Microsoft 365 Certified Endpoint Administrator (MD-102) Practice Test

Which approach is correct for installing Windows 10 and Microsoft Office 365 on multiple devices using the Microsoft Deployment Toolkit?

1. Create separate task sequences for Windows 10 and Office 365 installations.

2. Create a single task sequence for both Windows 10 and Office 365 installations.

3. Create a package that combines Windows 10 and Office 365 installation files.

4. Install Windows 10 and Office 365 manually on each device.

The correct answer is: Create a single task sequence for both Windows 10 and Office 365 installations.

Creating a single task sequence for both Windows 10 and Office 365 installations is the best approach when using the Microsoft Deployment Toolkit (MDT). This method streamlines the deployment process, allowing both the operating system and applications to be installed in a systematic and efficient manner. By implementing a combined task sequence, you can ensure that the system is fully configured in one go, which saves time and minimizes the possibility of errors that can arise from managing multiple separate processes. MDT allows you to customize the task sequence to accommodate specific configurations and settings required during both installations, which further enhances consistency across all devices receiving the same deployment. This method also leverages the capabilities of MDT in creating a comprehensive deployment solution, enabling you to manage both the operating system and applications in a cohesive environment. It enhances efficiency, allowing administrators to capture operating system customizations, application installations, and user settings in a unified approach, thus simplifying the management of multiple devices. While options such as creating separate task sequences for each installation and manual installation may provide some degree of flexibility, they do not offer the same level of efficiency and operational synergy as a single task sequence. Using a package that combines installation files could be an option, but it doesn't fully utilize the task sequence framework inherent to MDT
