the following PowerShell command before generating the ISO image.

 

$xmlFile = \\MDTServer\DeploymentShare\Control\Settings.xml

$xmlDoc = [XML](gc $xmlFile)

$xmldoc.Settings.'Boot.X86.FeaturePacks' = "winpe-dismcmdlets,winpe-enhancedstorage,winpe-fonts-legacy,winpe-fontsupport-ja-jp,winpe-fontsupport-ko-kr,winpe-fontsupport-zh-cn,winpe-fontsupport-zh-hk,winpe-fontsupport-zh-tw,winpe-mdac,winpe-netfx4,winpe-powershell3,winpe-pppoe,winpe-rndis,winpe-securebootcmdlets,winpe-storagewmi"

$xmldoc.Settings.'Boot.X64.FeaturePacks' = "winpe-dismcmdlets,winpe-dot3svc,winpe-enhancedstorage,winpe-fonts-legacy,winpe-fontsupport-ja-jp,winpe-fontsupport-ko-kr,winpe-fontsupport-zh-cn,winpe-fontsupport-zh-hk,winpe-fontsupport-zh-tw,winpe-mdac,winpe-netfx4,winpe-powershell3,winpe-pppoe,winpe-rndis,winpe-securebootcmdlets,winpe-storagewmi"

$xmldoc.Save($xmlFile)
