SCCM 2012 R2 CU1 upgrade procedure

Recommended Posts

I've been building out a new SCCM 2012 R2 environment over the past couple of weeks, and just noticed that Cumulative Update 1 was released. I just applied it to my stand-alone Primary, which seems to have gone well. It created a number of resultant hotfixes that need to be pushed out in my fledgling SCCM environment.

 

While I’m pretty clear on most of it, I'm not entirely sure where to send the “server” hotfix. What would qualify an SCCM server as needing the hotfix? Is it any server that’s listed as “Site Server” in the SCCM console? Right now, (besides my Primary) I just have a separate SQL box (roles are “Component Server, Reporting Service Point, Site Database Server, and Site System”) and a separate Distribution Point (roles are “Distribution Point and Site System”). I would guess that both of those would qualify for distribution of the hotfix, but I'm not positive. I don't know whether only full Secondary sites need the hotfix, any Site Server at all, or some other criteria.

 

Thanks for any input.

I spent some time dredging the 'Net last night too, and while I didn't find anything that's 100% definitive, I don't think that the server hotfix needs to be installed on anything except:

 

-Central Servers

-Primary Servers

-Secondary Servers

-Remote SMS Providers

 

If I'm understanding everything correctly, even though the SQL server and Distribution Point are "Site System Servers" according to the SCCM 2012 console, I don't believe they need the hotfix. (I did choose to patch the Site Database itself during the upgrade, but that was done directly from the Primary server as part of the main CU1 update.)
