Add task group

Add task group

A default installation includes two sample task groups for partitioning and formatting a drive for Mac OS X and Windows. You can add and manage task groups that best suit your business needs, to easily reuse common deployment scenarios, and associate task groups with system images, scripted installations, or custom deployments, as applicable.

The process of creating tasks for Mac OS X, Windows, and Linux are the same, however the collection of tasks available for these two operating systems is different, and it only contains the tasks that apply to the respective runtime environment.
