About this tag
Configuration Manager OSD (Operating System Deployment) is a key component of Microsoft Configuration Manager (ConfigMgr) for deploying Windows images to bare-metal systems. With the retirement of the Microsoft Deployment Toolkit (MDT), IT administrators are migrating task sequences and imaging workflows to Configuration Manager OSD or cloud-based alternatives like Windows Autopilot.

Configuration Manager OSD remains essential for recovery, refresh, and large-scale Windows deployments in enterprise environments.
