baramundi pilot environment

Enzkreis District Office · IT and Digitalization Department

  1. ProblemEvaluate a possible future replacement of Matrix42 Empirum.

    PurposeAssess a maintainable alternative to the existing endpoint-management system. Empirum required specialist packaging scripts; faults and maintenance effort made deployment harder.

    ImplementationThe assessment was limited to a scoped baramundi pilot with reference clients. It covered the path from network boot to an inventoried Windows installation.

    ScopeThe pilot provides a technical basis for a decision. Replacing the production environment was outside the scope of this project report.

  2. My taskPlan, build, test and document a clearly scoped baramundi pilot environment.

    PurposeCombine planning, implementation, testing and documentation within 40 hours of net project time.

    ImplementationPrepare the virtual server and service accounts, configure baramundi and its database connection, create deployment jobs and verify the process on reference clients.

    ScopeThe report documents prerequisites, configuration and troubleshooting. Five reference clients were planned; four were completed within the available time.

  3. ImplementationVMware vSphere, Windows Server, Active Directory, Microsoft SQL Server and the necessary network and deployment services.

    PurposeConnect the required services so a client can be deployed without local installation media.

    ImplementationVMware vSphere and Windows Server provide the server foundation. Active Directory handles identities and permissions; SQL stores management data. DIP, PXE/TFTP and WinPE connect installation sources, network boot and Windows Setup.

    ScopeSeparate jobs handle the operating system, baseline software and inventory. Applications can therefore be maintained independently of the Windows image.

  4. ResultFour Windows 11 reference clients fully deployed and inventoried, including baseline software.

    PurposeVerify complete deployment, including baseline software and inventory collection.

    ImplementationFour Windows 11 reference clients successfully completed the intended jobs. Inventory data and job status were used to check the outcome.

    ScopeFour successful out of four completed test runs, with five clients planned. The success rate refers only to these pilot tests, not to an organisation-wide migration.

    A pilot, not a full production migration.

  5. Technical focusTroubleshooting across the network, WinPE, drivers and Windows Setup.

    PurposeIdentify the failing stage instead of changing the entire process by trial and error.

    ImplementationFirst investigate Empirum/PXE interference, then network drivers in WinPE and model-specific Windows drivers. A generic installation key resolved the failure in Windows Setup.

    ScopeNetwork boot, the preinstallation environment and operating-system setup have different prerequisites. The documented analysis distinguishes each cause from its corresponding correction.

Technology, explained

Select a term to read its explanation.

VMware vSphere
Virtualization

Several virtual servers run on shared physical infrastructure, allowing the pilot environment’s services to be deployed separately.

Windows Server
Server operating system

Provides the foundation for central services such as user management and network deployment.

Active Directory
Central management

Manages users and computers in a domain and enables shared policies and permissions.

Microsoft SQL Server
Database

Stores the management and inventory data required by the baramundi environment.

DHCP
Network configuration

Automatically provides computers with their IP configuration so they can communicate on the intended network.

PXE
Network boot

The computer loads its boot environment over the network; no local installation medium is required.

WinPE
Deployment environment

A lightweight Windows environment starts before the actual operating system and prepares its installation.

Let’s talk

Technology interests me most when it solves real problems.

I am looking for opportunities in systems integration, infrastructure and Cloud Engineering where I can take responsibility and continue developing my expertise.
