using SCCM 2012 in a LAB - Part 1. Installation

[Peter van der Woude]

Well, scaling can be a reason to split roles, but often disk space isn't one of them. With the right hardware a single box should be sufficient.

Hello All,

 

Rookie question but here it goes...I have SQL 2012 and SCCM 2012 R2 on seperate servers (clean installs without any configuring within SCCM done yet). Can I use a DFS share on a third server for all of the file repositories and shared directories (in particular: SMSPKGI$, SMSPKGSIG, and SMSSIG) needed for SCCM? If so, can I then migrate them to the SCCM server at a later date? I don't have the ability to add a volume (at this time) to put the files on the SCCM server until we break off from our parent company in a month.

 

Thanks in advance,

 

Tucker

is ConfigMgr running on a Virtual Machine on your laptop ?

what is the 'crash' error message ?

Do I really need to create all these groups and users, above, for a single site supporting 500 devices tops? What happens if I just use one SCCM user account and set the SQL DB up Local System?

HI Team,

 

This guide is awesome. I have small trouble on the below part:

"Delegate Permission to the System Management Container. "

 

instead of adding the sccm computer, i can not see the computer on that container. i am delegating but can't see the computer in that container.
