I don’t think that’s been explicitly defined; however, it’s not unusual for them to require you to be at the latest SP to update to the next version. Also, SP2 fixes a whole load of things and R2 thereafter if you are entitled to it (remember that R2 is not free and you can’t just go to it unless you have SA or purchased it as R2) and both are fairly painless. There have been very few issues reported with the actual upgrade (other than some minor OSD issues mainly related to folks not updating their boot images) and it goes fairly quick. Thus, going to SP2 in the near term is still a good idea.

Do we know what the supported upgrade paths will be to the new ConfigMgr? I’ll postpone our plans if we can go straight from 2012 SP1 to the new version. Daniel.
