MetaData specifies a Windows edition or image in a Windows® image (.wim) file.

Use the Key and Value settings together to select a Windows edition or image based on the index, the name, or the description of the image.

Use the DISM /Get-ImageInfo command to determine which images and editions are included on your Windows DVD or Windows image (.wim) file. For instructions on how to select a Windows image using the MetaData setting, see the Best Practices for Image Deployment topic in the Windows® Assessment and Deployment Kit (Windows ADK) Technical Reference.

XML Examples

The following XML output shows how to configure the ImageInstall setting to install a specific Windows image from the Windows DVD by using the image index value:

<ImageInstall>
    <OSImage>
        <InstallFrom>
            <MetaData wcm:action="add">
                <Key>/IMAGE/INDEX</Key>
                <Value>2</Value>
            </MetaData>
        </InstallFrom>
        <InstallTo>
            <DiskID>0</DiskID>
            <PartitionID>3</PartitionID>
        </InstallTo>
    </OSImage>
</ImageInstall>

The following XML output shows how to configure the ImageInstall setting to install a specific Windows image from a custom Windows image file (.wim) located on a network share. Windows Setup selects the image from the LaptopImages.wim file by referencing the image description of a fictional laptop model named "Model FNB1".

<ImageInstall>
    <OSImage>
        <InstallFrom>
            <Credentials>
                <Domain>FabrikamDomain</Domain>
                <Password>MyPassword</Password>
                <Username>MyUsername</Username>
            </Credentials>
            <Path>\\server\share\CustomWindowsImages\LaptopImages.wim</Path>
            <MetaData wcm:action="add">
                <Key>/IMAGE/DESCRIPTION</Key>
                <Value>Model FNB1</Value>
            </MetaData>
        </InstallFrom>
        <InstallTo>
            <DiskID>0</DiskID>
            <PartitionID>3</PartitionID>
        </InstallTo>
        <WillShowUI>OnError</WillShowUI>
