I would like to rebuild an existing SCCM environment to be simpler and more
up to date in SW.
Currently the environment is:
OS/SQL for the 5 servers in question is Server 2008 R2, SQL 2008 in
VMware.
Clients are XP / Vista / and Windows 7 Pro (NOT Enterprise) with some
Win 8.1 sprinkled in.
1 CAS
2 Primaries with MP-DP-Catalog
2 Internet based MP-DP-Catalog (one for each primary)
about 100 just DP's ( OS Win7 Pro thru Server 2003/8). There used to
be about 400.
SCCM 2012R2 CU 2 (to CU latest): We only use Asset Intelligence,
package deployment and Reporting. We do not image or do SUP (another team
using what they use), or anything else.
My focus is on going to 1 Primary, 1 Internet based MP/DP/Catalog in
VMware using Server 2012R2 and SQL 2012R2 (unlikely but maybe SQL 2014) as
well as the necessary number of just DP's ( we piggy back on existing
servers/workstations so they are what they are, and with no PXE ).
It would have to be done in parallel, exporting/importing what I can,
recreating what I need to, then migrating by boundary I suppose.
What advice to you have, links you know of, things you've been burned by,
etc. I am burning my way thru TechNet now.
Thanks for any and all help,
Dave
