Microsoft Deployment Toolkit - 2012 Update 1 6.1.2373, Do I Need To Recreate The Toolkit Package in ConfigMgr?
MDT 2012 Update 1 was updated to a new version to fix an issue when used in combination with ConfigMgr 2012 CU1.
MDT 2012 Update 1 version 6.1.2373.0 was made available for download on September 19, 2012 and adds support for System Center Configuration Manager 2012 CU1 and System Center Configuration Manager 2012 SP1 Beta. It can be identified as MDT build 6.1.2373.0 in the MDT Workbench console or in the installer program properties. This is the latest version and we recommend all users run the latest version when they can to ensure the smoothest experience during future upgrades.
A common question is whether you need to recreate your packages for use with MDT/ConfigMgr integration. This came up on the MDT/OSD list today and Michael Niehaus responded:
No, you don’t need to. The only changes between Update 1 build 2369 and build 2373 are:
· A fix to the “Create MDT Task Sequence” wizard to make it work with ConfigMgr 2012 CU1.
· Documentation updates indicating support for ConfigMgr 2012 Beta 1 (lab only).
So all the scripts, tools, etc. are otherwise identical. (Well, technically the scripts are different because they all contain the build number, but that’s the only change in them.)
