If you are using the Dell Server Deployment Pack 2.1.0.2 with Configuration Manager 2012 (SP1), and you want to upgrade to Configuration Manager 2012 R2, make sure that your site system operating system is Server 2012 R2.
If you try to use DSDP 2.1.0.2 with ConfigMgr 2012 R2 running on a site system using Server 2012, you will get an error message similar to the picture below when trying to Update Distribution Points with new Boot Images. This error is because of a down-level OS with an up-level ConfigMgr because DISM is used to inject those drivers and DISM on the down-level OS cannot inject the drivers into an up-level boot image.
The prerequisites for DSDP 2.1.0.2 are documented in the Readme inside the DSDP 2.1 SP2 download package.
* Prerequisites of this service pack:
- System Center 2012 Configuration Manager R2 with kb#2907591,
System Center 2012 Configuration Manager,
System Center 2012 Configuration Manager SP1
- Dell Server Deployment Pack Version 2.1 or Dell Server Deployment Pack
Version 2.1.0.1
- For System Center 2012 Configuration Manager R2 the supported Site system
Operating System is Windows Server 2012 R2
"Failed to insert OSD binaries into the WIM file"
There is a work around for this. But you have to copy the boot image to another machine, running the newer DISM, and manually inject the drivers, copy the boot image back, and import it as a new boot image. I have documented this here: http://bradsjumpbag.blogspot.com/2014/08/get-configmgr-to-configure-raid-array.html
