Preparation
Creating the Replace Capture WSA Deployment Application
- In the Shopping Admin Console, right-click the Applications node and from its context menu, choose New Windows Servicing Assistant Deployment.
- On the Welcome screen, click Next.
On the General Details screen:
- Select Replace Capture from the Type of Windows Servicing Deployment drop-down.
- In the Name field, enter the name of this application as you want it to appear to the end-user in the wizard.
- Optionally enter a brief description in the Description field (note that the description, cost and icon are never displayed to the end-user for WSA Deployment Applications).
- Click Next.
On the Config Mgr collection screen:
- Select the Collection that the Capture Task Sequence was deployed to (see Preparation above).
- From the Deployment drop-down, select the deployment that was created to deploy the Capture Task Sequence to the Collection selected previously.
- Click Next.
On the Permissions screen:
- To set permissions on this deployment:
- If you want this Replace Capture WSA Deployment to be available to everyone, go to step b (i.e. do not restrict the deployment to any users or computers)
- If you want to restrict this Replace Capture WSA Deployment to specific users, click Add to the right of the User Permissions list and add the user or group that you want to restrict access to. Repeat to add multiple users or groups.
- If you want to restrict this Replace Capture WSA Deployment to specific computers, click Add to the right of the Machine Permissions list and add the computer or group that you want to restrict access to. Alternatively, click Add OU to add the OU that contains the computers that you want to restrict access to. Repeat to add multiple computers, groups or OUs.
- Click Next.
- To set permissions on this deployment:
- On the Completing the Windows Servicing Assistant Deployment Wizard screen, click Finish.
Configuring the Replace Capture WSA Deployment
Once the Replace Capture WSA Deployment has been created, it may be necessary to configure additional properties that are applicable specifically to Replace Capture deployments.
In the Shopping Admin Console, select the Applications node and double-click the Replace Capture WSA application you just created (it will be listed under WSA as illustrated – use the search feature if necesary) to open the Properties dialog box.
We are going to walk you through the each of the tabs in the Properties dialog for the Replace Capture WSA Deployment and show you what the respective settings do and how they impact the behavior of the deployment in terms of the user experience. There is a masterclass in how to create this deployment at the end of this section.
| The General tab is populated with the settings defined when the application was created. It controls what is displayed in the Start screen. You can change the name of the deployment (changing the description, cost and icon has no effect as these are never displayed to the end-user). However, Type cannot be changed.
|
| The ConfigMgr Collection tab is populated with the selections made when the application was created. These can be modified if necessary, but not recommended unless it is to correct an error. If you do modify these, ensure you select a deployment of a Replace Capture Task Sequence. If a Zero-touch Restore Deployment has been created and you want to enable zero-touch restore:
|
| The Permissions tab is populated with the selections made when the application was created. You can modify the permissions from this tab to restrict access to specific users and/or computers. |
| The Applications tab controls what users see on the Applications screen.
|
|
| The Storage tab controls the options available to the user depending on whether they are in the office or are remote (connected via VPN with no local peers). |
For Office based users:
For Remote users:Content will always be downloaded to the local Nomad cache as the assumption is there will be no local peers:
Hash checking: WSA will perform a content hash check on all downloaded content as part of the readiness checks. As the readiness checks may be run a second time (when the user actually starts the deployment), including the hash check at this time can be time consuming and confusing to the user. This option prevents content hash checks if they have already been done in the last 30 minutes. The value is configurable between 0 and 480 minutes (8 hours) - 0 will result in hash checks always being performed. |
| The Data Capture tab controls the options available to the user on the User Backup screen.
|
For the office location:For machines in the office, select one of the following:
For the remote location:For machines that are remote (Remote Location), select one of the following:

Data capture exceptions and how to fix them
These must be resolved before the deployment can continue:
We've found something that prevents us from continuing at this time. Please retry later, or contact your administrator if the issue continues to occur.
