Configuring features on demand ( Alternate Source Location) on windows servers

I have a task to configure an Alternate source location for all the server OS in my organization, that include server 2003, Server 2008 and Server 2012. I rested using a GPO and file share for server 2012 and that was successfully.
How do I configure the same process( An Alternate source location) to support multiple server OS ?

This question does not seem to be clearly outlined. I am not sure what you are exactly asking here.

Are you looking for a DR continuity setup (having a mirror of your production systems at another co-location)?

All, thanks for your suggestions, I successfully tested Shaun's recommendation and it worked for Server 2012.
My Problem is I implemented WSUS on Server 2012 in my organization, now Servers are no longer able to reach Microsoft directly for files no on their local drives. What configuration do you recommend to allow 2003, and 2008 servers to get access to source files not on their local drives.

Thanks,
