Upgrading to latest version

Recommended Posts

Forgive me if this has been covered.

Taking over management of our SCCM and need to upgrade it for compatibility with Windows Server 2012 R2.

We have multiple 2012 R2 servers that have the client installed but remain un-managed by SCEP.

Reading here it seems that our version does not fully support 2012 R2.

Referring to this we have

ConfigMgr 2012 R2 SP1 5.00.8239.1000

Just need to know what to download and is involved in this upgrade.

 

Thanks in advance for any help.

First of all, Welcome to SCCM!

Secondly, I would advise not making any changes until you get a better feel for your environment. The SCCM product team has really come a long way in the past couple of years so while I think upgrading to the latest build is a good idea I wouldn't jump in before doing my research. If your biggest need right now is getting your 2012 R2 servers managed through SCEP then check your client settings to verify that you have a computer policy deployed to these servers that manages Endpoint Protection. i'm hesitant to lead you to any one area without knowing more about your environment. Check out these guides - they really helped me when I was first getting started.

Thanks T&E,

Wish I had the luxury of time to research SCCM more.

If I had my choice, the whole thing would be torn down and re-started from scratch, but alas, like most things in IT, we need this fixed yesterday. :D

Our main issue is getting SCEP installed and managed for all Servers, Workstations and Laptops.

After researching and troubleshooting the issue to death for some time now, it seems Server 2012 R2 is not supported by our current SCCM version.

Deploying and managing SCEP is the only thing our SCCM has been setup to do, so an upgrade looks like the only option.

If anyone knows different, I'm all ears.

Once this is fixed, the plan is to dive deeply into anyweb's guides and anything else I can find on SCCM. I've learned a ton already.

Thanks again.
