I can't import install.wim from a Windows 10 .iso to WDS. Has anyone else ever tried Win10 with WDS?

I found the issue. I was using an ISO created by the Media Creation Tool. That isn't compatible with WDS. I was then directed to this ISO http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/techbench
It imported to WDS. *(it is appended saying technical preview though but through forums I was told this is the only RTM there is so it is only a matter of having a valid product key.)

Make sure you use the new windows 10 ADK,
Then you have to run the DISM as administrator and change the current compression sheme to make it deployable.
C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\Assessment and Deployment Kit\Deployment Tools> dism.exe /Export-Image/SourceImageFile:E:\sources\install.wim /SourceIndex:1 /DestinationImageFile:C:\ExportedWim\install.wim /Compress:max

When I put in that command and hit return I get the '>>' prompt. I'm not too sure what to follow up with. Thoughts?

That means somewhere I've messed up...and didn't add enough information into the command....let me check it out again. I'll try to do so today!
[added] I checked the command and it looks correct. I'm not sure where there is a syntax error here. Check your drive letters and verify they are the correct source and destination where you want the exported wim to be. I'm at a loss right now.
[alternative] The other thing you could do is to install Windows 10 into a VM, update it then sysprep and capture it for WDS deployment.

Hi Ronny, thank you so much for giving me that information and double checking it. Looking closer I found some variations in the command posted. but with a little examination I was able to tailor it for my server. It was my syntax.
