You deploy Windows 7 by using Operating System Deployment (OSD).
The development task sequence contains steps to install software updates and Applications.
The amount of time required to deploy the Windows 7 image has increased significantly during the
last six months.
You need to recommend a solution to reduce the amount of time it takes to deploy the image.
What should you recommend?

Synchronize software updates before deploying the image.
B.
Use offline servicing for the image.
C.
Create a new automatic deployment rule.
D.
Add an additional Install Software Updates step to the deployment task sequence.

Configuration Manager 2012: Offline Servicing for Operating System Images
In Configuration Manager 2012 there is a new feature for applying updates to operating system
images while they are in the Configuration Manager library. This means any operating system image
you see in the Operating Systems > Operating Systems Images node from the Software Library
wunderbar can be updated with Component Based Servicing (CBS) updates. By updating an image in
the Software Library instead of performing a new build and capture of the operating system image
you will gain a few distinct advantages. You will be able to reduce the risk of vulnerabilities during
operating system deployments and reduce the overall operating system deployment to the end user.
You will also reduce the administrative effort to maintain your operating system images.
The feature is applicable for Component Based Servicing (CBS) updates and for the following
operating systems:Microsoft Windows Vista SP2 and later
Microsoft Windows Server 2008 SP2 and later
Microsoft Windows 7 RTM
Microsoft Windows 2008 R2
