When I use SCCM to build a VHD, does it generalize the VHD for use as a master 
VM automatically or is it making an image that is suitable for only a single VM?

When I pass the VHD that SCCM creates to the Virtualization team, is that VM 
going to be generalized, or does VMM take care of generalizing the VHD, or if 
we want to end up with 40 personal/persistent VMs, do I need to create 40 VHDs 
and hand them all off to the Virtualization team.

Similarly, is it possible to use SCCM 2012 R2 to create a VHD that is suitable 
for pooled use?  Does my task sequence have to take care of the generalization?

I guess what I don't know is, it feels like I should be using a TS that is 
similar to Build and Capture to build these VHDs so that they can be used as 
templates for new machines in VMM rather than a standard deployment TS where 
there is a one-to-one VHD to VM relationship.

There are 1000 blogs out there with screenshots of how to create the VHD in 
SCCM 2012r2, but they are all very light on discussion or guidance.   Create 
the VHD and hand it off/upload it  to VMM.... And then what?
