The Magic of The PiXiE Stick My boss has XP. She needs Windows 7 before she lands. I want to enable my remote workers to migrate to Windows 7 without sending in their laptops. I have 10 machines I want to pilot Windows 7 on.
Planning for Windows 7 and Office 2010
The Deployment Project… Do I need to invest in test hardware, personnel, and infrastructure? How is this going to impact users and the helpdesk? Do I replace all of my users’ hardware? Testing Process OperationsReadiness InfrastructureRemediation Do my users need to send their hardware to IT or be without their PCs for a day? Do I need to build and maintain an image for each hardware class? ProjectProcess andTeam Guidance Deployment Image Engineering Business Casefor Deployment How do I think about policies, data, and security now? Are my applications going to work? ApplicationManagement Office, too? Does that mean more testing and images? Security Do my techs need to manuallymigrate everyone’s files at their desk or in the lab? OfficeDeployment Migration
…It Depends Windows architecture and deployment tools change for a reason Test? Hardware? Image management? User data migration? Hardware specs and application requirements pretty static for 3+ years Security updates are easier to integrate into the project
…What it Means Refresh existing hardware - don’t wait for hardware replacement Make the process fast and not disruptive for users Test wisely, but don’t expect things to break as often as before That means fewer helpdesk calls than with previous OS deployments
The Migration Process Assess hardware and applications, and plan for the new features or services you want Plan Prepare applications, infrastructure, and images for deployment and migrate users Deliver Expand functionality coverage, transition applications, and manage the desktop environment Operate

Office Customization ToolBuild deployment packages to fit business requirements
Improved Application Virtualization SupportTighter integration with Microsoft App-V Potential to simplify deployment & management App-V investments improve support of Office 2010* Office 2010 requires App-V 4.6 available in H1 2010 App-V requires deployment specific sequencing Features improved with App-V 4.6/Office 2010 include: Outlook: Fast Search using Windows Desktop Search URL Protocol Handlers (Mailto, feeds, webcal(s)) Send to Mail integration Enable advanced account configuration SharePoint - Directly open/edit/save hosted documents OneNote - Send to OneNote print driver All - Activation model support *Click to Run offerings leverage App-V
Deployment Benefits of Application Virtualization Faster Delivery of Applications at Deploy Time Immediate Implementation Across Windows Versions Reduced Time for Testing and Packaging Minimize user disruption and speed up migration times with faster application delivery Get to a single OS image more easily with less work to automate application installation and less time needed to deliver applications Get value immediately as you work through your applications for Windows 7 deployment Implement App-V to Windows XP and Windows Vista users before Windows 7 is fully deployed Give users access to new applications before Windows 7 is delivered  Reduce testing times with Application Isolation Speed up application packaging for deployment with App-V sequencing Sequence applications for compatibility across Windows versions
Desktop Virtualization and Compatibility Concerns
Windows Server 2008 R2 + KMS = Office 2010, Windows XP, Vista and 7 Activation What it provides: Better license management Visibility of activations Consistent activation approach for Windows and Office NOT monitored by Microsoft What it requires: Plan for your activation method  Key Management Service (KMS) Multiple Activation Key (MAK)

  4. OMPM – existing toolNew tools are OEAT and CIOEAT aimed at It Pros to scan desktops to get a view of add-ins and programs that interface with Office – this tool will verify with the ISV compatibility list, thus highlighting areas for drill downCI – targeted at developers to locate potential breaking points based on known changes being introduced
  5. The Office Migration Planning Manager (OMPM) is a resource provided by Microsoft to help customers and partners size up potential file migration issues.This slide is offered to provide a snapshot of what OMPM provides – the tools drill down module provides additional details this tool and how it can be leveraged.OMPM is a collection of tools that enables you to prepare your environment for migration to the 2010 Microsoft Office system. OMPM checks for, and reports on, file properties to help you analyze your environment and determine any issues that you might experience converting from Office 97-Office 2003 file formats to the new 2010 Office system file format. OMPM includes the following features: OMPM focuses primarily on converting old files to the new file formats. When OMPM shows an error or highlights a warning on a file; That does not mean the file will not open in the 2010 Office system (almost all older files can open in compatibility mode). It only means that saving it into the new Open XML format might cause problems. OMPM has 4 components discussed in more detail below: 1. Scanner 2. Database 3. Reporting Tools Seehttp://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc179179.aspx for additional information (Note only the Office 2007 is available until near Office 2010 RTM – this version can be used to begin assessments)

  7. Realizing Office 2010 – This is an opportunity area for partners to help customers package, deploy, and manage Office 2010At a high level there are 3 key areas to begin planning an Office installation – System, Application, and FilePartners have an opportunity to develop a packaged service offering to enable the customers to readily configure and management an Office 2010 deployment.Configuration of Office 2010 (focused on VL skus) enables partners to build a custom deployment package to fit the specific needs of the customer – this enables a consistent package of Office and supporting elements to be installed in a consistent manager. The Office Customization Tool (OCT) is the primary tool used to build these packages – additionally the config.xml element can be leveraged for some packaging such as MUI language packs. OCT is only offered with VL products – but it can activate features, enter MAK keys, set Outlook profiles, and more. The next slides will look at the tool in a bit more detail. Partners have the ability to help customers build or at least understand the options for using the OCT tool and help them design the best package.Controlling the environment is something to consider at time of deployment but also ongoing to keep system required actions in place – it can range from setting up trusted locations to automatically trust documents to de-activating select features of the Office applications. These settings are enforced for the user allowing the admin to keep the environment well managed.The actual deployment of Office, if well planned, is a very simple activity that can be carried in with various mechanisms. The selection of the method will be based on the size and scope of the deployment and the tools available for use. It is important to note that the more advanced methods used SCE or SCCM will make it possible to easily track the deployments in an environment.The partner has an opportunity to offers services to package these activities in a single seamless process for customers, enabling them to keep focused on their core business.
  8. Group Policy Admin templatesBy setting policies, you can define and maintain a particular Office 2010 configuration on users' computers. Unlike other customizations, such as default settings that are distributed in a transform (also known as an .mst file), policies are reapplied every time that a user logs on to the network. Alternatively, policies can be reapplied at some other interval that is set by the administrator. Users cannot edit the registry to change the policies. You can set policies that apply to the local computer (and to every user of that computer), or you can set policies that apply only to individual users. You set per-computer policies under Computer Configuration in the Group Policy snap-in. Per-computer policies are applied the first time that any user logs on to the network from that computer. You set per-user policies under User Configuration in the Group Policy snap-in. Per-user policies are applied when the specified user logs on to the network from any computer. To use an Office 2010 policy template, you must load the template in the Group Policy Microsoft Management Console snap-in.
  9. The Office Customization Tool (OCT) is used to create patches that customize the Office 2010 installation. The OCT patches are slipstreamed in at the install time, or can be applied post install for maintenance of existing installations: * Using the Office Customization Tool (OCT) * Using the Config.xml file as an override feature * Setting up command-line options * Enabling group policies Using the OCT to configure user settings establishes the initial default values for the settings. Users can modify most of the settings after Office is installed. You can use the OCT to provide default user settings for the following Office applications: * Microsoft Office Access 2010 * Microsoft Office Outlook 2010Printing Assistant * Microsoft Office Excel 2010 * Microsoft Office Groove 2010 * Microsoft Office InterConnect 2010 * Microsoft Office InfoPath 2010 * Microsoft Office 2010 system * Microsoft Office OneNote 2010 * Microsoft Office Outlook 2010 * Microsoft Office PowerPoint 2010 * Microsoft Office Project 2010 * Microsoft Office Publisher 2010 * Microsoft Office SharePoint Designer 2010 * Microsoft Office Visio 2010 * Microsoft Office Word 2010
  10. Often sold as silver bulletStill a maturing technology – related to consumer versions via Click to RunThis is virtualized desktop – this is just virtualizing the appsEnables coexistingSingle maintenance/deployment scenarioFYI - Core of work might be referred to as “office redistributable”Improvements to custom code at setupCreated a redistributable to facilitate volume activation when Office is virtualizedPerformance improvements that accrue to virtualized OfficeAlso, as a result of work done to build Click to Run offer, improved the App-V experience (also recognized through locally installed redistributable):
  11. Speaker Script:Let’s revisit our physical and manual migration. Remember how long that took?Now lets use Application Virtualization. We’ll start at 3:47 PM this time. Using Application Virtualization, we don’t actually “install” the application. That means that we don’t need to uninstall Office 2007 and to remove any remnants of the application, we have to delete it from our local application cache. Now I am deleting Office Word 2010 from my Application Virtualization local cache. Once that has been deleted, he just need to wait a moment for the application to be re-published for use.Now we can go to our start menu and see that Word 2010 is available and launch the application. Notice when we launch the application, App-V automatically looks for the most up-to-date version then launches the application. The application startup times are quite similar to the physically-installed version and within about one minute, we were able to launch the virtual instance of Word 2010, and the same would go for other Office 2010 programs. The application is streamed as it is launched with the most updated version and we can accomplish in about one minute what it previously took us about 20 minutes to do.
  12. Office Activation TechnologiesOffice Activation Technologies provide methods for activating products licensed under Microsoft Volume Licensing programs. Most Office Volume Licensing customers are familiar with Volume License Keys (VLKs) that were issued under a specific license agreement. This key effectively "bypassed" activation. For Office 2010, Office Activation Technologies help automate and manage the activation process while addressing the piracy and product key management problems that arose with keys issued for Office Enterprise 2007. You can use the following methods to activate Office 2010 by using Office Activation Technologies, which are the same methods used for Windows Vista and later versions of Windows.Key Management Service (KMS). KMS uses a KMS host key to activate a KMS host computer and establish a local activation service in your environment. Office 2010 connects to the local KMS host for activation.Multiple Activation Key (MAK). With a MAK, clients activate Office 2010 online with Microsoft’s hosted activation servers or by telephone.A combination of KMS and MAK.KMS enables organizations to perform local activations for computers in a managed environment without each PC connecting to Microsoft individuallyThis Product Key allows multiple activations against the Clearing House or via a Proxy Activation Server. It is useful where customers do not want or require a Key Management Service In 2007 activation was only required for Retail and OEM.Now, ALL editions must be activated (physical and virtual)Privacy is of utmost importance. Data that is sent during activation is NOT traceable back to the computer or user. It is used to confirm you have a legally licensed copy of the software then aggregated for statistical analysis. It is NOT used to identify or contact you.Office Activation Technologies provide methods for activating products licensed under Microsoft Volume Licensing programs. Most Office Volume Licensing customers are familiar with Volume License Keys (VLKs) that were issued under a specific license agreement. This key effectively "bypassed" activation. For Office ”14”, Office Activation Technologies help automate and manage the activation process while addressing the piracy and product key management problems that arose with keys issued for Microsoft Office Enterprise Key Management ServiceA solution where an organization installs a Key Management Service onto their server infrastructure. The KMS is authenticated against the Microsoft Clearing House once. Special KMS Licenses are included in SKUs that support KMS which cause the Client (or Server) product to activate against the KMS instead of the Clearing House. Each product must re-activate against the KMS after a set period to ensure the product is still being used in the same licensed environment. Multi Activation Product KeyThis Product Key allows multiple activations against the Clearing House or via a Proxy Activation Server. It is useful where customers do not want or require a Key Management Service. The customer purchases one MAK Product Key per agreement. The number of activations per MAK can be increased during the life of the agreement up to a set limit. The process of increasing the MAK activation count is managed by OSIT and is outside the scope of this Spec.
  13. Key Message:Overview of deployment and assessment solutions. Briefly discuss these topics as being key pieces to the MS assessment and deployment process. Several components within will be discussed in further detail during the presentation.Timing:Brief high-level overview of process, time permitting. Transition:Setup for following Windows Vista investment options carrying forward and Windows 7 Upgrade options.
