red400r Posted November 28, 2012 Report post Posted November 28, 2012 I would have thought so, since RTM supports SP1 beta... but then I don't work for Microsoft! ;-) It's a good question, RTM and SP1 beta to SP1 final even?

SP1 beta to SP1 final will not be a supported route, SP1 beta is for lab use only (not production) http://www.niallbrady.com/2012/06/20/how-can-i-upgrade-system-center-2012-configuration-manager/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Posted November 29, 2012 Report post Posted November 29, 2012 in my case I will only have a primary site server and 4 other site server, so I'll upgrade the primary site to SP1, do I have to do anything to the other site servers(these servers will only have DP and PXE role installed)?

jimmyt Posted November 29, 2012 Report post Posted November 29, 2012 what is the release date for SP1? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramlan Posted November 29, 2012 Report post Posted November 29, 2012 I thought of revamping home lab with CAS & PRI CM2012 sp1 beta (this weekend). Maybe, I will wait for the final release of sp1 and setup home lab with CAS & PRI. What do you guys suggest? Should I go ahead revamp the lab with sp1 beta? I read sp1 final release will be early 2013. That is too long for me to wait. Planning to get technet pro subscription as well in order to avoid eval version install so, I can keep home lab PERMANENT for learning/testing.

Peter van der Woude Posted November 29, 2012 Report post Posted November 29, 2012 I always run the latest versions in my lab, even if that means that I have to rebuild it sometimes. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
